What does Aquarius Transcription Services do?
We provide high-quality audio or video transcription to businesses and individuals. In other words, we take your digital audio or video file and transcribe the spoken words into printed text and email the completed document back to you. We're a US-based company that transcribes spoken English into English text. We work diligently to deliver a clean, accurate transcript to each of our clients in the form of a Microsoft Word document. We primarily use the standard verbatim method of transcribing, meaning we omit all instances of uh, um, stuttering, repeated words, and false starts. All other words are transcribed as spoken. The result is a clean transcript that's a pleasure to read.
How would our service benefit you or your business?
All sorts of people use transcriptionists: businesses and organizations, doctors, lawyers, nonprofits, academics and students, authors, podcasters, bloggers, online learning platforms, personal development coaches, and more. A written transcript provides a permanent, searchable record of your audio or video content. It makes quoting or sharing of your content simpler. Additionally, when published to the web, a written transcript will help you reach more people because it allows your content to be found by mainstream search engines, such as Google. Also, if your content is available in more than one form, you will have a greater reach because many people would rather read than watch a video or listen to an audio recording. Essentially, a written transcript increases the likelihood that people will find, access, and engage with your content.
A transcript will not only help you, but it will also benefit the people who want to understand or experience your message, but aren't able to hear it. Similar to captions, transcripts are appreciated by people who are deaf or hard of hearing, people who are unable to play audio or video files on their devices, and people with no sound on their devices or who have no access to headphones and can't play sound where they may disturb others, such as the workplace or a public setting.
