Quicktate.com, subsidiary of 10-year-old iDictate.com, announced this morning the debut of Record-a-Call.net, a new service that enables anyone anywhere to engage in a two person or multi-person phone conversation and have that call automatically recorded and transcribed.

"Numerous meetings, interviews and conference calls take place every day without an efficient tool to document exactly what happened on that call…until now," says Quicktate CEO Lee Dorfman.

After 10 years as head of iDictate, Dorfman knows that there is a demand for such a service. While there are other companies that can record calls, Dorfman knows of no such service that seamlessly and automatically transcribes calls.

A 500 word free trial is currently available, after which time users will be billed at a flat two-cents per word, with no monthly charge, no contract, and no sign up fees. The service is available in English and Spanish.

Currently, users must activate the call from the Record-a-Call.net website; however, in the near future the call may be initiated directly from the telephone. In either case, Dorfman warns, it is always advisable for all parties to acknowledge "on the record" that the call is being recorded. In fact, many states actually require this disclosure. Completed files are transcribed and returned via email, with short transcripts usually returned within just a few minutes.
