  • Transcription of French recording was…
    Transcription of French recording was fast (earlier than expected) and perfectly accurate. Very satisfied.

  • Works great!
    The service itself is excellent. I only had to make a few changes when the speaker in my audio mumbled. I do wish there was a day pass option for those of us who only need the full service a few times a year.

  • Nice to for PhD students
    It was a very useful tool to transcribe my interviews. It guarantees anonymity and is secure. I truly recommend it. Well I won't lie to you, you will have to listen it and correct, but it will help a lot.

  • Saved my stress level!
    I used the free (approcimate) transcription and it was nearly perfect. The obvious mis-interpretaions were easily fixed by editing the .srt file. Great product.
