About this service

Summary

Enhance your content with high-quality, accurate transcription services tailored to your needs. Whether it's interviews, podcasts, or meetings, I deliver polished, error-free transcripts with quick turnaround times. Let me help you save time and focus on what matters while ensuring your audio is professionally transcribed and formatted.

Process

1. Client Consultation
Receive Audio File: Client submits audio files via the platform or a designated file-sharing service.
Clarify Requirements: Discuss transcription style (verbatim, clean verbatim, etc.), any specific formatting needs (timestamps, speaker labels), and the deadline.
Confirm Pricing & Timeline: Finalize the project cost and delivery date based on the audio length, quality, and complexity.
2. Initial Audio Review
Audio Quality Assessment: Listen to a brief portion of the file to evaluate audio clarity, speaker accents, and any background noise that might affect transcription.
Adjustments: Inform the client if any adjustments are needed, such as extending the deadline for difficult audio or poor quality.
3. Transcription Process
Begin Transcription: Using a professional transcription tool (e.g., Express Scribe, Otter.ai), transcribe the audio with attention to detail, accurately capturing dialogue and context.
Speaker Differentiation: Identify and label different speakers clearly (if applicable) to ensure readability.
Timestamping (Optional): Insert timestamps at intervals or for specific parts of the audio as requested by the client.
4. Proofreading & Editing
Review for Accuracy: Listen to the audio again while reading the transcript to ensure no details were missed or misinterpreted.
Correct Errors: Fix grammatical mistakes, punctuation issues, and ensure speaker consistency.
Ensure Formatting: Ensure the document meets all client specifications (paragraph breaks, font, etc.).
5. Quality Assurance
Final Audio Check: Perform a final pass with the audio to confirm the transcript matches exactly and there are no unresolved sections.
Review Client Guidelines: Revisit client preferences to make sure the transcript adheres to all instructions regarding format and content.
6. Deliver to Client
Submit Transcript: Send the final, polished document to the client via the agreed-upon platform (e.g., email, file sharing, platform upload).
Request Feedback: Ask the client to review the transcript and provide feedback for potential adjustments.
7. Revisions (If Needed)
Incorporate Client Feedback: Make any revisions requested by the client promptly, ensuring their satisfaction with the final product.
8. Final Approval & Payment
Client Approval: Once the client is fully satisfied with the transcription, mark the project as complete.
Process Payment: Finalize payment through the chosen platform or payment method.

FAQs

  • What types of audio files do you accept?

    I accept most common audio file formats, including MP3, WAV, M4A, and AAC. If your file is in a different format, feel free to ask, and I’ll work to accommodate it.

  • What is the turnaround time for a transcription?

    Turnaround time depends on the length and complexity of the audio. Typically, I can deliver transcripts for short files (under 30 minutes) within 24 hours. For longer files, delivery may range from 48 hours to 5 days. I also offer expedited services if you’re on a tight deadline.

  • Do you offer verbatim transcription?

    Yes, I offer both verbatim and clean verbatim transcription. Verbatim transcription captures every word and sound, including filler words like "um" and "uh," while clean verbatim removes unnecessary fillers for a more polished transcript.

  • Do you transcribe multiple speakers?

    Absolutely! I can differentiate and label multiple speakers in interviews, group discussions, podcasts, or meetings. Just let me know if you’d like specific speaker labels or general designations (e.g., Speaker 1, Speaker 2).

  • What if the audio quality is poor?

    I do my best to work with audio of all qualities. However, if the audio is particularly challenging due to background noise, overlapping speech, or low volume, I may request additional time. I will flag any unclear sections for your review and clarification.

  • Can you add timestamps?

    Yes, I can include timestamps at regular intervals (e.g., every minute) or at specific points when speakers change, as per your request. Let me know your preference when placing your order.

  • Do you offer confidentiality for sensitive content?

    Absolutely. Your audio and the resulting transcript will remain confidential, and I am happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) upon request.
