Summary

Bluedot is an AI-powered productivity app for asynchronous work that aims to automate documentation and reduce the number of meetings using AI. The company partnered with AssemblyAI to improve transcription accuracy, specifically in transcribing different accents and speaker recognition. After integrating Speech-to-Text and Audio Intelligence models from AssemblyAI, Bluedot achieved a significant increase in conversion rate from free to paid users, going from 2% to 3%. This was mainly due to the precise transcription provided by AssemblyAI, which helped detect technical terms, acronyms, and industry-specific language. The Custom Vocabulary feature of AssemblyAI enabled Bluedot to train its model based on customer-acquired acronyms, further enhancing accuracy. By leveraging AssemblyAI's solutions, Bluedot was able to reduce the workload of its engineers and achieve more with fewer resources.
