Capital Typing
Description
Capital Typing is a small but legitimate outsourcing company founded in 2002 that hires remote independent contractors for transcription, data entry, customer support, translation, and bookkeeping work. Their clients come from different industries, and the company handles administrative tasks on their behalf using a distributed remote workforce.
The work itself is varied. On any given week, you might be transcribing business meeting recordings, entering data from forms into spreadsheets, or supporting customers via email. That variety is actually one of the things that makes it less monotonous than platforms that only assign one type of repetitive task.
Getting in is so simple. You visit their job posting page, apply for an available position, and go through a basic review process.
There is no elaborate interview or skills test upfront. They review your application and contact you if there is a match. Because they are a small company with 11 to 50 employees, openings are not always available, and like many smaller data entry companies, they hire based on current project demand rather than maintaining a permanent open application pool.
Pay varies depending on the type of work. Transcription work follows a per-audio-minute model similar to platforms like Rev or GoTranscript.
Data entry roles tend to be per piece or hourly depending on the project. Reviews from former contractors on Indeed describe the work as genuinely flexible but note that audio quality on some transcription files can be poor, which slows down output and reduces effective hourly earnings.
One honest thing worth knowing is that this is a small operation. Do not expect the polish and infrastructure of a platform like Rev or a company like Cass Information Systems. Support response times can vary, and work availability depends on what their current client projects require.
Workers who treat it as one income stream among several tend to have a better experience than those expecting consistent full-time volume.
