Transcription

What is transcription?

Transcription is when verbal speech from an audio or video file is copied into text, which is generally but not limited to a digital text format. It can also mean rewriting an old document into an editable format. Our transcription service will prevent you from having to spend a long time transcribing a file yourself.

Who might benefit from a transcription?

Did your grandmother leave you a book of recipes in the Rusyn dialect and now you want to convert it into digital format so you can preserve it for your kids but you no longer understand a lot of the words? Do you want to use findings from interviews with an African tribe for your research but can’t seem to understand the recording very well? Perhaps you find some of these uncommon scenarios a bit funny. But believe it or not, these are real cases that we helped our clients with – as they used our transcription services.
