Transcription is also useful for podcasts, phone calls, dictation, etc... This is where transcription services can help.

  • How long does it take to convert voice to text?

    The amount of time it will take to voice to text depends on the length of your audio file, the quality of the audio, and whether or not you transcribe the audio yourself or use voice to text software. If your audio quality is good and you are experienced at transcribing voice to text you can expect to take 4 hours to convert 1 hour of audio.

  • How can I improve the accuracy of my voice to text transcription?
