We knew that we were capable of checking all the boxes of our customers.
Remove the pain of transcribing your audio or video files. Reduce overhead costs of customer transcriptions. Offer a high-quality transcription service All staff UK-based 100% on-time guarantee

What Our Customers Are Saying
Transcription Services FAQ
Our services start at £1.00 per minute (ex VAT).
With our quick, secure and simple online checkout you can send your files across to us for transcription and make payment via several different payment methods.
We have a detailed blog post covering this topic in more detail, however a very simple explanation of this would be:
Copy Typing: Typing up documents that are hand written into a Word document, or replicating documents no longer available in an editable format.
Transcription: A typist types up a document based on audio or video files containing speech.
A verbatim transcription is a word-for-word copy of the speech, written as spoken and includes almost everything said in the audio, removing only ‘filler words’ such as um’s and ah’s, as well as false starts or repetitions.
Verbatim transcripts are ideal for record keeping or research purposes, for example in qualitative research or record keeping for HR departments.
Intelligent verbatim transcriptions essentially offer a ‘cleaned up’ version of what has been said in the audio, giving the reader the key points in a more digestible format. Speech may be paraphrased to remove unnecessary dialogue, making the meaning more succinct.
Our article on Verbatim Vs. Intelligent Verbatim Transcription can give you more detailed information on the differences.
We accept most digital audio formats, such as:
AAC, ACT, AIFC (Compressed AIFF), AIFF, AMR, APE, AU, CAF (Apple Core Audio Format), DCT (Express Dictate, MSRS, etc.), DSP TrueSpeech, DSS , DVF (Sony recorder), DVS (Royal recorder), FLAC, OGG, M4A, MP2, MP3, MPC, MSV (Sony recorder), QCP, RA / RM (RealAudio), SHN, SPX, VOC, VOX, WAV (Including ADPCM, aLaw, GSM 6.10, PCM, and uLaw codecs) and WMA.

The best way to receive accurate transcription of audio is to have high quality audio available. Where this isn’t possible, the quality of the completed transcript will be lower.
Unfortunately audio cannot be suitably enhanced where recording quality is low, as the data (the sounds) have not been captured initially, and therefore we cannot improve on the audio quality that you provide to us.
