Our Top Five Uses for Transcription Services

When it comes to finding uses for transcription services, there are many options.

There are so many useful things you can do with a transcript, so we thought we’d highlight our top five!

Foreign Language Transcription

While there are many translation companies around, most concentrate on document translation only, with very few carrying out their own transcription services. Transcripts can then be translated if required or transcripts can be converted to subtitles, closed captions or for use in court depending on the files sent.

Transcription Services for Accessibility

When it comes to accessibility, transcription services are essential. Carefully timed transcripts can be used for creating closed captions for the deaf and hard of hearing, they can also be used to create audio descriptions that are in sync with video for those with vision loss. Finally, as above, transcripts can be translated to allow accessibility to speakers of different languages in the form of transcripts, interactive transcripts or subtitles.
