What Makes a Transcription Service Good?
If you’re looking to outsource transcription work, it’s essential to ask these questions to help you pick the right provider:
- Do they understand industry jargon?
- Do they know proper formatting?
- What are their procedures for a fast turnaround?
- How do they ensure accuracy?
- What are their pricing options?
- What is their local phone number and physical address?
- Do they have social media accounts? Check them out to assess native language and grammar.
- Are their service offerings closely related? Unrelated service offerings like web development could indicate that the company’s focus is not solely on transcription.
- Are they listed on Google with a real office address and included in the Yellow Pages?
- Can the company handle a difficult file with many similar-sounding words (e.g., access and excess, ceased and seized) and American slang (e.g., raining cats and dogs, airhead, bonkers) or brands (e.g., Crocs shoes, Chick-fil-A)?
Why Are These Things Important?
The transcription company you choose must be able to understand industry jargon, but it’s also equally important that they know proper formatting and the rationale behind it. If your transcripts are not correctly formatted, it will take time for your in-house staff to redraft and edit them. So, when searching for a company, make sure they will use the required formatting of your business or department.
You must hire a transcription provider with solid procedures to ensure a fast turnaround. Some companies can deliver documents in as little as three hours if they have an efficient system and dedicated employees.
Some transcription companies will offer different rates depending on how quickly the document is needed, so research the pricing options of several providers to ensure you’re getting the best bang for your buck.

There Is No Substitute For Human Intelligence
Using our online transcription services makes a ton of sense if you want real people doing the transcription. There’s no better way to prove that: by picking up your phone and attempting to converse with Siri. Humans can decipher slang and heavy accents with 99% accuracy, whereas voice recognition is only usually 50% accurate.
If you require speed and accuracy but aren’t a trained voice recognition editor with time to spare, hiring people to type your needed transcripts is a no-brainer. Real people can research everything to check what a word means and how it’s spelled. Computers can’t do that.
Ditto Transcripts Ensures Safe, Accurate, And Efficient Online Transcribing
Our online transcription services are 100% secure. From court documents to police reports to medical records to research projects and interview transcripts, we handle each project with the utmost privacy and confidentiality.
Your information is safe with us.
So don’t settle for less. Call us now at (720) 287-3710 or 855-287-3710 for the toll-free option.
General Transcription Services: FAQs
General transcription converts a wide range of audio, video, and document sources into clean, accurate written files. It covers everything that does not fall under a specialized field, from podcasts, interviews, and conference calls to sermons, webinars, voicemails, government meetings, and handwritten memoirs. At Ditto Transcripts, every file is handled by experienced, U.S.-based human transcribers, so whatever you need preserved comes back accurate and properly formatted.
We transcribe interviews, podcasts, webinars, conference and business calls, focus groups, government meetings, sermons, speeches, films, documentaries, TV, YouTube, online video, voicemails, books, and real estate recordings. We also handle copy typing from handwritten memoirs, PDFs, and printed documents. If your project is not on this list, contact us, because our general transcription work covers far more than one page can hold.
Copy typing, also called document-to-document transcription, turns existing material like memoirs, stories, handwritten notes, or PDFs into clean, readable digital documents that are easy to edit, share, and search. It is ideal for preserving older or handwritten work in a usable format. We apply the same 99% accuracy standard to copy typing that we apply to audio and video.
We use real, U.S.-based human transcribers, never automated voice recognition. The difference is evident in the results: human transcribers reach 99% accuracy even with slang and heavy accents, while voice recognition is typically only about 61.92% accurate. Real people can also research an unfamiliar word to confirm its meaning and spelling, which software simply cannot do.
Every general transcript carries our 99% accuracy guarantee, produced to your formatting specifications and requirements. Our transcribers handle similar-sounding words, American slang, brand names, and difficult audio that trip up automated tools. Each project is completed by trained professionals who undergo extensive screening, testing, and criminal background checks before hire.
A strong provider should understand industry jargon, know proper formatting and the reasoning behind it, and have solid procedures for fast, accurate turnaround. It helps to confirm they are a real U.S. company with a local phone number and physical address, a focused transcription business rather than a grab-bag of unrelated services, and transparent pricing options. Ditto Transcripts checks every one of those boxes, with U.S.-based human transcribers, a 99% accuracy guarantee, and clear pay-as-you-go rates.
Our standard turnaround is 3 to 5 business days, with extended pricing available at 6 to 10 business days for tighter budgets. Rush service delivers in 1 to 2 business days, and with an efficient file and a dedicated team lead transcriptionist, some rush requests can be completed in as little as a few hours. Call, email, or text our office for urgent jobs, and we will handle them as soon as possible.
General transcription uses simple tiered pricing per audio minute, with our standard rate starting at $1.75. Rush and extended options are available depending on how quickly you need your transcripts. Our pay-as-you-go guarantee means no hidden charges and no surprise line items, so you pay for what you need and not a penny more, with no long-term contract required.
