How do I send you my files?
Audio and video files are uploaded via our secure online workflow system. We do not accept links or physical discs; all work is processed via our workflow system.
Once files have been processed, you will receive a notification with instructions on how to collect your transcripts.
How is the cost calculated?
Costs are calculated per recorded minute and are dependent on turnaround time selected. All seconds are rounded up to the next minute. For budget options, longer turnarounds are available.
Audio quality and number of speakers do not affect the cost. Default transcript is Standard Template and Intelligent Verbatim (see examples above). Time Coding, Full Verbatim and Special Formatting options incur a surcharge.
How long are quotes valid?
Quotes are valid for 30 days from date of quotation. Save your job as a draft should you wish to complete your order at a later stage.

Fast Transcripts With Options
When your file comes in for an EXPRESS turnaround, we get right to work. We listen to the file and allocate it to a ready-and-waiting transcriber (or captioner) who begins transcribing immediately. If you need the transcript super quick, we divide your audio into smaller sections and get several transcribers working on these sections simultaneously.
A dedicated Operations Manager coordinates the project and allocates to several transcribers. Then, as the transcribers complete and uploads the sections, our Operations team and workflow system “stitch” the pieces of your transcript back together into one fluid document and ensure consistency – fast!
When you choose one of our EXPRESS live transcription services option for your transcription needs, you can be sure that you’ll be extremely satisfied with your transcript, and happy for the speed of the turnaround.Way With Words transcription services provide the most experienced and highly trained transcriptionists in the industry.
