Transcription Services in Puerto Rico

Yes. Transcription is available to anyone in Puerto Rico and across the Caribbean, on the same published rates and the same turnaround as everywhere else. Files move in and out online, so where you are makes no difference to the price, the deadline or who does the work.

The regular sources of transcription work here are pharmaceutical and medical device plants and the contract manufacturers around them; the commonwealth courts and the federal district court in San Juan; and cruise and tourism operations, federal programme offices and agricultural producers. Each has its own formatting expectations, and those are agreed at quoting stage, which is what stops a first delivery coming back for rework.

General transcription starts at $1 per audio minute and legal transcription at $2. Standard turnaround is the published rate, and the premium for speed is shown separately instead of folded in. Being in Puerto Rico changes nothing about the rate, because the same published prices apply across the Caribbean and everywhere else. Nothing starts before you approve that figure in writing, and the invoice matches it exactly.

You are given a date, not a range: rush delivery within 2 to 24 hours where it is urgent, and a firm delivery time in the quote where it is not. Because orders from Puerto Rico are handled online, nothing waits on a courier, an appointment or office hours. The quote states the delivery time as firmly as the price, because speed is what this site is for.

The standard is 99+%, reached by doing the job twice: one person produces the file, and a second checks it before release. Local detail is where a distant supplier slips - street names in Puerto Rico, the institutions around it, the bodies people file with across the Caribbean - so those are checked against the source.

Yes. NDAs cover every person on the project, uploads and deliveries are encrypted, and nobody outside the assigned team can open your material. A lot of what arrives from Puerto Rico comes from the commonwealth courts and the federal district court in San Juan, where the material is sensitive, so restricted access is the default. Rush work still goes only to the assigned pair, because a shortcut on access is not one worth taking.

Word, PDF, Excel, Google Docs or plain text, or your own template applied so the file comes back ready to use. Headings, tables and numbering are built properly instead of pasted in. Everything is returned by email in the format you asked for, which is why clients in Puerto Rico never need to collect anything. Files come back in whichever format gets them into use fastest, with no reformatting at your end.

Most of it is tied to the commonwealth courts and the federal district court in San Juan. Alongside that comes material from pharmaceutical and medical device plants and the contract manufacturers around them. Local names, street names and institution names are checked against the source, because a local name got wrong is the first thing an audience in Puerto Rico notices. A rush job is split across several people working to one style sheet, then reconciled before delivery.

Yes. The transcription requests that come up most around Puerto Rico are Spanish, English and Haitian Creole, and 100+ other languages are available. Every file goes to a native speaker of the language, and material that switches language partway through is kept as it was.

There is no office to visit. Upload, email or share a cloud link, and the finished transcription is returned by email, usually without anyone needing to speak to you at all unless something in the material needs a decision. Clients across the Caribbean work this way, and so do clients nowhere near it.
