Hello,
(I believe I've bid on your other project)
I have over a decade of transcription experience working with a variety of accents and across many fields of interest. My rate for transcription is $.95US per audio minute, which is $1450US for 25 hours of audio transcription. If you're willing to hire me directly, I can give you a better price than what your current project budget is.
Included in that rate is a Word document formatted to indicate each speaker. I do not use speech-to-text software, so you audio files are listened to by me. I strive for 100% accuracy, but if there are words or phrases I cannot understand, those are highlighted with a timestamp so you may clarify those instances.
I proofread each transcript to ensure the highest quality document for you.
My usual turnaround time is 1/5...one hour of audio transcribed in five hours. With the amount of interviews you have, I'd be working with you for at least a month. I frequently work with clients long-term, so there's no need to worry I'll abandon you mid-project.
I will also only charge for the actual minutes transcribed at the rate quoted. If a file is less than 60 minutes, you'll only be charged for the actual time. Freelancer offers an invoicing system that works well for keeping track of work completed and helps you know exactly what you're paying for and when.
Feel free to check my feedback for similar projects. And if you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me directly.
