AudioShake vs clir Hearing

AudioShake separates and processes audio for creators and developers. Studio can split music into vocal and instrument stems or divide finished mixes into dialogue, music and effects. Multi-Speaker separates overlapping voices into labelled tracks, while Speech Recovery denoises and de-reverbs recordings to improve speech intelligibility. The browser-based Lyric Editor transcribes lyrics, aligns words with recordings and supports editing and realignment. Studio accepts WAV, AIFF, FLAC, MP3, AAC, M4A, MP4 and MOV files up to 2 GB. Developers can use REST API processing for batch or streaming workflows, with webhooks; a Local Inference SDK is offered for iOS, macOS, Android, Windows and Linux. Private inference can run in a customer's cloud or fully offline. The free plan starts with 200 credits, MP3 export and files up to 10 minutes. Starter costs $20 a month and Pro costs $40 a month; Enterprise pricing is custom. AudioShake focuses on lyric transcription, not general speech transcription.
