What it is / who it's for

This page covers four distinct products, priced separately because they're genuinely different jobs: a plain transcript, a transcript of multiple speakers, a subtitle file you sync yourself, or subtitles burned directly into the video. Pick the one that matches what you're actually going to publish.

Who for

  • · Content creators and social video teams
  • · Corporate comms and L&D teams with training or webinar recordings
  • · Media producers needing accessible or searchable spoken content

Document types

  • · Interviews and podcasts
  • · Training and onboarding videos
  • · Webinar recordings
  • · Social video content
  • · Conference and panel recordings

Priced per minute of media, not per word — the price is set the moment you tell us the run time.

Why this needs a specialist

  • Multiple speakers, accents and overlapping dialogue are where automated tools fall down and where a plain-transcription price would be dishonest — that's why multi-speaker is priced and handled as its own product, not a footnote on single-speaker.
  • Sync matters as much as wording for subtitles: a technically accurate line that appears half a second late reads as wrong. Every file is checked against the audio, not just spell-checked.
  • Choosing between a subtitle file and burned-in subtitles is a publishing decision, not a quality one — pick burned-in only if you need the subtitles inseparable from the video.

Turnaround & pricing detail

Standard Express
≤10 minutes 2 working days 1 working day (+50%)
≤30 minutes 3 working days 2 working days (+50%)
≤60 minutes 5 working days 3 working days (+50%)

Turnaround is set by speaker count and audio quality as much as by length — multi-speaker or noisy audio takes longer to check accurately than a clean single-speaker recording of the same length.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate will this be with multiple speakers or accents?

That's exactly why multi-speaker transcription is its own priced product rather than folded into the single-speaker rate — it's handled with more time and a dedicated accuracy check against the audio.

Do I need a transcript, a subtitle file, or burned-in subtitles?

A transcript is text only, for reading or editing. A subtitle file (SRT/VTT) is synced but separate from the video, for platforms that support uploading captions. Burned-in subtitles are permanently part of the video file — choose that only if you need them inseparable from the footage.

Can you translate the subtitles into another language too?

Yes — order the transcription or subtitle file here, then the relevant translation service, or ask us to bundle both via the quote form.

What if my audio quality is poor?

Send us the file and, if the audio is genuinely difficult (heavy background noise, significant overlap), use the quote route so we can confirm feasibility and timing before you order.
