Documents and situations we support

Transcription turns recorded speech into a usable written record. Typical recordings and output choices include:

  • Interviews and market-research sessions
  • Business meetings and training recordings
  • Podcasts and legal or evidential audio
  • Clean-read or strict verbatim transcripts with speaker labels

Tell us the recording duration, number of speakers, languages, sound quality and whether the file contains confidential information. Agree upfront if timestamps, overlapping speech markers or a bilingual transcript are needed.

What matters for an accurate translation

Names, dates, numbers and uncommon terminology can be hard to hear, especially in recordings with background noise or remote-call compression. We distinguish intelligible wording from unclear passages instead of filling gaps with assumptions.

Speaker identification is limited by the recording and any known attendee list. Transcription records speech; it does not verify the truth of a statement, authenticate the recording or replace a sworn witness account.

A practical project example

A research team needs a transcript from a 75-minute interview with two moderators. The project brief specifies clean verbatim wording, labels for each person and timestamps at topic changes. This supports analysis without altering substantive answers.

By contrast, a court-related audio file may require strict verbatim conventions and an agreed accuracy declaration. The receiving lawyer or court sets any evidential requirements.

How we manage your project

  1. 01Assess the audio and specification

    Share the recording length, language, sound quality, number of speakers and whether timestamps or verbatim conventions are required.

  2. 02Transcribe with uncertainty markers

    We record intelligible speech and flag unclear passages, disputed words or overlapping voices instead of making unsupported assumptions.

  3. 03Review and deliver the transcript

    We check speaker labels, key figures and the agreed formatting, then deliver the requested file. Transcription itself does not authenticate a recording or statement.

Frequently asked questions

Can you transcribe recordings with several speakers?

Yes, subject to sound quality and how reliably voices can be distinguished.

Can you include timestamps?

Yes. State the timestamp frequency and format when ordering.

Do you provide translated transcripts?

Translation can be combined with transcription when the language pair and scope are agreed.

What happens when the audio is unclear?

Uncertain passages should be flagged for review rather than guessed.
