What it is

Goldcast is a B2B event platform with strong AI repurposing features via its Content Lab module. After a webinar or session ends, Content Lab produces short clips suitable for LinkedIn and YouTube Shorts, AI-generated blog posts, social copy, and email summaries — all from the source transcript and recording. The product is positioned for B2B marketing teams that want every webinar to yield twenty downstream content assets rather than one on-demand replay. Goldcast raised a Series B led by Norwest in 2024.

Best for: B2B marketing teams running webinars and events who want AI to repurpose recordings into clips, blog posts, and social.
Watch out for: Enterprise sales motion; Content Lab pricing typically rolls into an annual platform contract.

Can I automate Goldcast-style transcription without running it myself?

Yes. If what you want is transcripts rather than the tool itself, Whipscribe does the same job as a hosted API: submit a file or URL, poll a job id, pull the result as txt, json, srt, vtt or docx. $0.012 a minute — about $0.72 an audio hour — bought as credits that never expire. The automation recipes on this site show it wired to Drive folders, Zoom recordings, S3 buckets and no-code platforms.

How is Whipscribe different from Goldcast?

Goldcast is another vendor's product; Whipscribe is a per-minute transcription service. Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and never used for training, and every job returns five formats plus an AI summary, quotes and topics. The first 20 minutes of any recording are transcribed free, and a pack from $6 (500 minutes) transcribes the rest and opens every export.

What does transcription cost if I use Whipscribe instead of Goldcast?

$0.012 a minute — about $0.72 an audio hour — bought as credits that never expire. There is no subscription and no monthly minimum: a 3-hour recording is about $2.16, a thousand-hour archive is about $720 once. The first 20 minutes of any recording are transcribed free, and a pack from $6 (500 minutes) transcribes the rest and opens every export, so you can see what your recording holds before paying anything.

Where is the Goldcast category heading?

Three things are moving across the whole speech-to-text market right now: summaries, action items and speaker insights generated on top of the transcript rather than sold separately; private, secured deployment where the audio never leaves a boundary you control; and agent access — transcription exposed as a tool that Claude, Cursor or a workflow runner can call directly. Whipscribe ships all three today: per-job insights, our own servers, and an MCP server.

Whipscribe is a hosted transcription service. If you want transcripts without running infrastructure, paste a URL or drop a file in the form below — you'll have a transcript in seconds.
