Transcription and Subtitling Services in Dubai

Headphones, audio interface and laptop on a desk — transcription and subtitling services in Dubai

Recordings turned into text you can submit, publish or read

We transcribe Arabic and English audio and video, translate the transcript where needed, and produce subtitles. A large part of this work is legal: recorded calls, meetings and voice notes that end up in a case file and therefore have to be accurate rather than approximate.

Send the file on WhatsApp with its length, and the cost and turnaround come back within 15 minutes.

What we handle

Transcription

Audio and video turned into text in the same language, with speaker labels and timestamps where you need them.

Transcription plus translation

An Arabic recording transcribed and delivered in English, or the reverse — with certified translation available when the transcript is going to an authority.

Subtitling

Time-coded subtitle files (SRT or VTT), or subtitles burned into the video, for training material, marketing and social content.

Voice-over

Recorded narration in Arabic or English for training videos, corporate material and presentations.

Three levels of transcript

These are not quality tiers. They are different products, and picking the wrong one causes problems later.

Verbatim

Every word exactly as spoken, including hesitations, repetitions, interruptions and pauses. This is the level legal work needs — editing a recording that will be relied on as evidence changes it.

Intelligent

Filler words and false starts removed, grammar lightly corrected. Suitable for meeting minutes, interviews and internal records.

Edited

Restructured into clean readable prose. For publication, reports and marketing, where readability matters more than exactness.

How it works

1

Send the file

WhatsApp, email or a shared link. Tell us the language, the total duration and what the transcript is for.

2

Quote in 15 minutes

Transcription is priced by recording duration, not by word count, so you know the cost before we start.

3

Delivered as you need it

Word or PDF for transcripts, SRT or VTT for subtitles, and certified and stamped when the transcript is being submitted somewhere.

Human transcription, reviewed. Automatic speech tools still fail badly on Gulf and Egyptian dialect, on crosstalk, and on poor phone recordings — which is most of what arrives here. Every transcript is produced and checked by a person, and recordings are treated as confidentially as documents.

Frequently asked questions

Can you transcribe Arabic dialects?
Yes. Gulf and Egyptian dialect are the most common, and both are handled by people rather than software. Tell us the dialect when you send the file so we assign the right person.
Can the transcript be certified for court?
Yes. We are a legal translation office approved by the UAE Ministry of Justice, so a transcript and its translation can be certified and stamped for submission. Ask for verbatim level in that case.
How is it priced?
By the duration of the recording, with the audio quality and number of speakers taken into account. Send the file or tell us its length on WhatsApp and the figure comes back within 15 minutes.
What if the audio quality is poor?
Send it anyway. We will listen to a sample first and tell you honestly what is recoverable and what is not, before quoting, rather than delivering a transcript full of gaps.
