Trint turns recordings into transcripts built for newsrooms and media teams, adding live transcription, translation and a tool for reordering clips into a rough cut. Because every self-serve plan is billed per seat with no free tier, whether it suits you comes down to the live-capture and newsroom links rather than price alone.
What is Trint?
Trint is a UK company. It runs as a cloud web app, with an Android app listed on Google Play, and processes audio and video on Trint's own AWS-hosted servers rather than on your device.
What you get from a recording
Trint transcribes in 50+ languages and translates in 70+ languages, with unlimited transcription and translation on every plan under a fair-use policy. Story Builder, also called Rough Cuts, pulls key moments out of a recording and lets you reorder them into a new sequence, playing audio or video back in order with timecodes synced to the source transcript.
AI-generated summaries surface key takeaways from a transcript in seconds. A Caption Editor adds captions that export as SRT, and transcripts also export to DOCX. Trint Live adds live transcription from a microphone, screen or broadcast stream, capped at one hour a month on Pro and one hour per seat a month on Team.
Working with other people
Team plans support up to five members collaborating through Shared Drives for projects; a Business plan above it removes that seat cap. Integrations include ENPS, Octopus Newsroom, Mimir and Saga for newsroom systems, LiveU for broadcast recordings, Box, Google Drive and Dropbox for storage, and Zapier for other workflows. API access and SSO with SCIM for organization-wide account provisioning are Business-plan features.
Trint pricing: what each plan gives
There's no free plan, only a trial. Pro, for one person, costs $100 a month, or $79 a month billed annually ($948 a year). Team, for two to five people, costs $90 a seat a month, or $69 a seat billed annually ($828 a seat a year). A separately quoted Business plan sits above Team and adds API access, SSO and unlimited team members.
Privacy and support
Trint does not train on your work: "we never listen to your recordings to train our algorithms," and it never trains its algorithms on transcripts. It's ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials certified, with data encrypted in transit and at rest, and is fully GDPR compliant. Support runs through in-app chat and a help center.
Who Trint suits
Trint suits newsrooms, broadcasters and media teams who need live transcription during a call or broadcast, plus direct links into ENPS, Octopus Newsroom and LiveU. Story Builder's timecode-synced clip reordering suits editors assembling a rough cut from a longer interview or recording.
It suits less well someone working alone on a tight budget, since every self-serve plan is billed per seat with no free tier.
