In short
Czech is not a language of our engine: Transcribsi transcribes 99+ languages only. In the market, Czech is a good band language, 10–25 % word error rate, on the 99+ language model of AssemblyAI at $0.15 an hour, and one of the 23 site languages of Transkriptor.
The case
Diacritics, and the accent that is not Slovak
Czech is written with diacritics that carry meaning: the háček on s and c, the ring on u, the long vowels that change a word. A model that drops those marks leaves text that reads wrong even when every word is right. Czech sits in the good band of the widest model we measured, and that is where proofreading turns cheap.

The missing diacritics show up in the first lines: háček, ring, the long vowels. Fix them there and the rest of the file follows the same pattern.

Ask for the shape of the result
Subtitles for a video, a quote sheet for the report, a readable copy for the archive: SRT, CSV and DOCX are the three formats worth naming.

Read the first page for missing diacritics, not for meaning.
The good band still means editing; budget for it.

Questions about Czech transcription
Which services transcribe Czech?
AssemblyAI's Universal-2 covers 99+ languages and puts Czech in the good band. TurboScribe and Transkriptor run Czech interfaces, and tl;dv transcribes in 30+ languages with its free plan at 0 EUR.
How accurate is Czech transcription?
10–25 % word error rate on the widest model we measured. The bottom of that range is a meeting with a decent microphone; the top of it is a lecture hall, and both need a reading pass.
Why do Czech diacritics matter?
Because a dropped háček or a missing ring changes the word and often the meaning, and a reader blames the transcript instead of the model. Check the first page for missing marks.
