Frequently asked questions

Dictation transcription converts recorded speech, voice notes, or narrated scripts into clean, searchable text for editing, captions, or localization. Teams use it to turn rough voice tracks into training materials, on‑screen text, and compliance documentation. It’s helpful for storyboarding, version control, and creating SDH captions from producer narration or instructor voiceovers.

Human transcription delivers up to 99.4% accuracy on clear audio and handles jargon, acronyms, and speaker changes reliably. Independent reviewers back this: The New York Times Wirecutter (Sept 2025) wrote, “GoTranscript is the best service for people who need the most accurate transcripts.” See Wirecutter’s review (Sept 2025).

Yes, we convert dictations into SDH captions with speaker labels, non‑speech cues, and timed subtitle files (SRT, VTT). You can upload your audio or video and receive properly segmented captions aligned to platform standards. Upload files for SDH captioning.

Yes, workflows support HIPAA alignment for PHI and GDPR readiness with role‑based access, confidentiality agreements, and PII protection. Editors view the full file for quality control, while transcribers see segmented audio to minimize exposure. Review security and compliance practices.

Standard delivery fits most projects, with optional rush for tighter schedules and large‑team scaling for bulk audio. Actual times depend on audio length, complexity, accents, and add‑ons like timestamps or SDH captioning. We do not provide real‑time transcription and give ETAs before checkout for predictability.

Pricing is based on audio length and selected options such as timestamps, verbatim level, or SDH captioning. Human transcription is priced per audio minute with add‑ons clearly itemized, so teams can forecast budgets for series or courses. See human transcription rates and options.

Yes, automated transcription is faster and lower cost, best for internal drafts, speaker notes, or quick edits. Human transcription is preferred when accuracy, names, and technical terms matter, or when SDH captions and compliance are required. Review automated transcription pricing.

The web interface is straightforward for bulk uploads, order tracking, and versioning across series. PCMag rated GoTranscript 4.5/5 (Apr 22, 2025) as an “Excellent … best online transcription service for accurate and affordable human‑made transcriptions … straightforward web interface.” Read PCMag’s review (Apr 22, 2025).

Yes, the Transcription API supports programmatic uploads, status polling, and webhooks for completion events so you can trigger downstream captioning or LMS updates. Authentication and sample code help teams integrate quickly. Explore the Transcription API features.

Yes, enterprise accounts can enable SSO and set permissions by role to control who uploads dictations, reviews transcripts, or exports captions. NDAs are available, and audit‑friendly workflows help with compliance across departments and vendors. See enterprise transcription solutions.
