Reliable long-form transcription API

Create a transcription service that guarantees completion for hour-long recordings. Serve podcasters, researchers, and journalists who lose work when services fail.

Who for
Media professionals and researchers
Business model
Pay-per-minute API
Effort
A few weeks

Researchers and journalists waste hours when transcription services fail at 95% completion on long recordings.

Build a fault-tolerant API with automatic resume capabilities and progress saving, with pay-per-minute pricing.

Media professionals and academic researchers would pay premium rates for guaranteed completion.

MVP: A simple upload interface with persistent connections and redundant processing nodes.

Risk: Large file storage costs could eat into margins at scale.
