Good Tape is an AI transcription tool that turns audio and video into accurate, searchable text across 100+ languages with automatic language detection. It adds speaker identification, AI summaries, and smart search, and is built around a privacy-first posture: GDPR compliance, ISO 27001 certification, EU-based servers, AES-256 encryption, and a commitment not to use uploads to train AI. It runs on the web plus iOS and Android apps.
