Speaker labels intact
Diarization on the Portuguese audio means the English translation preserves who said what.
Free to start
300 minutes monthly on the free plan, no credit card, enough for most calls and interviews.

Brazilian and European Portuguese diverge noticeably: European Portuguese reduces unstressed vowels heavily so words sound clipped, while Brazilian Portuguese is more open and vowel-rich. Nasal vowels (the ao ending, the til over a and o) and the cedilla (the c with a cedilla) are meaning-bearing and must be preserved for the transcript to be correct in either variant.

- United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, India, and much of the world as a lingua franca
English transcription has to handle a wide spread of accents (American, British, Irish, Indian, Australian) and heavy use of contractions, filler words, and code-switching. Homophones such as "their", "there", and "they're" are resolved from context, and proper nouns and acronyms are a common source of errors that a quick edit pass fixes.
A worked example
Portuguese (source)
Obrigado por participar; vamos rever os numeros do trimestre antes de abrir para perguntas.
English (translation)
Thank you for taking part; we are going to review the quarterly numbers before opening for questions.
The Portuguese "vamos rever" maps to "we are going to review", and the friendly opening "Obrigado por participar" becomes "Thank you for taking part".
