A guest is an additional user (a teammate, collaborator, or client) that you can invite to your Scriptoman workspace to work together on transcripts.
- Collaboration: Guests can listen to, edit, highlight, or export transcripts you share with them without sending large files back and forth.
- Access Control: You stay the owner of the workspace. You invite only the people you choose, by email, and you can see exactly how much of your balance each guest has used.
- Shared Credits: Guests can use the transcription hours from your balance to process new files seamlessly.
Standard pay-as-you-go accounts include a set limit of guest invitations. If you manage a large enterprise team, a marketing agency, or a media room, please contact us for a custom Business plan tailored to your needs.
Yes — that's how collaboration works: guests you invite share your transcription balance. You invite only the people you trust, and you can track how much balance each guest has used at any time.
