I have several hours of university-style lectures recorded in Persian (Farsi) that need to be turned into accurate text. The material is strictly lecture-based—no interviews or podcasts—so the structure is fairly linear, but the audio itself can be challenging. Background chatter, air-conditioning hum, and the occasional mic pop are all present, so solid listening skills and good noise-handling techniques are important. Vocabulary is general; there is no specialised jargon to navigate. I simply need every spoken word captured clearly in Persian, with sensible line breaks and basic speaker cues when a new voice is obvious. Deliverables • Verbatim Persian transcript for each audio file (Word or Google Docs) • Time-stamps every 30–45 seconds, or at slide/section changes if you hear them • File naming that mirrors the original audio filenames I pay per finished audio hour and you are welcome to work remotely on your own schedule. If you regularly use tools such as Express Scribe, oTranscribe, or Audacity’s noise reduction, you’ll find the workflow straightforward. Let me know your turnaround time for one hour of audio and the software you prefer, and we can get started right away.

Salam, I’m fluent in Dari and Farsi. I can manually transcribe your Persian audio accurately, including timestamps and clear formatting. I don’t rely on translation websites/automated transcription software or know about them. I listen and transcribe the audio manually, which allows me to pay close attention to every word, especially if the audio is unclear. My rate is $15 per finished audio hour. Before starting the full project, I’d be happy to do a small sample from your audio for free so you can check the accuracy and quality of my work. If you send me a short sample, I can get started right away.

Hello, As a native Farsi speaker, accurate Persian transcription is a strong fit for my skills. I can carefully listen to the lectures, handle background noise, and provide a clear verbatim transcript with sensible line breaks and timestamps. The files can be delivered in Word or Google Docs with the original file names maintained. For one hour of audio, the turnaround time can be discussed based on the audio quality and workload. Accuracy and attention to every spoken word will be my main priority.
