Supernormal doubled free-to-paid conversion rate with AssemblyAI transcription

The problem

Virtual meeting attendees who miss meetings lose nuance and depth of discussion, and even those present find it difficult to take meaningful notes while actively participating in conversation.

First attempt

Supernormal's legacy speech-to-text provider could not transcribe meetings accurately enough to produce usable meeting notes or support downstream workflows such as action items and summaries.
