Turn any audio or video into a searchable, speaker-labeled transcript on your own infrastructure — no cloud upload, no per-minute fees, your data stays yours.
A live product on the CloviTek platform — self-hosted transcription with speaker labels, AI summaries, and full-text search across your whole library.
CloviTranscribe turns any audio or video file into a searchable, speaker-labeled transcript that runs on your own infrastructure — no cloud upload and no per-minute billing. It pairs accurate speech-to-text with speaker diarization and CloviAI Engine summaries, so a raw recording becomes a structured record of who said what, what was decided, and what to do next.
Most transcription is cloud-only and billed by the minute — a non-starter for the operators, producers, and builders who have data-residency rules or unpredictable volume. CloviTranscribe owns the self-hosted, flat-rate corner: full transcription depth with complete data control, on hardware you already run.
Automatic speech recognition is an $8.6B global market growing at roughly 17% a year — and it is dominated by cloud-only, per-minute pricing that a meaningful slice of buyers simply cannot use.
Cloud transcribers require you to hand over your recordings and pay for every minute. CloviTranscribe inverts both: it runs where your data already lives and bills a flat rate, so volume never becomes a penalty and privacy is the default, not an upgrade.
The real capability set behind CloviTranscribe — designed, built, and run by our composed AI team.
Upload MP3, MP4, WAV, or paste a public media link and get accurate speech-to-text back in minutes — faster than realtime, across 99 languages.
Automatically labels who said what for up to 8 speakers. Rename speakers in the viewer and the labels persist — tested against background noise and non-native English.
The CloviAI Engine generates a TL;DR, action items, key decisions, and open questions right in the transcript viewer, with one-click copy per section.
Every stored transcript is indexed. Find any phrase, decision, or speaker across your whole library — turning a one-off tool into a searchable knowledge base.
TXT for plain text, SRT/VTT for captions, and JSON with word-level timestamps — on every tier. Business adds custom vocabulary and a premium-accuracy mode.
Submit jobs programmatically, receive an HMAC-signed webhook on completion, and embed transcription inside your own SaaS — custom white-label subdomain included.
Zero-friction activation for every CloviTek account via single sign-on, and native bridges to CloviLeads for action items and CloviNarrate for narration scripts.
Flat-rate plans mean transcription volume never triggers a surprise bill — run unlimited jobs on hardware you have already provisioned.
Send any transcript to CloviPDF for a formatted document with speaker labels and timestamps, ready to share or archive.
How CloviTranscribe stacks up against cloud-only transcription tools on the things privacy-minded teams actually care about.

CloviTranscribe composes shared platform infrastructure and a purpose-built transcription engine — the integrated foundation that makes it faster to ship and stickier to keep.
Because CloviTranscribe is built on the CloviTek platform engine, it inherits shared authentication, billing, and subscription infrastructure on day one — and plugs directly into sibling products in the fleet.
CloviTranscribe opens up to your own tooling through a developer API and signed webhooks, and bridges natively into the CloviTek fleet.
Runs 15 vendor calls a week in a compliance-sensitive shop where IT blocks cloud transcription. Values self-hosted deployment and structured export for audits.
Pro tier
Produces three B2B shows whose clients demand private transcripts kept off third-party SaaS. Needs a white-label option and no per-minute overage.
Business tier
Needs to embed transcription inside a product where customers require on-premise data. Needs an API, signed webhooks, and a data-processing agreement.
Business tierOperations teams in food distribution, legal, HR, and field services capture 15+ compliance-sensitive calls a week where IT blocks cloud tools.
Producers and creators deliver diarized transcripts and show notes without minute caps or third-party cloud privacy concerns.
HR platforms, compliance tools, and meeting-intelligence products embed the API and webhooks with no per-minute cost surprises.
Audiobook and training-video producers generate closed captions and searchable transcripts, with SRT export and accuracy QA via transcript diff.
Researchers and academics transcribe interviews, lectures, and focus groups in bulk with structured export and full-text search.
Food and agriculture companies process call recordings for USDA and FSMA compliance with data residency locked and a searchable audit trail.
