Media Transcription Services

If only it were as simple to search audio and video as a text document? Whether you need to edit images, create articles, or analyze interviews -- reliable, low-cost transcription are an essential first step.

Focus Group videos, market research, lectures, interviews, meetings, conferences, voice messages and other kinds of media become much more useful when they are transcribed and timestamped. But how can you get the accuracy you need, at the right cost, and in time to meet your deadlines?

Human-powered transcription remains the only way to get highly accurate transcriptions that can be distributed to clients and team members. Despite technical advances, the best automated transcription software is still only 60% to 70% accurate. And for conversational dialogue containing slang and non-standard pronunciation, accuracy rates can be even lower.

Spoolsource delivers better value and turnaround times using real skilled humans. Because the work is crowdsourced, small pieces are spread across numerous skilled transcriptionists and then quickly aggregated into a final transcript in any format you require.

And Spoolsource can include techniques to make your media more easily searched, edited and used in multiple contexts. Spoolsource can even post transcript files directly to YouTube's beta service for linking transcripts with video playback.

And for translations, Spoolsource uses the same crowdsourcing methods using native speakers to translate webpages, surveys, text ads, product descriptions, instruction manuals, tags, keywords, subtitles, closed caption and other kinds of text necessary for localizing products and services.
