Transcription Rates

We've simplified our transcription rates to make it easier than ever.

We still bill strictly per recorded minute of audio. Determine the number of speakers in your audio file. Identify if you have any other variables that may affect your audio (our Account Executives will help you with this if you’re not sure). Choose how quickly you want your transcript back.
