The fastest way to get transcription for your audio or video is through an automated transcription service.
Automated transcription is fast because the process to convert audio into text is done entirely by machines. The technology that powers these machines can process large amounts of data very quickly.
The length of time depends on the length of your audio or video file. For a 30 minute file, the typical turnaround time is roughly 5 minutes. For an hour-long file, the typical turnaround time is roughly 10 minutes.
Automated transcription is basically on par with human transcription. However, audio and video files that are poorly recorded, have lots of background noise, or have people talking over each other will likely not be transcribed as accurately as a human transcriptionist.
Sonix.ai was ranked highest in terms of accuracy by an independent study from PopUpPodcasting recently updated in December 20171.
