Transcription services for today’s business world
Did you know that there are now over four billion internet users worldwide, 10.5 million videos on Facebook alone, and over two million podcasts (with more than 48 million episodes)? That all amounts to one heck of a lot of data. How are companies managing this data? How are they ensuring it is accurately shared with their global audience? And for some highly regulated industries like the world of finance, how are companies maintaining data security? The answer lies in three words — professional transcription services.
As a written record of audio and video files, transcriptions are ideal for all of your video publications, podcasts, and online meetings. Although this service has been around forever, transcriptions are as relevant today as ever before. In fact, when we consider the enormous amount of online data the world consumes, some might even argue that transcriptions are even more relevant in today’s business world.

“These transcripts preserve the purity of intent behind a speaker’s statements for those occasions where every detail is of critical importance. The words are written exactly as spoken, with the only omissions being ‘mm’s, ah’s, and ‘mm-hmm’s,” explains one of our Editors.
