We are grateful to researchers who help us improve every day
"For our research project “Solidarity in times of a pandemic+ Latin America, we conducted over 600 interviews in Spanish and Portuguese that had to be transcribed as quickly as possible. Using Scrintal helped us save a ton of time by allowing multiple teams to work on their transcriptions simultaneously, allowing us to get our project off the ground."

We also offer the perfect transcription option which means our human transcribers manually perfect your transcription for you, providing a 99% accuracy. To request a perfect transcript please contact us.
How fast do I receive the transcriptions?
This depends on your internet speed but in a normal situation, it should take about 5-10 minutes to receive the initial draft transcript of a 1 hour recording.
How can I take advantage of the student prices?
You will need to verify yourself as a student to take advantage of this. When you click "Buy Hours" once you are in your dashboard, you will see a button called "Activate" in the student pricing box. You will need to complete your profile and upload a proof of your studies. You will receive a confirmation email once it is approved and a green tick icon will appear in the student price box.
