Dictation
You speak, Punchbox writes — clean, punctuated text, ready to correct.
Product · Live
Punchbox — your voice, turned into usable text.
Dictation, transcription, translation, assisted video editing.
Punchbox exists, it is live and it works. It has its own site, punchbox.fr, where you can try it and use it today.
From voice to deliverable, without friction.
Taking notes, transcribing an interview, subtitling a video, translating a passage: slow work done by hand.
Punchbox chains these steps: you speak or upload a file, it returns clean text, translated if needed, ready to reuse — all the way to assisted video editing. The tool does the repetitive work; you keep the decision.
Four functions, one tool.
The functions available today on punchbox.fr.
Transcription
A recording or a video becomes faithful text, timestamped if needed.
Translation
The resulting text is translated into the language you want, without leaving the tool.
Assisted video editing
Cut, subtitle and assemble a video from its transcription.
Sound branding
A structure’s sound identity, delivered in every language Punchbox speaks.
The jingle that opens a video, the sting between two sequences, the phone hold loop, the podcast theme. Most small structures have none, because a full sound identity made in a studio is beyond their budget.
A studio delivers in French. You then pay a voice actor per language, then an editor, then start over every time the text changes. Here, the same sound branding is delivered in the 20 languages of the interface, voice and subtitles included, Arabic written right to left. A text update reaches every version within the day.
Composition is assisted by generative artificial intelligence, on a professional account whose commercial usage rights are established. That is precisely what makes the price possible. What stays human: choosing the motif, art direction, timing against the edit, consistency between the pieces of a pack, and refusing to deliver anything that sounds like something else. Every piece is checked before handover; a piece too close to an existing work is redone, not delivered.

Each assignment comes with a tailored quote.
- Sound sting 3 to 8 s, 3 variants

Delivery in the 20 languages: on quote for the whole set, delivered 24 h later whatever the number of languages.

Through the studio’s contact form.
The limits, in plain words.
An honest tool says where it stops.
- It does not replace human proofreading: an automatic transcription needs correcting, especially proper nouns and technical vocabulary.
- It is not a sworn translator: for an official document, the translation must be done or validated by a qualified professional.
- Quality depends on the audio: a noisy recording gives less faithful text.
