Trusted Language Support for Audio and Video Content
Professional Transcription Services for Accurate Text
Since 1978, Omni has helped organizations capture and share information through transcription services tailored to compliance and multilingual requirements. We convert audio and video into text that is easy to review, search, distribute and repurpose across your whole organization.
We can provide verbatim or edited transcripts, and support additional quality measures including proofreading, linguistic review, speaker identification, and timecoding to help create a final document that meets your specific requirements.
As a full-service transcription company, transcripts can also be professionally formatted by our in-house production studio, prepared for publication through desktop publishing (DTP), and translated into multiple languages as part of a coordinated language services workflow.
Security is an important part of every project, so we work through secure workflows and controlled file-handling processes designed to protect your sensitive information. Our approach emphasizes data security and responsible handling of client content, helping organizations meet internal governance requirements and regulatory obligations, including GDPR-related considerations.
We support a wide range of content types, such as board meetings, legal proceedings, witness statements, lectures, research projects, phonetic and IPA studies, training sessions, YouTube videos, podcasts, focus groups, clinical trial recordings, and technical discussions.
Our Transcription Process
Of course, every project is different, but here’s an example of how our typical transcription workflow may look.
We begin by reviewing your files and confirming factors such as turnaround time and transcript style. Your assigned contact will ensure your workflow matches your objectives from the outset.
Your files are received through secure channels. We identify any technical considerations and prepare the content for transcription.
Our team converts the source audio or video into text, following the agreed-upon requirements. Depending on the project, transcripts may be verbatim or edited for clear readability.
Transcripts can be proofread, reviewed, timecoded, and prepared with speaker identification where required.
We can also support translation, formatting and desktop publishing, as well as subtitling and voice-over services.
Completed transcripts are delivered in the format that you request, which may include standard text files, formatted documents, or subtitle files.
Need a faster turnaround? Urgent workflows can often be accommodated, and project specifications can be adjusted to balance speed.
Transcription Tailored Around Your Requirements
Omni provides tailored, turnkey solutions designed around your content and delivery requirements.
Flexible Transcription Methods
We offer a range of transcription styles to suit different use cases, including verbatim transcription, intelligent verbatim, and edited transcripts.
We can also support specialist requirements such as YouTube transcripts, copy typing projects, phonetic and IPA transcription, accessible formats, and braille-related workflows where required.
Secure File Handling
From initial file receipt to final delivery, projects are managed through our secure workflows and controlled file-handling procedures. Your dedicated project manager helps maintain oversight throughout the process, while our approach to data security supports organizations handling confidential content.
For organizations considering automated solutions, it is important to recognize that publicly available AI transcription tools may not always meet requirements for sensitive content.
Quality Control
Your transcription accuracy is supported through structured quality control processes that can include proofreading, formatting and final quality assurance checks.
Where projects require specialist knowledge, such as a complex legal matter, we match your work with a language professional who has experience to the subject matter and content type involved.
Comprehensive Range of Transcription Services
Clean Verbatim
Clean verbatim transcripts remove false starts, filler words, repeated phrases, and minor speech habits to create a more readable document.
True Verbatim
True verbatim transcription captures speech exactly as spoken. This option is commonly used for situations where a accurate record is required.
Publication-Ready
When transcripts are intended for external audiences, we can provide publication-ready versions that have been reviewed for readability.
Alternative Formats
We can support alternative transcript formats, including large print, braille-related workflows, and other accessibility-focused deliverables.
Copy Typing
We can accommodate copy typing services for handwritten notes, printed records, historical materials, and other hard-copy content.
