Hi Eric,

I have used Otter.ai for school and at work. It can transcribe audio from
videos through uploading the video, or pasting a URL. The different options
(free, pro, business) have limits on how many minutes of transcription it
will do, and the length of the video (for the free account). I usually
have to go into the transcript afterwards and make edits to some of the
text since it is not perfect. I also like that it tries to help identify
who is speaking in the transcript, and you can share or export the
transcripts.

Kind regards,
Allyson
