Transcription is priced per audio minute, not per page or per word. This explains what sits behind the rate and how to work out what a file will cost.

Corporate Transcription
Board minutes, workplace investigations and executive sessions carry consequences. The transcript has to be accurate, and it has to stay confidential.

What experience changes
Corporate recordings are often less tidy than they appear on a calendar. A board meeting can move from prepared remarks to open discussion in seconds. A workplace investigation may include pauses, interruptions, competing accounts, and emotionally charged language. Remote calls add dropped connections, unidentified voices, and people speaking across one another. Our team has more than fifteen years of transcription experience across board work, executive interviews, investigations, and internal meetings. We know that the value of the document lies in making a complicated conversation usable without rewriting it into something it was not.
Before we begin, we ask for the practical details: the purpose of the transcript, the people expected on the call, any required confidentiality agreement, and the format the recipient needs. Some clients require a full verbatim record. Others need formal minutes, a structured interview transcript, or a concise meeting summary alongside the full record. We keep those deliverables separate. A summary can help a reader navigate the discussion, but it should never quietly replace the source transcript where exact wording and attribution matter.
Our reviewers follow each speaker through the recording, checking introductions, handovers, and places where two voices overlap. Names, project titles, numbers, dates, and decisions receive the same care as the surrounding speech. We work from your template and glossary where available, and we flag an unclear passage rather than selecting the most convenient interpretation. Access is limited to the people assigned to your file. That combination of careful listening, stable speaker attribution, and controlled handling is what turns an internal recording into a document executives, HR teams, and counsel can actually use.
For recurring meetings, we retain the agreed naming and formatting conventions so the next transcript feels familiar to the people who have to read it, while each recording is still checked on its own merits.

What makes this audio hard
Why this audio is difficult
Large rooms, remote participants on poor connections, and a dozen voices where attribution actually matters. Investigation audio adds emotional, overlapping speech that automatic tools routinely misassign.
How we handle it
Our approach
Multi-speaker corporate audio is drafted, then reviewed by people who track each speaker through the session, verify attribution at every handover, and apply your minute or report format. Sensitive material is handled by named reviewers under non-disclosure agreement.
Non-disclosure agreements are standard. Access is limited to the named team on your account.
FAQ
Common questions
Can you work under your NDA?
Yes. We sign your NDA before receiving any audio, and access is restricted to the named reviewers on your account.
Can you produce minutes rather than a full transcript?
Yes. We produce verbatim transcripts, summarised minutes, or both from the same recording. Tell us which format you file.
