GotVoice’s New Transcription Engine
As mentioned previously, GotVoice has a new transcription engine. Unlike earlier engines, this one is built for scalability, which, interestingly enough, has nothing to do with the type of scale I have in my bathroom. There are two reasons it’s so cool. First, it works with any existing voicemail system. Second, because it uses free-form speech technology it provides better quality at a lower price than anything else on the market. It usually takes them a while to understand, but every friend I’ve told gets incredibly excited when I explain this service to them. It’s kind of like the olden days when transcriptionists sat in rooms typing out messages only not. Back then, of course, all of the transcriptionists were in black and white, except some of them were in color, and that is how this service is too.
I haven’t heard a review yet from Neil Cumpston, but I imagine he would only be more excited if they made a sequel to 300, and called it 300 - 299: what happens to the one guy who makes it. It wouldn’t be as cool as the original since there would only be one guy and he would only have one eye. It would probably be all about how he invented the eyepatch and the movie would be all about him wandering around without any depth perception and tripping a lot and getting things in the place where his eye used to be until he discovers elastic and connects it to a patch of cloth and uses it to cover his blind eye. It would have lots of heavy metal music and be in slow motion every time he tripped over a rock or wiped dirt out of his eye. And there would be a sweet montage of him cutting the cloth and connecting it to the elastic and then even more heavy metal music and super slow motion as he would stretch the elastic and cover his blind eye and yell a bunch. Man, eyepatches are so awesome. I would totally go see that movie.
