FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Cannot find your answer? Ask our team or email contact@researchandmetric.com.
What is research transcription?
Typing up recorded interviews, groups or diaries into text, so researchers can read, code and quote what participants said.
Verbatim or clean transcripts?
Verbatim keeps every word, pause and filler. Clean removes fillers while keeping the meaning. We do both.
Can you translate transcripts?
Yes. We provide translated transcripts, or the original and translation side by side.
How do you keep recordings confidential?
Files are shared and stored securely, accessed only by the people working on them and deleted when the project ends.
