    Doesn't work

    Date: Mar 16 2025
    Summary

    I reached out to customer service and was told they are working on it. When nothing happened I reached out again and was ghosted. I never got a refund and wasted $100 on a useless app with poor customer service.

    Positive

    It seemed to work fine with continuous text. But it then does not work when you have videos where the spoken part is not continuous.

    Negative

    The app does not work properly (if you have a video with continuous spoken text it will work, but in vlogs where spoken parts are followed by parts with instrumental music the time stamps are completely off).

    Dodgy billing practices

    Date: Jul 29 2024
    Summary

    When I realised it, I googled, saw all the negative reviews and sent a quite heated email to customer support effectively threatening to make that as much public as possible. I received an email from the founder himself that they will not be threatened. Quite interesting and theatrical since other users report same issues.

    Positive

    N/A.

    Negative

    Cockatoo has some "unusual" billing practices. Lots of users, including me, complain that their cards have either been charged somehow due to a manual upgrade or were not receiving the standard renewal email communication resulting in paying for the software for months without realising (my case).

    Rip off company who do not process cancellation, no chat, no contact. Charged me multiple times when I have already cancelled 3 times. No service. Total con scam

    Date: Nov 13 2023
    Summary

    Untrustworthy marketing scam business. Zero integrity and designed to trap you and then to extract money - even after you cancel.

    Positive

    None. It's average as a capability and a rip off organisation. None. It's average as a capability and a rip off organisation.

    Negative

    Scam approach. Looks free too trial but shifts so have to upgrade when use. No chat. No support. Classic bullshit fake q & as which are largely useless and all designed to have zero cost or service in business. Cancel and it still charges. No email confirmation that cancel. I've now screengrabbed. If says password doesn't work it fails to email; to change. Now stolen 4 months of payment after I cancelled. I've had to dispute via credit card as get no answer.
