Fast, accurate transcription at surprisingly low cost I had five videos on our firm's website, and wanted to get transcriptions for them so that the search engines would index their content. I found Speechpad, uploaded the videos and the next day I had all five transcripts in my account. All that for less than $24 (even with the extra charge for faster processing). Accuracy was surprisingly good; I only needed to add a comma here and there to make it read better.

I am satisfied with the results I have been asked SpeechPad to transcript some files with quite difficult subjects. I am not 100% satisfied from the srt files, since they are not taking under consideration the subject of the speech and/or the pauses of the speaker. For example the speaker says something, pause for a minute maybe and then he changes the subject... but this is in one sentence in the srt file.... I have spent quite of time to update the srt files in a more proper narration before I upload them to the video. Also, I made the payments through bank transfers and afterwards I spent a lot of time and sent many emails trying to have the invoices marked as paid. Apart from that, there were some mistakes in the translation, some minor, some very understandable as there were references on foreign names etc, but some also were resulting in sentences that had a complete wrong gramar or had no meaning at all. Despite of all of the above, in general I am satisfied with the results of our cooperation in the meaning that they did a work that would take many weeks of my time to do it myself.

Portal improvement make your portal easier for me to upload a file then put the language and from what time frame to start/stop the transcription.

Good job Speechpad! Quick efficient and nearly always accurate. If the transcriber is unfamiliar with certain accents this could prove problematic.

Speechpad is accurate, fast and affordable In 2015 and 2016 I wrote two books on the Virginia Underground Press. I conducted about 50 interviews for both, and transcribing those interviews myself slowed the process down to about 1/4 of what it should have been. for my 12th book on the history of death penalty abolition in Virginia, I knew that because of tight deadlines I had to speed up the transcription process or I would miss them. Thank God I discovered Speechpad. I have submitted so far 9 interviews and they all came back virtually flawless - even difficult names are spelled correctly. And even though I sign up for the 4-day turnaround, I sometimes get them in 2 to 3 days. I heartily recommend Speechpad for ANY transcription services anyone needs. Fast, accurate and affordable. I am freaking impressed. Dale Brumfield Author / Journalist / Cultural Archaeologist
