Hi,
I work part time as a PA and I have lots of audio typing experience. I worked previously full time as a typist for a surveyor.
I am looking to boost my income. There are lots of audio typing companies online (I am careful to only go to those who do not want paying or up front fees etc). Can anyone recommend particular companies? I am also going to contact universities and local businesses.
Many thanks

Hi, Take Note is pretty well rated - I've not got to the point of working for them but got through all approval which was a pretty smooth process and there are plenty of reviews of people who use them who have had good experiences. On the flip side, someone say their standards are pretty high but I think that's to be expected from audio typing - accuracy is needed.
I hope that helps a bitLight Bulb Moment ~ September 2015

They have quite a bit of it on People Per Hour. Might be worth a look.0

I've worked for Accuro (medicolegal) and Take Note. Personally I prefer take note, for reasons I won't go into (nothing bad on either company's behalf), I just prefer the work and workload from Take Note.0

I did some transcribing for Appenscribe, which is a part of Appen Butler Hill, although it was very different from the interview and focus group transcribing I'd done in the past as temp work.
They were doing some work for Google Glass, I think, and were trying to determine the accuracy of the AI / automated transription of British voices giving commands.
You had to listen to these utterances, check some information document, and alter them accordingly if the computer system had got it wrong.
