Building with Good Tape API
From newsrooms to media platforms. Our API isn’t just a technical add-on, it’s a way to bring transcription into the tools you already rely on.
If you need transcription as part of a bigger workflow, our API gives you the flexibility to make it happen.
Security and compliance
The Good Tape API follows the same security standards as our web tool. Files are protected with AES 256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit, processed on GDPR compliant servers in the EU.
