All timestamps begin at [00:00], we cannot accommodate embedded video timecodes.

We have transcriptionists from a variety of backgrounds. You can specify the topic when you place your order so agents with experience in that field can work on your files. We are not HIPAA compliant or court-certified.

We can transcribe multi-speaker files and we charge the same price: $1 per minute. We indicate "speaker 1", "speaker 2", etc. where possible, or "male" and "female".

• The majority of our transcriptionists are based in the United States and are native English speakers.
• For better turnaround times, we do have transcriptionists outside of the United States to work during non-traditional business hours.

All transcripts are delivered as Microsoft Word documents.

We edit filler words such as "uhh" and "umm" to best represent the integrity of the recording. However, we do not edit grammatical errors as we only transcribe the audio as is. You may request verbatim transcription as an optional add-on to your order if you prefer to have all filler words included, for an additional fee of $0.25 per minute.

Yes – we make reference to each individual speaker and keep the reference consistent throughout the transcript. If the recording has more than four speakers, speakers may be referenced as Male or Female rather than individually numbered.

The default transcript edits out filler words such as "uhh" and "umm" as this is the most popular and easiest to read format for our clients. You may select the verbatim option during checkout if you prefer to have all filler words included, for an additional fee of $0.25 per minute.

Some orders can take longer than 24 hours to complete. Some causes of slower delivery include:

• Audio has heavy accents or low quality and is difficult for our team to hear.
• If you upload large files (e.g., uncompressed audio or video), we have to shrink the files (you can convert to MP3 or M4A yourself using free software from the web).
• Audio has multiple speakers, which takes longer to process

We send you transcripts in Microsoft Word format so that you can make quick edits yourself. If you need extensive changes, please Contact Us.
