Protecting sensitive data matters whether you’re transcribing patient interviews, captioning training videos for a global team, or reviewing hours of call center recordings. Recently updated to help safeguard private information, surface key takeaways faster, and reduce errors with automatic language detection, GlobalLink Scribe supports safer, more efficient transcript workflows.
Read on to see what’s new.
What Is GlobalLink Scribe?
GlobalLink Scribe is an AI-powered speech-to-text tool that turns audio and video content into accurate, multilingual transcripts and captions. Supporting 170+ languages, the tool offers both fully automated and human-in-the-loop workflows, so you can choose the right balance of speed and oversight for each project.
What’s New in GlobalLink Scribe
Protect sensitive data automatically with the new GL Redact engine
The personally identifiable information (PII) redaction capability in GlobalLink Scribe has been upgraded with the new GlobalLink Redact engine. If your organization handles call center recordings, healthcare documentation, or internal audits, this update is for you. It’s smarter at spotting and redacting sensitive information across your transcripts, including patient names, medical record numbers, financial data, demographic details, and ID or credit card numbers.
Key details:
- Intelligent data masking: Automatically detects and redacts sensitive information types in your transcript scripts.[HB1]
- Flexible control: Choose which words or data types to unmask, so you keep relevant context accessible while private details stay hidden.
- Multilingual PII support: PII redaction works across English, Spanish, Italian, French, and German.
- Script-only masking: Redactions are applied to text output only. Your original audio and video files are never altered.
Get answers from your transcripts with AI Insights
Long transcripts are useful, but reading through them to find the information you need isn’t always practical. AI Insights is a chatbot built directly into your transcription view. Open it, type a question, and get a clear answer drawn from the content of your transcript.
You can ask for a short summary, a detailed summary with timestamps, or a list of keywords. This is especially valuable for teams reviewing meeting recordings or analyzing call center interactions where you need the key points fast. Answers can be downloaded as .doc files, so you can save and share what you find.
Skip the language dropdown with automatic speech recognition
Starting a new transcription order just got simpler. When you upload an audio or video file, GlobalLink Scribe now analyzes the content and identifies the spoken language with smarter automatic speech recognition (ASR). You no longer need to select the language manually, which removes a common source of errors and speeds up multilingual workflows.
Next Steps
If you’re an existing GlobalLink Scribe user:
- Try the upgraded PII redaction on your next transcription project and experiment with unmasking specific data types.
- Open AI Insights in your transcription view and ask for a summary of a recent transcript to see how much review time you can save.
- Upload a new audio file and let the automatic language detection identify the spoken language for you.
