About the product

What does ForgeScribe do?

I am Brutal, the developer at Brutal Foundry LLC. ForgeScribe is a Windows desktop app that turns audio/video recordings into editable text using local speech models. Import a recording or record microphone/system audio, transcribe locally, review and edit timed text, and export one of nine formats including SRT and VTT. It includes recovery checkpoints, optional speaker labels, compatible custom-model import and 12 menu languages.

Seven-day Microsoft Store trial, then US$14.99 once; regional prices vary. No subscription or separate ForgeScribe account. Media and transcripts stay local; initial model downloads and Store licensing may require internet. Accuracy and speed depend on audio, model and hardware. Generated text and speaker labels need human review. Live captions are provisional and may lag or change. Accessibility suitability has not been independently validated.

The public product page includes a walkthrough and a real short-sample result, not an independent accuracy benchmark. Requesting free standard editorial review only.
