The cognitive load of transcription can be exhausting, especially for researchers managing multiple projects or dealing with chronic conditions.
Outsourcing this work isn't just practical, it's an act of self-care that allows you to work better on what matters most: your analysis and insights.
This year, we launched our webinar, academic panel, and workshop.
Now we're going deeper. In May, we're launching our 6-part short course to transform your understanding of key philosophical concepts that will reshape your work.

Every project is different, and every researcher is different.
This is why our 6-part short course offers you bespoke advice and access to written Q&As for the duration.

Beyond being a social enterprise prioritising creating work for disabled, chronically ill and neurodivergent professionals, our founder & CEO, @zaranosaur.bsky.social, has a PhD on how marginalised communities can be systemically excluded from knowledge-creation, and what can be done about it.
Did you know that we also offer closed captioning services?
Make your video content more accessible with captions that allow end users to customise their formatting preferences, including size, font, colour, and more.
Screenshot which reads: 2. Was booking with AAT useful to your project, and if so, how? Working with AAT was incredibly useful for my project. I appreciated the level of detail, care and effort that went into the transcription. For example, I am located in the United States, and some of the transcribers accurately named the places that were mentioned in the transcripts-I was quite appreciative and impressed by this. I also received transcripts in a timely manner, which was also appreciated, and incredibly helpful to me as I worked with a team of research assistants for this project.
Our clients say...
"Working with AAT was incredibly useful for my project. I appreciated the level of detail, care and effort that went into the transcription...".
I get that budgets are tight and everyone is busy and tired but truly, sincerely, me and my team are fabulous at what we do and we’ll provide transcripts and captions substantially better than automated options or our competitors.

Right beloveds, I am looking for just FIVE projects needing…
~ transcription support for qualitative data collection (interviews, workshops, memos etc)
~ transcripts for author dictated manuscripts
~ editing support for automated transcripts
~ closed captioning support for videos, vlogs, etc
We know one answer: imperial and colonial polities adopt what Charles Mills called 'epistemologies of ignorance', where what's taken for knowledge are mythological renditions of the past, present and future where colonial pasts never happened, and if they did, they were benevolent and justified

The NVivo-ready transcripts we provide represent more than just data preparation; they're the foundation of rigorous qualitative analysis.
Our standardised templates, built on UK Data Archive guidelines, ensure your transcripts are immediately ready for coding and thematic analysis.
You've seen the webinar and come to the workshop, but you want more help with epistemic injustice, oppression and ignorance and how they might support your research design and delivery.
Good news! We've got a short course for that. Starting 5 May, for just £47. Learn more here 👇
Missed this week's Bring Your Own Project workshop on how social researchers can apply epistemic injustice, oppression and ignorance as conceptual frameworks to their work?

As a disabled-led business committed to social transformation, we've been championing accessible research practices since 2017.
Our specialised approach means that we not only deliver publication-ready transcripts, but we're also another source of support as you complete your research journey.
Heard of the concept of epistemic injustice but not sure what it means, or where to start learning more? Our founder & CEO, Dr Zara Bain, has a webinar on this and related concepts aimed at social researchers that you won't want to miss.

Ever heard of Bixonimania? It's a fictitious disease invented by scientists, that AI chatbots are now telling people is real.

AI doesn't produce new knowledge; it relies on repeating the mistakes we've made in the past.
Why let AI transcripts taint your research process?
If you're short on time, turn to AAT for human thinking and critical transcripts.
You've read, you've planned, you're ready to start interviewing your participants.
But, before you do, take a look at our short free transcription guide. It will give you the technical information to get the most out of your data.
Better transcripts. Better Results. Better Research.
AAT is a social enterprise. Every project creates fairly paid work for our majority disabled, neurodivergent and chronically ill team.
Book with us and support the businesses you want to see in the world.
Unlike AI transcription services that extract value from our planet and people, our human-powered approach respects both environmental sustainability and linguistic diversity.
We never penalise you for recording conditions or speech patterns that reflect the richness of human communication.
Thank you so, so much to everyone who signed up for our workshop on Tuesday.
If you couldn't make it, not to worry -- you should have received a link to the replay this morning!
Love our social media but want a little more detail? Join our mailing list!
We spotlight recent research, interviews with researchers and insightful editorial content pushing the boundaries of inclusive knowledge production.
What makes AAT different is that we understand that transcription isn't just a technical process; it's epistemological.
It shapes the way we produce knowledge and ultimately, how we understand the world.
Book with us for more time and better research.
Join our workshop today!
Using Epistemic Injustice, Oppression & Ignorance as Conceptual Frameworks

You've completed a huge project. You’ve completed the interviews. The data is rich, detailed, and full of potential.
Just one downside, you have a mountain of transcription and not much time.
At AAT, we take on that workload with skill and accuracy, so you can move forward.
If you’re looking to go deeper into accessibility and accommodations in research, this master class is a valuable resource.
And if you want to explore how these issues shape knowledge production itself, our workshop tomorrow builds on these ideas with practical frameworks and discussion.
The transcription process is where your analysis process starts. It's the first step into really understanding what your participants have to teach you.
Get the most out of your transcriptions. Take a look at our free guide.

Come to our workshop! We'll be discussing how frameworks of epistemic injustice, oppression and ignorance can deepen your research project.
Learn, Connect, and Progress as our founder, Dr Zara Bain, provides you with insight and support.
Catch us on the 14th!
This article highlights one thing. Researchers are increasingly expected to do it all: produce knowledge, promote it, and ensure it reaches the right audiences.
Making time precious.
By using our transcription service, you can gain the time you need to make sure your research doesn’t get lost.
