High-quality transcription services for Ottawa businesses
Nowadays, it’s hard to find a transcription company that doesn’t outsource transcription overseas or use auto-transcription software to generate their transcripts. We don’t do either of these things: Our transcriptionists all reside in Canada and the United States. They have professional backgrounds in language-focused fields, such as teaching, editing, and writing. Therefore, we’re able to provide a standard of quality that keeps our clients coming back.
As word nerds and online research experts, we pay attention to the details. For example, we follow a house guide for consistent styling of all the parts that make up the transcript, like timestamps, numerals, titles of works, dates, addresses, dimensions, and quotations. We also research the correct spelling and capitalization of brands, businesses, names, and places. For these reasons, our transcription service is perfect for journalists, podcasters, authors, filmmakers, and other professionals who publish their transcripts online.
And because we’re a small business, we’re able to provide prompt customer service with a single point of contact. Our email response times are very fast!
In addition to audio and video transcription, we also offer document typing services: If you need PDF or JPEG files converted into editable text documents, please see our online typing services page for more information.
Research transcription services for Ottawa students
Our team is experienced at transcribing qualitative research in healthcare and the social sciences, such as interviews and focus groups.
We offer special rates to students of Ottawa universities, including the University of Ottawa and Carleton University.
To request more info, send us a message with a few details about your qualitative research project. Before we receive your audio, we’ll sign the confidentiality agreement provided by your research coordinator. If you don’t have a research confidentiality agreement on hand, we can supply a standard agreement for you.
If you’re writing a grant application, we can provide a quote.
How we price our services
Our rates are very competitive with other Ottawa transcription services. We charge per audio minute based on number of speakers and audio quality.
We offer two styles of transcription:
- Clean verbatim transcription (lightly edited to remove filler speech, but otherwise matches the dictation)
- True verbatim transcription (captures every utterance, including um’s, uh’s, stutters, and nonessential filler speech)
We charge an extra fee for true verbatim transcription because these transcripts can take significantly longer to produce. Most clients prefer clean verbatim transcription because the transcripts cost less and are easier to read.

We have secure services available to you for uploading audio and video files and receiving your completed transcripts. Alternately, we can work with your preferred file-sharing and collaboration software, such as SharePoint, Dropbox, or Google Drive.
We can also sign your NDA or confidentiality agreement before receiving your project files.
