What could you do with 3 hours 45 mins?

Accurate records in business

Be completely transparent with your team, clients, stakeholders and board members and protect yourself from potential litigation by engaging a third party to transcribe your audio recordings.

SmartPA has a dedicated team of highly experienced typists that are from middle management backgrounds.  All our assistants have undertaken our accredited administration qualification and adhere to internal quality standards.

On average 1 hour of recording will take 3 hours and 45 minutes to transcribe. Our service can really free up your working week!

 

 

First time considerations

Type of transcription

Verbatim (word for word including any ums or ers), intelligent verbatim (word for word excluding the ums or ers) or capture the overall context or idea?

Turnaround time

Let us help you meet your deadlines - whether that deadline is today or next week - our turnaround time can be rapid

Speakers and format

From 3 to 20+ speakers, let us capture their comments to show an accurate reflection of events  and deliver it in a branded or industry format

Did you know?

Transcription services can be used in any industry, but are most commonly associated with the medical, legal, media and the public sector.

Our transcription requests are varied.  We have partnered with Human Resources during HR tribunals but have also transcribed films, books, biographies, reports and business meetings.

Files and received and sent via our secure system which deploys 256-bit encryption and physical security policies as banks to upload your files to.  

We can also help with copy typing, see our document production services.

As easy as 1, 2, 3

If you are Windows based we recommend Audacity and Wavepad as digital audio platforms (2 of the most common recording tools).  For Mac users, Ocenaudio has had good feedback from clients.

If it's a short recording, you could use What's App and send it directly to your transcription assistant.  

To keep costs down, make sure there is a clear structure to your recordings - keep the pauses and silences down to a minimum and speak as clearly as possible.

  • "We now have the best of both worlds"

    We liked the flexibility of having full-time admin support for only a fraction of the cost. We now have the best of both worlds in that we always have SmartPA on the end of the phone without the fully loaded burden of an employee – it’s exactly what we wanted to achieve to allow me to focus on more important things like revenue and actually running the business.

    Anthony Durdin, Velocity Consulting

  • "Their service is highly reliable"

    SmartPA was able to provide the right skill set and professionalism required…their service is highly reliable and competent, so much so that we have engaged them on a permanent basis to support our ongoing business growth.

    Audrey Cassels, Jigsaw PR
