This is very impressive.

I'm the owner of Broadcastify.com, where presumably these streams are being transcribed from. We've dabbled in this space and looked at real-world approaches to taking something like this to market, but transcribing 7000+ streams to text seems like an expensive (computational) and ($$) effort that needs a lot of investigation.

Note to mention that the individual lexicons between streams are drastically different.

I wonder how the developer has done the integration to our streams... because I never heard from them :)

Not sure how easy/difficult this would be from am implementation perspective, but perhaps transcription could be provided as a pay-as-you-go service. Ie, users could pay into a pool for live transcription of a stream for a certain period of time or to retroactively transcribe specific streams.

I'd have to imagine that stream listening follows some sort of power (or otherwise 80/20) law, so hopefully that would help with the expense?
