Focus groups produce valuable qualitative data. For analysis, researchers need a transcript that is easy to navigate and consistently structured.

McGowan Transcriptions produces research-ready focus group transcripts with consistent speaker labels, allowing the research team to begin coding without first reorganising the document.

The discussion may be over, but the transcript keeps the research moving.

Important decisions are often revisited long after a meeting has ended. Finding one exchange in hours of audio can feel like looking for a needle in a haystack.

McGowan Transcriptions produces accurate, searchable transcripts of board meetings and other corporate recordings.

The detail is then easy to locate whenever it needs checking.

After months spent writing a dissertation or research paper, familiar text can become surprisingly difficult to proofread.

Our native English-speaking proofreaders check academic work for errors in written English and make sure references follow the required style, including Harvard or APA.

You’ve done the research. Let us make sure a missed error doesn’t get the final word.

Translating a website word for word is not enough to make it work for a new audience.

Search terms do not always have a direct equivalent, and cultural references may need adapting. Effective website translation requires understanding the intended audience.

Every translator we work with translates only into their native language. Tell us who your website needs to reach, and we’ll provide a personalised quote.

Accuracy alone does not make a transcript right for the job.

Coding and analysis need something different from a court proceeding or published report. That is why our first question is: what will the transcript be used for?

The answer shapes the brief, including the level of detail, formatting and confidentiality requirements.

Our blog explains the 10 questions that affect the finished transcript.

Research recordings often contain confidential information. Clients need to know that every file will be handled according to recognised professional standards.

McGowan Transcriptions is a member of the Market Research Society and the Association for Qualitative Research. We follow the MRS Code of Conduct and AQR guidance on every research project.

Those standards are part of how we work from the moment a recording reaches us.

Conference call audio varies from one person to the next. One caller may be somewhere noisy while another keeps cutting out.

Following the conversation when sound quality changes takes experience. McGowan Transcriptions’ UK-based transcribers use context to make sense of uneven audio and keep track of the discussion.

Difficult audio needs careful listening, not guesswork.

As part of our evaluation of AI transcription, we checked 15 interview transcripts against the original audio.

Only two were cheaper to correct than to transcribe again. The others contained missing sections, incorrect speaker identification or faulty timestamps. Transcribing all 15 from scratch would have cost roughly £500 plus VAT less.

If you have an AI transcript, we’ll tell you honestly which option costs less.

Your video may contain exactly the answer someone is searching for. If those words exist only in the recording, they are harder to discover.

A transcript gives search engines more information to index. It also provides a version visitors can scan and another way into the material for people who cannot easily access audio.

Producing a transcript people can rely on takes sustained concentration - and proper time away from it.

Looking after our experienced transcription team is part of maintaining the quality and reliability of our work. That means making sure people are supported and able to switch off at the end of the day.
