Informazioni sul ruolo
Babel Audio è alla ricerca di trascrittori attenti ai dettagli per aiutare a convertire registrazioni audio in testi accurati e strutturati. Gli audio su cui lavorerai includono conversazioni naturali e discorsi scriptati su una vasta gamma di argomenti, parlanti e condizioni acustiche.
Questo ruolo richiede un orecchio allenato e grande attenzione a tutto ciò che accade in una registrazione, non solo alle parole pronunciate. Il nostro standard di trascrizione cattura tutta la ricchezza della comunicazione umana e ti verrà chiesto di taggare ciò che senti, comprese parole, rumori e suoni non verbali.
Lavorerai seguendo linee guida chiare e materiali di riferimento che definiscono come utilizzare ogni tipo di tag. Precisione, coerenza e attenzione ai dettagli sono i requisiti fondamentali di questo ruolo.
Chi sei - Padronanza dell’italiano a livello madrelingua - Ottime capacità di ascolto, con abilità nel comprendere parlato sovrapposto, accenti diversi e qualità di registrazione variabili - Capacità di applicare linee guida di annotazione strutturate, incluse convenzioni di tagging che vanno oltre la semplice annotazione testuale. - Metodo di lavoro preciso e coerente, capace di applicare uno stile definito per molte ore di audio - Esperienza in trascrizione, sottotitolazione, captioning o ambiti correlati (preferibile ma non obbligatoria)
Compenso - up to $110 USD per ogni ora audio trascritta - Potrebbero essere disponibili incentivi aggiuntivi basati sulle performance
Requisiti tecnici - Computer affidabile e connessione internet stabile - Si consiglia l’uso di cuffie o auricolari per una revisione accurata dell’audio - Ambiente tranquillo per un ascolto concentrato
La tariffa si applica al tempo audio trascritto per questo specifico progetto. Le candidature potranno essere considerate anche per altri progetti Babel Audio, che potrebbero prevedere tariffe differenti. Consulta i nostri Termini di Utilizzo e la Privacy Policy per tutti i dettagli.

About the Role
Babel Audio is seeking detail-oriented transcribers to help convert audio recordings into accurate, structured text. The audio you will work with includes natural conversations and scripted speech across a wide range of topics, speakers, and acoustic conditions.
This role requires a trained ear and careful attention to everything happening in a recording, not just the words being said. Our transcription standard captures the full richness of human communication, and you will be asked to label audio that you hear, including words, noises, and non-speech audio.
You will work from clear guidelines and reference materials that define how each tag type should be used. Accuracy, consistency, and attention to detail are the core requirements of this role.
Who You Are - Native-level fluency in Italian - Strong listening skills with the ability to parse overlapping speech, accented speakers, and varied recording quality - Comfortable working with structured annotation guidelines, including tagging conventions beyond plain text - Methodical and consistent, able to apply a defined style across many hours of audio - Experienced in transcription, captioning, subtitling, or a related field (preferred but not required)
Compensation - up to $110 USD / audio hour transcribed - Additional performance-based incentives may be available
Technical Requirements - A reliable computer and stable internet connection - Headphones or earphones recommended for accurate audio review - A quiet environment for focused listening
Rate applies to audio time transcribed for this specific project. Applications may also be considered for other Babel Audio projects, which may carry different rates. Please review our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy for full details.
