Rates

Rates are calculated per audio minute/hour. 

Turnaround time is estimated after an initial review of the audio file(s).

Consideration is given to audio quality, number of speakers, level of difficulty, etc.

Timestamps are billed at the Focus Group rates.

Next-day requests received after 12 noon Eastern will land on the next business day’s schedule and completed the day after that.
