What Is A Transcriber?

If you watch movies or videos, you’ve probably noticed the subtitles at the bottom of the screen. The people who type those texts are called transcribers.

Transcribers are hired by universities, law firms, medical centers, marketing agencies and many other types of companies – to transcribe audio into text.

Companies across the world rely on transcribers daily to listen to their video and audio files and type them out into text documents.

What Does A Transcriber Do?

A transcriber listens to recordings or attends live events and types the contents into a document, which is then returned to the client so that they will have a written record of what was said.
