Startup FAQs
    Learn how easy it is to go digital.

A: There is a small setup fee to get your account, but then you can create other accounts for your employees, clients, and authors, for free, on your own. We charge you for each minute of phone-in dictation by your clients and we also charge you for file uploading through the browser. We have a small monthly minimum charge as well, and only accept credit cards as payment, which we require up-front, and charge for your usage on the first day of each month. Please see our pricing page for the actual fees and more details.

A: MetroScript takes every precaution to ensure the security and integrity of your files and data. During file transfer your files are passed through a state-of-the-art encryption algorithm provided by Secure Socket Layer (SSL) the most secure digital certificate on the market. Once your files are uploaded to our system (through browser or phone-in), they are stored on a RAID fault-tolerant drive based server which sits in a state-of-the-art data center. Additionally, our database is backed up each evening. Please see our security page for more details.

A: No, we are a TASP (Transcription Application Service Provider). Our service is used by transcriptionists and transcription companies, but we ourselves are NOT a transcription company and can not provide any transcription service. In this manner, there is no conflict of interest and you should not be concerned about possibly losing some of your clientele to MetroScript.
