Castingwords, worked by an AI employee

Not another app for your team to learn, and not a set of rules for you to build. You hire an AI employee, you give it access to your Castingwords account, and you ask it for things in Slack or Teams the way you would ask anyone else on the team. There is nothing to map and nothing to maintain.

  • Transcription
  • Connects with a key
  • 8 ready-made tools
  • Asked in Slack or Teams
At work

What Castingwords is

CastingWords offers high-quality, human-powered transcription services with a RESTful API for seamless integration into various workflows.

You paste in a key from your own Castingwords account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside Castingwords whenever you like.

How a run works

One message in, the work done in Castingwords.

  1. 01

    You ask

    You message your AI employee in the chat your team already has open, in one sentence, in your own words.

  2. 02

    It works out the step

    It decides what the job needs in Castingwords. You do not pick anything from a menu or wire anything together.

  3. 03

    It does the work

    Signed in to your own Castingwords account, inside the access you granted it, doing the thing you asked for.

  4. 04

    It reports back

    It tells you what it did, in the same thread. If it could not do something, it says so rather than guessing.

Access, and who is in charge of it

You stay the boss of your Castingwords account.

It works in Castingwords and the rest of your software in the same job

A real job rarely stays in one place. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in another and writing the result in a third is one request to your AI employee, not three.
