Taiwan-made AI speech-to-text tool from TaiLexi AI optimized for Traditional Chinese, with meeting transcription and summaries.
AutoMemo (オートメモ) is a transcription AI developed, sold, and supported by Sourcenext Corporation in Japan. It is built around a multi-surface approach: users can capture audio through a web browser app, a dedicated smartphone app, or standalone hardware voice recorders (the AutoMemo S and AutoMemo R devices), and the captured audio is automatically converted to text. The service uses a Whisper-based speech recognition engine, automatically inserts punctuation, removes filler words such as Japanese hesitation sounds, and recognizes speakers so that transcription results are divided into speaker blocks. On top of the transcript, AutoMemo can automatically generate summaries and extract to-do items and deadlines, and it has added features such as AI-generated titles for recordings. Audio and transcripts are saved to the cloud for later editing, searching, and sharing. AutoMemo positions itself for business meetings, interviews, and lecture capture in Japanese-language workflows, and offers a limited free transcription allowance with paid plans for higher usage. It remains actively developed and marketed in 2025/2026. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

LexiTranscript is an AI speech-to-text and transcription tool developed by TaiLexi AI, a Taiwan-based legal AI team, and is offered through its online transcription product. It is optimized for the Taiwan market and Traditional Chinese, and is built to handle mixed Chinese-and-English sentences and Taiwanese-accented speech, with the company stating high recognition accuracy even in the presence of background noise. The tool converts uploaded audio and video into text quickly, supports common video formats such as MP4, MOV, AVI, and WebM, and provides speaker identification for multi-person recordings such as meetings and interviews. Beyond raw transcription it offers AI-assisted proofreading that removes filler words and corrects phrasing, automatic personal-data masking, and recognition of legal terminology, reflecting its origins as a legal-focused team, along with AI-generated summaries of transcripts. For privacy, LexiTranscript follows a delete-after-processing policy in which audio files are not retained on its servers or used to train models after transcription completes. It provides daily free credits without requiring a complex account or credit card, positioning itself as a cost-effective Traditional Chinese transcription option for meetings, interviews, lectures, and legal work. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
