mattA new school year often means new classes, new research projects, and—if you work with recorded interviews, lectures, fieldwork, or other audio and video—a renewed need for transcription tools.
Before you purchase InqScribe 3 at the regular price, it’s worth taking a look at the discounts and purchasing options that may already be available to you.
For Students: InqScribe for $39
Currently enrolled students at accredited schools can purchase a perpetual InqScribe license for $39. That’s a $40 savings off the regular $79 price.
The student discount is limited to one license per student, but that one license can be installed on a laptop and desktop computer, provided they are both used by the same person.
If you’re using InqScribe for coursework, a thesis, dissertation, or another academic project, you can request a student discount coupon before purchasing.
(One restriction: Student discounts are intended to help out students on tight budgets and must be purchased by the student—i.e., not paid for by a department or research lab.)
For Faculty, Staff, and Non-Profits: Save 25%
Faculty and staff at educational institutions, as well as qualifying non-profit organizations, can request an education/non-profit discount coupon that lets you purchase InqScribe at a 25% discount, bringing the price of a perpetual license to $59.25.
And this discount isn’t limited to one-person purchases.
If you’re outfitting a research lab, department, program, or other group, educational and non-profit pricing is also available for quantity purchases. Whether you need a few licenses for a research team or a larger deployment for a computer lab, contact us to discuss the best purchasing option.
Need Five or More Licenses? Ask About Volume Pricing
Organizations purchasing five or more licenses may also qualify for volume or site-license pricing.
Site licenses are commonly used for computer labs and other shared environments, but they can also be a good option for research groups, departments, and organizations that need multiple seats.
We also accept purchase orders for orders of five or more licenses, although credit card and purchasing-card purchases can be completed more quickly and have no minimum order size. Contact us to discuss volume pricing.
Already Own InqScribe? You May Qualify for an Upgrade Discount
If you’re already an InqScribe user, don’t assume you need to pay full price for version 3. Depending on when you purchased your previous license, you may qualify for:
- A free upgrade for licenses purchased on or after January 1, 2025
- 50% off for licenses purchased during 2024
- 20% off for licenses purchased before January 1, 2024
You can enter your existing license information to find out what upgrade pricing is available to you.
One thing worth noting: depending on your circumstances, an education or student discount may actually be a better deal than the standard upgrade discount.
A Few Ways to Pay Less
InqScribe’s regular perpetual license is $79, with no subscription and no per-minute transcription charges. Once you have a valid license, you can transcribe as much audio and video as you need without additional usage fees.
But depending on who you are and how you’re using InqScribe, you may have other options.
So as the new academic year gets underway, take a moment to see whether you qualify for a student, education, non-profit, upgrade, or volume discount before purchasing.
