Transcription Services
Accurate written records for research, meetings, interviews and recorded content.
Linguative transcribes interviews, focus group discussions, meetings and audio or video recordings in Arabic and English for organizations that need reliable documentation for reporting, research, monitoring or post-event use.
What the scope can include
Arabic and English transcription
Clear speaker structure where required
Confidential handling
Review-ready written output
Time references when scoped
What to send for a quotation
Share the recording language, duration, number of speakers, audio quality and deadline. Explain how you will use the transcript, whether speaker labels or time references are needed, and whether translation is a separate requirement. A short sample helps assess overlapping speech, dialect and background noise.
How the assignment is planned and delivered
- 1.
Assess the recording and agree the transcription style and output requirements.
- 2.
Prepare and review the written record using the agreed speaker and time-reference structure.
- 3.
Deliver the transcript in the agreed format, with unclear passages identified rather than guessed.
Deliverables and scope boundaries
A transcript records spoken content. It is different from summarized meeting minutes and from translation into another language. Agree whether a verbatim or edited record is appropriate, and confirm any translation or summary as a separate deliverable.
What affects the quotation
Recording length, intelligibility, language or dialect, speaker overlap, time references, output style and deadline affect the quotation. File duration alone does not describe the effort required.
Questions about this service
Can you transcribe video as well as audio?
Yes. Arabic and English transcription can be scoped for audio or video recordings. Share a sample so the usable audio and required output can be assessed.
Can the transcript include timestamps and speaker labels?
Time references and speaker structure can be agreed in the brief. Specify the detail you need; speaker identification depends on the recording and information supplied.
