| The verdict | A spoken-word editor that levels for you and keeps the story tools close. |
| Free tier | No free tier listed. A trial may be available. |
| Best for | Interview and narrative producers, journalists, and weekly hosts who want a desktop editor built for speech, not music. |
| Not the best fit | Video-first shows, plugin collectors, or anyone who only needs a free casual cut. Music mixers already stay in a music editor. |
| The gotcha | Transcript hours sit on Plus and Premium. Standard has the editor only. |
| Public plans | Read public plan notes

| Pricing notes | We could not read plain-text dollar amounts from the public HTML. Confirm on the purchase buttons. 30-day trial is widely offered. |
