Video Transcription
Video is important. But it requires a lot of effort and time to produce. Don't let that effort go to waste. Transcription, captioning or subtitling helps your video get discovered and appreciated!
Do you need quick and secure online video transcription services?
Video may have killed the radio star back in the '80s. But it's killing it in the digital age. Video is the preferred way for creators and brands to communicate with audiences and is growing significantly as a research method.
But without transcriptions, closed captions or subtitles, video producers face significant accessibility issues and challenges when working efficiently with video content. Transcribing video content helps to improve accessibility, increase reach through search engine optimization (SEO) and allows content to be more easily repurposed.

Video Transcription
Audio & Video
Video is awesome for many reasons. But it's tricky to mine video content for a key quote, a fact or statistic or a compelling soundbite.
Video transcripts, on the other hand, are easy to access, search and parse.
Captions & Subtitles
Audio & Video
Captions & Subtitles will make your content more accessible and boost SEO. Delivered in SRT, they will be readily available for post-production editing of your existing video content.
Key features of Video Transcription
Our video transcripts turn the audio content of your video into a text format with at least 99% accuracy, even for complex scripts.
Choose from a number of optional customization extras, such as timestamps and speaker identification, to make it even easier to mine your transcript for the information you need.

Automated options that rely on AI you may have heard of include Google's speech-to-text software, Azure's cloud computing service, IBM's speech-to-text app and the Transcribe app and online editor. However, most automated solutions struggle to top 85% accuracy. And that's assuming perfect audio conditions and no language that will cause the software problems.
