Senior Verbatim Transcription Reviewer - EN (Remote & Freelance)

About TrustScale

TrustScale puts the trust in AI.

Our human intelligence teams support annotation, verification, review, and adjudication workflows where careful human judgment and accuracy matter.

We are looking for experienced verbatim transcription professionals who are exceptionally strong listeners and comfortable working with challenging US English audio at the word level.

What This Role Is

We are currently building a team for an English transcription project focused on producing highly accurate transcripts from audio content.

This is not traditional captioning or clean-read transcription. You will work with audio that has already been automatically segmented at the word level. Each segment includes a proposed word, start time, and end time.

Your job is to listen carefully to the complete audio and determine whether those segments are correct.

You will:

• Verify the start and end boundary of each spoken word

• Correct boundaries that begin too early or end too late

• Verify that the text matches what was actually spoken

• Correct transcription errors

• Split a segment when it incorrectly contains multiple words

• Merge or remove segments when necessary

• Identify missing word segments

• Apply spoken-form transcription conventions consistently

• Review the entire assigned audio file rather than performing a partial review

• Use careful listening and judgment when boundaries are difficult to distinguish in continuous speech

Accuracy and consistency are more important than speed.

What We Are Looking For

This opportunity is particularly suited to experienced transcription professionals, including candidates with previous experience as:

• Transcriptionists

• Strong typing skills and attention to detail.

• The ability to consistently deliver accurate, high-quality work.
• Strong quality-control and error-identification skills.
• Reliable availability throughout the project.

Previous experience in transcription review, QA, QC, or adjudication is highly valued, as successful contributors may have the opportunity to progress to higher-level review/adjudication responsibilities based on performance.
