Remote transcription jobs for AI speech projects
Speech recognition models learn from audio paired with accurate transcripts. Transcribers listen to recordings and write exactly what was said, following the project's rules for punctuation, filler words, overlapping speech and noise. One6 matches transcribers to AI speech projects in their native languages.

Frequently asked questions
Is AI transcription different from general transcription work?
The core skill is the same, but AI projects usually have strict rules for how to mark filler words, false starts, overlapping speech and background noise, because the transcript is training data rather than a readable document.
Is the work remote?
Yes. One6 contributors work remotely, from wherever they are.
How much does it pay?
Compensation depends on the project. Before you start any project you receive its instructions and terms, including the tasks, how work is reviewed and how it is paid, and you are free to decline.
Does applying guarantee work?
No. Contributors are selected for each project based on its requirements, such as languages, domain and experience. We contact you when a project matches your profile.
