1. What is your accuracy rate?
Speech Recognition Accuracy is often the most pertinent quality to look for when selecting a captioning vendor. A lot of people may be familiar with YouTube's "automatic captions," which use automatic speech recognition alone to create captions for YouTube videos: this is an example of a well-intentioned initiative that has produced some hilariously inaccurate captions. Typically, automatic speech recognition produces about 60-70% accuracy, which means that 1 out of 3 words are wrong - and when speech recognition is wrong, it's usually spectacularly wrong.
