Market Research Transcription and Translation Services
Multilingual Specialists in Global Market Research Transcription, Translation, and Multilingual Interviews of the Highest Quality.
Market Research Transcription
Market research transcription is the systematic conversion of audio and video recordings — including focus groups, in-depth interviews (IDIs), telephone interviews, and ethnographic sessions — into accurate written transcripts. It is one of the most essential steps in qualitative market research, enabling research teams to analyse, code, and report on participant responses with precision.
At Locate Translate, we offer tailored market research transcription solutions and continued support from start to finish. Your recorded data is carefully transcribed by specialist linguists and analysed to your exact specifications. We have the right market research transcription experts for every project — from single IDIs to large-scale multilingual programmes. We will manage your files, assign the right transcriptionists, deliver clean transcripts, and compile results to your format requirements. Your one-stop shop for all your market research transcription needs.

Our Expertise in Market Research Transcription
Quantitative and Qualitative Methods
We deliver well-founded market research transcription solutions by combining the right approach for both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies.
Without accurate transcripts, open-ended data cannot be coded, themed, or reported on effectively. Market research transcription is a complex field that must account for audio quality, speaker identification, verbatim accuracy, and confidentiality. We apply the right method to each project — it all comes down to what you, the client, needs.
Multilingual Qualitative Transcription
Qualitative market research transcription captures the depth of individual and group responses. Focus groups, IDIs, and ethnographic interviews are transcribed by native speakers who understand the nuances of natural spoken language. The sample may be small, but the transcription must be complete and precise. In qualitative market research transcription, capturing tone, hesitation, and verbatim phrasing is essential for reliable analysis.
At Locate Translate, we conduct qualitative market research transcription at a truly global level. We only work with the very best multilingual qualitative transcription specialists. Your recordings and data will always be secure with us. Our transcriptionists not only speak the target language natively but also understand market research conventions, ensuring high-quality multilingual transcription output.
Multilingual Quantitative Transcription
Quantitative market research transcription typically involves large volumes of recorded responses, telephone interviews, or CATI surveys that need to be converted to text at scale. Consistency and speed are critical. All transcription follows a standardised format so that outputs integrate cleanly with your coding and analysis workflow.
At Locate Translate, we handle quantitative market research transcription at volume without compromising on accuracy. We only work with the very best multilingual quantitative transcription specialists. Your project and data will always be secure with us. Our transcriptionists understand the market and its nuances, ensuring reliable high-volume multilingual transcription.
