Text Data Entry Assistant

I have a steady stream of scanned documents that need their text accurately entered into the templates I provide. Most of the work is straightforward data entry, though I’ll occasionally ask you to copy-paste content between files, re-type short passages, or tidy up basic formatting so everything looks clean and consistent.

Here’s what a typical day looks like: you’ll open the scanned PDF or image, capture the text exactly as shown, paste it into the designated Google Sheet or Word file, double-check for typos or missing lines, and mark the file complete. Accuracy is more important than speed; I’ll spot-check your work, so any obvious transcription errors will need to be corrected before moving on.

Tools are simple—Google Docs, Sheets, and whichever PDF viewer you prefer. If you already use OCR software, that’s fine, but the final text must still be reviewed manually to match the source.

Turnaround times will vary, but you’ll always get clear deadlines and step-by-step instructions up front. As long as you stay responsive, meet the agreed due dates, and keep error rates low, the collaboration will be smooth and ongoing.
