Abstract
A semi-automated, intermodal transcription-formatted data input system utilizing one or more interconnected servers which receive communications links. The system identifies and validates a user, and receives, accepts and sends voice files to a distributed processing location where operators are assigned transcription tasks. The voice input from the user is transcribed according to a predefined format for that user which takes voice input information provided and transcribes it into user-defined data fields for retransmission to that user over a preferred communications system. A user may dictate predefined formatted information such as appointments, objective checklists such as a to-do list, contact information or other predefined data formats for processing and retransmission to the same user or other defined users for entry in an operating system or application desired by that user. Retransmission may be over conventional voice lines, internet or wireless internet or wireless data devices such as disclosed in the preferred embodiment.
