About Auphonic
Auphonic is a web service that automates audio post-production. Users upload a recording and its algorithms handle noise and reverb reduction, an intelligent leveler that balances volume, filtering and enhancement, loudness normalization to broadcast and platform specifications, and multitrack processing.
Additional features cut filler words, coughs and silence, and provide speech-to-text transcription with automatic show notes, plus video, subtitle, metadata and chapter support. Workflows can be automated through file transfer, automatic publishing, watch folders and an API, and a recent update added an n8n integration.
Auphonic is a hosted commercial service with plans on its pricing page. It suits podcasters, course creators, video producers and audiobook makers who want consistent, publish-ready sound without learning audio engineering.
