2. How does it work?
You can securely upload the audio recordings to our site by creating a free upload account. You will get confirmation emails with account access. You can log in and upload the files.
If you have the audio recordings online, you can email us the links to download the files. You can also upload the files to our server using FTP.
Usually transcripts are provided in MS Word format. However, we can provide them in Text format or PDF format if required. By default, we annotate the transcript where there are inaudible words or if the speech is not comprehensible due to audio disturbance, lack of clarity in speech, use of technical terms that are not easily recognized or similar sounding words that the transcriber is unable to make out. These sections are marked with a time stamp - the minute and second in the recording at which the relevant text occurs.
If you require timestamps at regular intervals we can do that for a marginal extra fee.
3. Experience & Quality
We transcribe audio & video recordings for clients in North America, UK and Australia on an ongoing basis. Our team of transcribers has experience in handling a wide range of accents and topics. If the quality of the audio recording is good and if the speech clarity is high, we deliver 99%+ accuracy. We have developed an annotation methodology by which we help you quickly review the portions of the transcript that we are not 100% sure of. This way you can easily get the text to 100% accuracy.
4. Turn-around Time
The turn-around time depends on the nature of engagement that we have with our clients. If you have regular work, we can discuss and agree on a TAT that meets your requirement. We will quote the delivery time for one-off projects based on the existing commitments. Normally, turnaround can range from 2 to 3 days for the first hour of audio. Typically, for one time projects we offer 2-3 day turnaround for the first 2-3 hours of recordings and subsequently 2-3 hours of recordings transcribed every day. However, the exact commitment will depend on the pre-existing commitments at that point of time.
We have one standard rate for normal as well as rush transcription. If you require the transcriptions fast (rush transcription), we will try to expedite them if we can. However, we do not take up rush transcriptions with delivery in less than 24 hours.
5. Pricing
Our rates are among the lowest anywhere in the world for the quality of transcripts that we deliver. We offer a simple fee structure: flat rate per minute of audio. Just multiply the duration of the audio in minutes by our rate to get your total cost. The rate is lowest for single speaker or audios of high quality; higher rates apply for multi-speaker audios and low quality recordings.
6. Payment
For small jobs, we are happy to get paid after the job is completed. You can pay with your credit card or PayPal. You can also send payments to our bank account in the USA or India directly.
