Why use Fireflies for Dutch transcription?

Here are 4 reasons why you should choose Fireflies for transcribing your audio and video files in Dutch:

• Provides AI-generated summary for quick reviews
• Guarantees the highest security for your data
• Offers advanced Collaboration features
• Highly cost-effective solution

1. Provides customizable AI-generated summaries for quick reviews

Apart from the accurate transcription, Fireflies also generates AI summaries of your audio file, highlighting the key points in the conversation.

Instead of going through an entire transcript or listening to the whole audio, you can simply read the AI-generated summary and understand the gist of the audio within seconds.

You can customize this summary by giving personalized commands in the Super Summary apps.

2. Guarantees the highest security for your data

Fireflies is GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 Type II certified. Its database is housed in a Virtual Private Cloud with AWS, while the servers are hosted on Google Cloud. Additionally, Fireflies also provides private storage options.

Moreover, all of your data in AWS S3 is completely encrypted both at rest and during transit.

This ensures the privacy of your voice data because no one can access your recordings, unlike manual transcribers, who need to listen to your audio file to create transcripts.
