Podcast Transcription
Highly accurate and reliable podcast transcription services brought to you by professional transcriptionists and innovative technology.

Premium Transcription Built for Podcasts

SEO
A study with This American Life (TAL) demonstrated that adding transcripts boosts SEO. Adding transcripts allows search engines to crawl the full text of your audio content so that is can be properly indexed.

Podcast Editing
With a perfectly time stamped transcript, you’ll be able to quickly tell your audio engineer what to cut and what to move around.

Accessibility
Transcripts provide a critical alternative for the 48 million Americans with hearing loss and the 360 million people worldwide who experience disabling hearing loss.

Compliance
Transcripts can help your podcast meet ADA guidelines and help you avoid a costly lawsuit.

Derivative Content & Translation
Transcripts can be easily turned into outlines for a blog post or eBook, used to identify pull quotes for articles, or translated into foreign languages.

Interactivity
Adding an interactive plugin to your website allows visitors to engage with your audio content in an entirely new way. Visitors can search the spoken audio and jump to any point in the podcast by clicking a word in the transcript.
Make your podcast searchable with interactive transcripts that improve SEO, boost engagement, and provide accessibility!
