Real-Time Transcribing Software is designed for multi-channel audio recording and near-real-time verbatim transcribing of court proceedings, conferences, meetings, negotiations, speeches, interviews, lectures in near real-time mode with segmentation overlap.

Description

Real-Time Transcribing Software includes a recording and transcribing server, as well as workstations of transcriptionists, editors (supervisor of transcriptionists’ group), correctors and administrators.

While audio recording is conducted virtual fragments of the audio record are distributed between transcriptionists subsequently. Each transcriptionist works on his assigned audio fragment. Each text fragment is linked with the audio fragment. All text fragments are gathered into a single document.

If the recorded file is to be transcribed, the fragments are distributed to all transcribers simultaneously.
