Welcome to the show. Could you walk us through how Le Scribe Audio leverages direct multimodal audio processing instead of chaining traditional speech-to-text with post-processing?
Certainly. Traditional pipelines suffer from compounding errors: acoustic loss, poor punctuation, and hallucinated repetition. By streaming raw audio directly to the Gemini 4 multimodal foundation model, we preserve exact inflections, technical acronyms, and seamless code-switching across languages.
How does our 3-step transcription work?
From raw recording to finalized Word document in just a few minutes (~10 min for 1h of audio).
Upload Your File
Drag and drop your MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, MOV, or DS2 files. Our invisible audio stitching technology processes recordings from 10 seconds up to 10 continuous hours without cutoffs.
Gemini 4 Transcribes
The multimodal model analyzes raw acoustics directly, separates speakers (automatic diarization), punctuates sentences, and refines syntax. It supports 100+ languages and natively handles bilingual code-switching within the same file.
Listen, Edit & Export
Click any paragraph to jump to that exact moment in the synchronized audio player. Rename speakers in 1 click (e.g. Speaker 1 → Dr. Smith) across the entire document and export to Word (.docx), PDF, or Subtitles (.srt/.vtt).

Why Le Scribe Audio delivers the highest accuracy on the market.
By combining Gemini 4 on Google Cloud Vertex AI with our proprietary invisible audio stitching engine, our benchmark across 10 leading transcription tools demonstrates 2.5x fewer manual corrections required during human review.
Native Multimodal Audio
Unlike legacy Speech-to-Text tools (Whisper) that blindly convert sound into phonemes, Gemini 4 reasons directly over the acoustic wave, combining intonation, context, and domain terminology.
Invisible Stitching (10h)
On long recordings, standard AI models saturate and hallucinate loops. Our engine slices audio into optimal acoustic windows and reassembles them with invisible seams without attention drift.
French & EU Sovereignty
Encrypted sovereign storage on OVHcloud France (Roubaix, AES-256) and Google Cloud Europe inference under a strict Zero Data Training agreement with 1-click deletion.
