Transcription jobs

Transcription overview

You can add text transcription jobs to every machine learning job type. Additionally, you can nest transcription jobs under other job types.

For example, to add transcription in image transcription jobs, select a class, draw a bounding box on the area to be transcribed, and type the text in the transcription area.

Some transcription jobs may impose limits on the allowed input types. For example, allowing only numbers or dates. For details, refer to Customizing project interface.
