Sonix is transcription software that turns audio and video recordings into text with timestamps and speaker labels. It supports 54+ languages, translates transcripts into the same set, and adds AI summaries, chapters and sentiment analysis on top. Files and documents can sit in one workspace, so you can search or ask questions across every transcript at once. Pricing starts with Pay As You Go at $10 per hour, then moves to subscriptions: Core at $25 per month, Advanced at $50 and Pro at $80, with a 30 minute free trial for new accounts.
Journalists use it to pull quotes from interviews, researchers to code focus groups, and filmmakers to cut subtitles from footage. Legal teams, medical practices and enterprise departments can rely on its HIPAA-compliant handling, SOC 2 Type II report and a policy of not training on customer data. Solo creators will find the Core plan enough for steady work, while production teams can add seats at $25 per month each and share folders with permissions. Educators and students working with lectures also fit, since the editor runs in the browser and needs no installation.
Typical workflows start with uploading a deposition, podcast or meeting recording and getting an editable transcript in minutes. Video editors export SRT or VTT subtitle files, or burn captions into the video. Clinicians generate SOAP notes and look up ICD-10 codes from consultations, and analysts compare sentiment across a folder of customer calls. Transcripts export as DOCX, PDF or TXT, and shareable links with an embeddable media player let colleagues review the source audio next to the text. Integrations include Zoom, Teams, Zapier and Adobe Premiere, and an API plus webhooks cover automated pipelines.
