Summary
Overview
Auphonic automates the dull parts of audio post-production: balancing levels, hitting loudness targets and reducing noise, plus speech recognition. It is a quick final pass for podcasts and video rather than an editor. The free plan gives a couple of hours a month. Check Auphonic’s pricing page for current figures.
