Transcripts for healthcare research.

Clinical interviews and research recordings on private infrastructure. Honest upfront: we are not a HIPAA-covered BAA provider today. This page helps you evaluate the fit for non-PHI and de-identified work regardless.

Our HIPAA posture, honestly.

We are not a HIPAA-covered business associate today. We do not offer a Business Associate Agreement (BAA). Do not upload PHI to Whipscribe. If your workflow requires a BAA, a HIPAA-compliant provider is the right choice; we would rather tell you that clearly than let you find out later. For de-identified research recordings, IRB-scoped interviews with explicit consent, and general clinical-research audio without PHI, Whipscribe's private Whisper, no-third-party-transcription-service path, and no-model-training-on-uploads posture is defensible and may be a fit. If you want a BAA, email contact@neugence.ai — demand is how we prioritize the roadmap.

Built for non-PHI clinical research

Six things research teams actually need.

Private infrastructure

Open-source Whisper on our own servers. Audio never forwarded to OpenAI, Google, or any third-party transcription service. No model training on uploads. Delete files anytime.

Citeable timestamps

Per-word and per-segment timing. Cite a timestamp in an analysis or paper and a reviewer can jump back to the exact second of the recording.

Multi-speaker diarization

Interviewer, participant, clinician labels on every turn. Rename once; transcript updates everywhere. Works on focus groups and multi-participant sessions.

100+ languages

Spanish, Mandarin, Arabic, Vietnamese, Portuguese, Tagalog, Russian — 100+ via Whisper. Source-language transcript plus optional English translation.

No hard length cap

2-hour focus groups, 3-hour semi-structured interviews, or multi-session workshops — one upload, one job.

Per-hour pricing

$1 per hour of audio, pay-as-you-go, no seats, no monthly minimums. A grant that includes 40 hours of recorded interviews costs ~$40 to transcribe.

Questions healthcare teams ask first

FAQs for clinical and research workflows.

Is Whipscribe HIPAA-compliant?

No. We are not a HIPAA-covered BA today and do not offer a BAA. Do not upload PHI. If you need a BAA, email contact@neugence.ai so we can register the demand.

Can I use it for de-identified research?

That is the intended fit. Private Whisper, no third-party sharing, no training on your uploads, delete on demand. Always confirm against your specific IRB protocol.

Where does the audio go?

To our own infrastructure. Never to OpenAI, Google, or any third-party transcription service. Never used to train models.

Do you support non-English clinical interviews?

Yes — 100+ languages via Whisper. Source transcript plus optional English translation.

What about SOC 2?

SOC 2 is a roadmap item, not a claim. If compliance is a dealbreaker, pick a vendor that already holds the certification; tell us via contact@neugence.ai so we can prioritize.

Private by default. Honest about the rest.

30 minutes free every day, no account. $1/hour PAYG after that.
