Beey
AI powered platform centered around rich-text editor with subtitle mode and numerous associated plugins and apps.
Visit live siteBeey is an AI powered online transcription platform that allows its users transcribe recordings, generate automatic or professional subtitles, create summaries, translate content, and more. I watched the project grow from a small tool centered around a rich-text editor with a media player into a robust platform used by thousands. Over time, it evolved to include numerous plugins and associated app like allowing voice recording, live stream transcription, or a powerful subtitle editor.
I had the unique opportunity to grow alongside this project. Starting as the company's first full-time tester, I was free to establish testing processes and gradually automate some workflows using Cypress. My interest in user experience led me to take on a UI/UX design role before transitioning to frontend development, where I have remained since. For several months, I also served as the development team lead, working closely with senior tech leads and the product team, but ultimately returned to hands-on development, where I thrive the most.
