The Hidden Cost of Unprocessed Audio
Why Manual Transcription Hurts Your Bottom Line
The Business Challenge
Traditional approaches to handling audio content create significant operational bottlenecks:
- Manual transcription is expensive, with costs ranging from $1-$3 per minute of audio
- Turnaround times for human transcription can be 24+ hours, delaying insights and action
- Quality inconsistencies lead to unreliable data for decision-making
- Valuable information remains siloed and unsearchable across your organization
For a company with just 100 hours of client calls, meetings, and content monthly, the cost exceeds $12,000 annually - without considering the opportunity cost of delayed insights and action.
