Making professional AI-powered transcription accessible to everyone, everywhere.
Tells me More was born from a simple frustration: transcription services were either too expensive, required cloud uploads (compromising privacy), or delivered poor quality results. As a developer and student, I spent countless hours manually transcribing lectures and interviews, wishing there was a better way.
When OpenAI released Whisper in late 2022, I saw the opportunity to build something different. A transcription tool that would be:
After months of development and optimization, Tells me More launched in 2024. What started as a personal project has grown into a tool used by students, podcasters, journalists, researchers, and businesses worldwide.
To democratize access to professional-grade transcription technology. We believe that powerful AI tools shouldn't require expensive subscriptions, cloud dependencies, or privacy compromises. Everyone should have access to tools that help them work smarter and faster.
We're not just another transcription service. Here's what sets Tells me More apart:
Your data is your data. We design products that respect your privacy by default, not as an afterthought.
We won't ship features until they meet our quality standards. Fast iteration matters, but user trust matters more.
Advanced technology should be accessible to everyone, regardless of budget or technical expertise.
We're honest about what our software does, how it works, and what its limitations are.
Every feature decision starts with asking: "Does this actually help our users get their work done?"
We're always learning, always optimizing, always looking for ways to make the experience better.
We stand on the shoulders of giants. Tells me More is built using cutting-edge open-source technologies:
But technology alone isn't enough. We've invested heavily in optimization, testing, and user experience design to make these powerful tools actually useful in real-world workflows.
Note from the developer: Hi, I'm Alessandro Saladino, the creator of Tells me More. I built this tool because I needed it myself - as a student, researcher, and developer, accurate transcription became essential to my workflow. If you have questions, feedback, or just want to chat about AI and transcription technology, feel free to reach out. I read every email.
When you use Tells me More, here's what you can expect from us:
We're just getting started. Our roadmap includes Windows and Intel Mac support, real-time transcription, speaker diarization, enhanced export formats, and much more. But we won't lose sight of what matters: building tools that respect your privacy, deliver exceptional quality, and help you get your work done.
