Time-coded transcripts of video in English, French and 300+ other languages.
Video transcription produces a written, time-coded record of everything said in a video, so you can search it, edit from it, make it accessible or translate it. Prism Linguistics transcribes training videos, interviews, webinars, marketing content, footage used as evidence and raw production material in English, French and 300+ other languages.
Transcripts are prepared and checked by people. Send the file or a link, the language and the format you need, and you receive a fixed written quote, usually within 60 minutes.
The transcript format depends on what happens next.
Time-coded transcripts of interviews and raw footage let editors find quotes and build a paper edit without scrubbing through hours of video.
A transcript alongside a video helps people who are Deaf or hard of hearing and anyone who prefers to read. For on-screen text, see subtitling and captioning.
Course videos and webinars turned into searchable text, handouts or the source for translated versions.
Surveillance, body-worn camera, interview and social media video transcribed verbatim, with translation for other languages.
Video interviews and focus groups, with speakers labelled and non-verbal notes where they matter.
Transcripts of videos and webinars repurposed as articles, quotes and social content.
Transcripts are delivered in Word or PDF, or in your template. For subtitle files such as SRT or VTT, the transcript becomes the starting point for subtitling.
For a video in a language other than English or French, we transcribe it in the original language and translate the transcript into English or French, keeping the time codes so each translated line can be found in the video. When only the meaning is needed, the video can be translated directly into an English or French transcript.
Audio-only recordings, such as calls and voicemails, are covered on our audio transcription page.
Send the video, choose the format, receive a checked transcript.
