Competitive pricing tailored to your needs
Transcription
I charge $30CA per hour of work, and it can take between 3.5 and 4.5 hours of work to transcribe 60 minutes of audio. Rush rates may apply for tight deadlines.
Did you know: Looking at the number of audio minutes is too simplistic when trying to assess the workload for transcription. Other factors to consider are clarity of audio and ambient noise levels, number of people participating, speed and clarity of speech, etc. The average word count for 60 minutes audio is 8,500 but the range extends from 6,000 to 12,000 words! For all these reasons, a per-hour-of-work rate has become my favourite to work with over the years but if you prefer a per-minute-audio rate, let me know and I will provide you with a quote that matches your preference.
Translation
From English to French, and French to English, my standard rate is $0.23CA per word for the translation of written documents.
For translation review of written documents, and for translation+transcription in one step (where you provide me with audio in one language and I provide you with transcripts in the other) I charge $45 per hour of work and it usually takes 4.5 to 6 hours of work to translate+transcribe 60 minutes audio.
