Transcribe audio and video for your online offerings:	Although it may be obvious, our standard transcription services can be tailored to meet the needs for your web or Internet offerings.  Your site may be enhanced by providing text transcripts of audio.  Unlike audio, text can be easily searched on the Internet.  Also, hearing-impared customers may not be able to take advantage of your audio offerings.  Having alternative textual content can help target this audience. If you already have a printout of text you'd like on your web site, we can convert it to a text file through scanning and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) or manual typing, which ever is more efficient.
