Traditionally, audio transcription was used for recording oral histories and music pieces. While audio transcription is still used in these ways, one of the most important uses today is to provide information that computers can read and process. Lionbridge’s transcription services allow you to maximize reach to your target audience online, especially if you’re looking to promote or sell products online. Having text to accompany the audio and video content on your website can result in higher search engine rankings and increased traffic.

Intelligent Verbatim Transcription
Intelligent verbatim transcription (also called clean verbatim or clean read transcription) is the process of transcribing spoken words, then editing the text to remove any pauses, false starts, or half-sentences. Lionbridge’s intelligent verbatim transcription services will provide you with a clean, easy-to-read text as the end result.
Strict Verbatim Transcription
Lionbride also offers strict verbatim transcription, where all spoken words are written down, and no edits are made. With strict verbatim transcription, your final transcript will include all ummm, hmmm, “you know,” pauses, and half-sentences.
Audio Transcription
Audio transcription is the process of converting speech into text. A lot of meaningful data is only available in spoken words on video and audio recordings. Lionbridge offers scalable, reliable audio transcription services in 300 languages. In addition to our standard audio transcription services, Lionbridge also offers add-on services such as multilingual audio, time stamping, and support for different file types.
Phonetic Transcription
Phonetic transcription (also called phonetic script or phonetic notation) is the visual representation of speech sounds. Each phonetic sound is represented by a symbol from the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). Use Lionbridge’s phonetic transcription services to ensure that your model can generate and understand natural language for a diverse group of users.
Video Transcription
Use Lionbridge’s video transcription services to convert what is spoken on video into written text, for subtitling or captioning. Video transcription makes your online videos more searchable and accessible because it provides a better UX for the viewer, and boosts SEO.
