Your Transcription Services Specialist

For our audio transcription services, we only work with the best linguists who have a minimum of 4 years transcription experience. This is because the importance of accuracy and attention to detail is crucial. Our clients can choose between 3 special formats for their written transcripts:

Strict Verbatim: The written target file is presented exactly as the oral source file with speech errors and repetitions still included. Clean Verbatim: All fillers are removed to maintain the flow of the sentences. For example, “I am, hmm, not sure, hmm, if I, ehm, get the train tonight.” Is edited to: “I am not sure if I get the train tonight.”

Edited Verbatim: Minor edits to grammar and tenses are put in place and most stutters and false starts are removed.

We cater regularly for special requirements, such as heavy accents and noisy or corrupted audio files. Our in-house studio engineers help to enhance the quality of the tape to make the source file more understandable.

Video Or Multimedia Projects

If you have a video or media-based project, speak to our customer service team about a quote for a time coded transcription. This is essential when you are going to need a foreign language voice over recorded for a video, as a Russian or Arabic voice over will be 30% longer in duration than an English version and the transcription will need to be adjusted during translation to ensure timings are correct.

The sales team can also recommend our translation, transcreation, and reviewing services. This is especially convenient if your finished document or project is targeted at a foreign audience. Our full-service approach has prove that it can help to reduce turnaround times by up to 30%.
