What users say

Whisperr review

“I love how easy Whisperr is to use and how it accurately understands and translates text and speech across different languages. It's so effective that even in scenarios where other tools might fail, Whisperr performs perfectly. Additionally, the ability to select languages for translation directly on a phone is fantastic. This feature helps us translate church services, ensuring everyone understands without missing anything important. The initial setup was straightforward, making it smooth to start using immediately.”

Top-Notch Speech Recognition and Flashcard-Style Translations for Fast Study

“Whisperr's speech recognition and translation quality are both top-notch, and better than similar tools I've tried so far. Beyond that, as a Japanese learner, I especially like how Whisperr displays each sentence and its translation almost like flashcards, with a text-to-speech button for each one. That setup makes studying feel fast and efficient, and it's easy to review sentence by sentence.”

Recruiting and onboarding translation FAQ

Does the other person need to install anything?+
No. On a Whisperr Call or a Room link, they open the link in a browser with no app and no account. Only the desktop app route needs an install, on each computer that uses it.
Can I use it for employment contracts or safety training?+
Use it to talk them through, not as the record. Whisperr is not a certified interpreter. Confirm contracts, prices and anything legally binding in writing, and use a qualified human interpreter where one is required. Required safety training and contracts should be in a language the worker understands.
Is it fair to assess a candidate through a translation?+
Treat it as a way to talk, not a test. Translation can lose nuance, so ask the candidate to repeat anything important and do not judge wording alone.
Can a candidate join from a phone?+
Yes. They open the link in a phone browser, with no app and no account.
Is the call recorded?+
Audio is never saved. On a Whisperr Call, the transcript is saved to the host’s account only if Save this call is on. Tell people on the call if you keep a transcript or send the bot.
Is it free?+
You can try it free, but free calls stop at 2 minutes unless the host has a plan, so it will not cover a full interview. Meeting Bot needs a subscription. Paid plans are a flat fee with unlimited use and no per-minute or per-language metering. Files you upload have their own monthly minutes.
