AI Prefect
For teachers. Illustration, not a measured result. Not part of the rating. Whisper AI Transcribe can turn a recorded lecture, interview or staff meeting into searchable text with speaker turns and a short summary, so you start from a draft transcript rather than a blank page. Ask everyone on the recording for consent first and leave pupil names and sensitive detail out, because no company is named behind the site and audio is sent to OpenAI in the US.
