Transcriptionist vs Voice & Speech Data: which pays more?
The median for Transcriptionist is $24.23/hr per year (typically $22.62/hr–$24.23/hr), versus $35.50/hr for Voice & Speech Data ($20.00/hr–$35.50/hr). That puts Voice & Speech Data about 47% ahead at the median.
Both figures are computed live from active listings on JobsRadar and normalized to annualized USD, so Transcriptionist and Voice & Speech Data are compared on equal terms regardless of the currency each role was originally posted in. Only roles that publish a salary range feed the medians; numbers refresh every few hours as new roles post and older ones close, so this comparison reflects the market right now rather than a fixed survey. Use it as a directional benchmark when weighing one path against the other.
