Frequently asked questions
Does GMR Transcription use AI?
No. GMR Transcription uses US-based human transcribers exclusively — no AI-generated content. Every transcript is produced entirely by a human transcriber. This is a key differentiator from platforms like Transcribio or Happy Scribe that combine AI and human review.
What verbatim level does GMR Transcription use?
GMR Transcription uses strict (full) verbatim: capture every word exactly as spoken including all filler words (um, uh, hmm, you know, like), false starts, repetitions, and stutters. Nothing is cleaned or omitted. This is the same level as Scribie's default.
How are false starts formatted in GMR Transcription?
False starts are captured with an em dash at the point of interruption: "I — I was thinking about the report." The stutter is included exactly as spoken. For repeated words: "the the project" is transcribed as "the the project" — no correction.
What is GMR Transcription's turnaround time?
GMR Transcription offers standard (1–2 business days), rush (same day), and super rush (within hours) turnaround options. Rates increase with faster turnaround. Human-only transcription naturally takes longer than AI-assisted services.
What clients does GMR Transcription serve?
GMR Transcription serves legal firms (depositions, hearings), medical providers (dictation, consultations), academic researchers (interviews, focus groups), and businesses. Their strict verbatim and human-only model is preferred for content requiring guaranteed accuracy.
