What they are

Happy Scribe

Happy Scribe converts audio and video files into accurate transcripts and subtitles using automated speech recognition or human transcriptionists. Journalists, podcasters, researchers, and video creators use it to save editing time and make content accessible. The automated tier is affordable and quick, though accuracy drops noticeably with heavy accents or low-quality recordings, making human transcription the safer choice for high-stakes work.

Teachable

Teachable is a hosted course platform where creators build, publish, and sell online courses, coaching packages, and digital downloads. It handles payments, student enrollment, and content delivery in one place, making it popular with independent educators and subject-matter experts. The trade-off is that transaction fees apply on lower-tier plans, and the course editor feels dated compared to newer competitors.
