Transcribing your own audio and video content can be time-consuming and costly. Effective transcription often requires more than just ‘writing down what is said’. Professionally produced transcripts help you reach a wider audience. They save you time and money.
Why you need transcription services
Transcription involves translating audio and video content into text. Elements other than speech, like laughter, reactions and timing, can also be described in transcripts. Transcribing your own audio and video content can be time-consuming.
If you need transcription services, we can help you find a solution that ensures your material is enjoyed by audiences around the world.
What are transcriptions used for?
Online video has become the most popular media content in recent years. In fact, it’s estimated that the average person will spend 100 minutes each day watching online videos in 2021. That’s why quality, accurate transcription is more important than ever before.
Transcribing audio to text
Your source content can be translated and transcribed into over 200 languages. We are able to transcribe from the vast majority of audio and video formats, and deliver the transcription with the simplest possible formatting in one of the standard word processing formats.
Interviews
Translated interview transcriptions create a permanent, understandable record and can be distributed to people who speak another language. They’re also a great tool for analysing what was said during an interview.
Software and enterprise transcriptions
Transcription of large amounts of audio or video content provides a tool to improve the accuracy of virtual assistants using voice recognition.
Legal transcripts
Transcriptions of legal matters can be used as evidence or as part of court proceedings. They are often useful in family law cases to record comments by each party.
Corporate events, seminars and lectures
Multilingual transcriptions of hosted events are useful when an interpreter isn’t available. A transcription in the required language may be simpler to distribute than a subtitled video. Your content goes global while you don’t have to.
We are ISO 27001 certified
There’s no need to worry about the security of your audio and video content. We are ISO 27001 certified and our transcription work is carried out by accredited language professionals using industry-standard tools.
