Transcription Services - Turnaround & Rates

Reduce your transcription costs!

Digital transcripts charge by the audio minute, which means you know the cost of your transcription before you commence your project, thus large government or academic research transcription projects can be easily budgeted for up front to enable grant applications to run to budget.

Rates for our transcription services are based on turnaround time (TAT) and the number voices to be transcribed. For our same day typing service, dictation/audio recordings need to be uploaded by 11am, up to 60 mins per client.  For a larger volume of transcription to be delivered within 12 hours, please schedule with us first giving 24 hours notice, otherwise use longer turnaround rates.

Audio considerations

A surcharge of $0.20 per minute is added to the quoted rates should the audio include:

• speakers with heavy accents
• foreground or background noise and/or muffled voices
• the addition of timestamps at regular intervals
• focus groups, meetings or conference calls of more than 8 participants

Your prior approval will be requested of the amended rate before any work commences should these conditions apply to your transcription request after audio analysis.

For verbatim interviews, just add $0.20 to each base price for the turnaround applicable.

All legal, financial, medical and basic scientific terminology and any Google research is covered in the basic rates quoted - there is no extra charge for difficult terminology, our typists are proficient transcriptionists with many years experience.
