Opal Transcription Services provides professional text-to-text transcription, audio typing, and word processing services to businesses and professionals throughout the United States, Canada, and abroad. We work with North America-based typists with a strong grasp of the English language, so you can expect consistently high-quality work with every order.
Our word processing services
Whether you need audio files transcribed, or scanned pages, images, PDFs, or videos converted into a machine-readable digital text format, we can handle it.
We’ll deliver your completed documents back to you as a Microsoft Word document (.docx), text file with optional HTML formatting (.txt), or PDF.
Our word processing services include the following types of projects:
- Scanned files or PDFs to text. OCR is a useful tool, but it has its limitations when it comes to parsing unclear digital text or scanned handwriting. Let us convert your scanned pages or PDFs into a searchable and editable text format.
- Images to text. Nowadays, you can save any text in an instant by snapping a picture with your smart phone. With the help of our word processing services, you can convert that digital information into a more convenient machine-readable format.
- Video to text. We can transcribe any audio or text contained within a digital video file, including burned-in captions or subtitles.
- Audio typing and transcription. We’ve transcribed for clients in many industries, including entertainment, academic, education, corporate, and media. We can transcribe any audio or video content, such as podcasts, interviews, presentations, conference calls, meetings, sermons, market research, seminars, lectures, focus groups, earnings calls, symposia, qualitative research, dissertations, theses, speeches, oral histories, phone calls, and voice memos.
Word processing services rates
Our pricing is comparable to other word processing and transcription services that work with North America-based professional typists. Because there are multiple factors that affect the time it takes to complete a project, our word processing rates are assessed are on a per-project basis.
For audio typing and transcription services, we charge a per-audio-minute rate based on audio difficulty and speaker count.
