Do you handle southern and central accents?

Yes — northern, central and southern accents need no declaring; the engine mix follows what we hear.

What about code-switching into English or local terms?

Mixed-in English and local terms are transcribed as heard; anything the engines aren't sure about is flagged for you to confirm or replace.

How fast, and how is it billed?

An hour of audio is usually ready within 30 minutes; Transcribe Cloud is $6.00 an hour in all 27 languages (or subscribe to a monthly plan), prorated to the second, rate locked at upload, failed jobs never billed.

What makes it hard

What makes Vietnamese hard.

Six tones, north and south

The tone system itself differs north to south — disagreements get flagged.

Monosyllable boundaries

Everything is monosyllables; boundaries come from context. The engine mix follows the accent we hear.

Names and places

Names ride on kin terms (anh/chị/cô) — verified against the web, or flagged.
