If it's recorded, and in English, we can type it

Do you need a fast, professional transcription service? We can help:

Whether you are a university researcher, run your own business, or work for a company, why struggle to type up audio recordings? You can concentrate on other, more important, things and leave us to transcribe your work quickly, accurately and professionally. We are very flexible and work to your deadlines.

No matter the type of recordings (providing the participants are speaking English) we can help, whether they are:
  • Dictation
  • 1-2-1 Interviews
  • Focus groups
  • Seminars
  • Lectures
  • Video/TV/Film files

Basically, if it's been recorded and in English, we can transcribe it.  Strangest transcription job: Transcribe a recording of parrot sayings!
All work is treated as confidential and, if required, we can encrypt and password the typing before emailing back to you.

There are set pages for Researchers/University Administrators and Companies/Organisations.

Please note: Typing hour vs recorded hour

All charges mentioned throughout this site (unless specifically stated) are based on typing hour - which isn't the same as "recorded hour".

If a recording is one hour in length it can take 4, 5, 6, (or more) times the length of the recording to type. So, for example, a clear, high quality, one-to-one interview recorded in a quiet atmosphere that lasts for one hour can take between four and five hours to type. Therefore, our charge would be based on the 4 to 5 hours' worth of typing.

A very brief history of APA Secretarial

We were established in 1996 to provide a copy and audio transcription service. Since 1998 we have been hired regularly by researchers at universities right across Great Britain, covering all four points of the compass (Aberdeen to Brighton, Cardiff to East Anglia). Companies from as far away as Abu Dhabi and Western Australia have also used our services for dictation and completing transcripts of video-recorded seminars.

We have also been hired by authors to transcribe interviews for biographies on people including Pete Burns, Martin O'Neill and Hegel and the sci-fi series Farscape.

Looking for another service...?

If you're looking for a secretarial service other than audio transcription, don't hesitate to email us. We have links with several other Virtual Assistants, etc., that we can recommend (and we don't accept a referrer's fee).

We also have contacts in many other businesses and industries, so we can probably provide you with the details of a great company to approach no matter what you require.
