Captions that read well
Each caption is timed to the audio and split into lines short enough to read before it disappears. Speaker changes and important sounds are marked so viewers who can't hear the audio still follow what happens.

How your price is set
You pay for the work your recording actually needs, and you see why before you pay.
Measured
Each recording is measured to the second. You pay per audio minute, rounded up once per order, never per file.
Graded A to D
Every recording is graded on how hard it is to transcribe: how clearly the words come through, background noise, recording level, distortion and overlapping speakers.
Shown before you pay
Your quote lists each recording's grade and the reason. Think a grade is wrong? Email us before paying and a person checks it.
Accurate to the audio
What's written is what was said. If a transcript falls short, we re-edit it free, and every grade gets free corrections for 14 days. How the guarantee works

- Grade B · FairSome noise or distance, still easy to follow.Standard rate
- Grade C · DifficultNoisy room, distant speakers or frequent crosstalk.+30%
- Grade D · Very difficultHeavy noise, distortion or long unclear stretches.+70%
Captions transcription — questions
Do you burn captions into the video?
No. We deliver caption files you upload alongside your video, which keeps them searchable and lets viewers switch them off.
Can you caption from a YouTube link?
Yes. Paste the link in the upload form and we import the video for you.
Do you translate captions?
Not as a standard service. Contact us if you need captions in another language and we'll tell you what we can do.
