  • How much does this service cost?
    Each project is unique; therefore, AcuLog requests that each customer complete a quote request form. Our team will review the inquiry notes and if needed, discuss information with the customer by email or phone prior to preparing a quote. Transcription quotes are based on number of lines (flight entries) to be entered and the complexity of the project. We take into consideration the amount of data per line and any other project variances that may make our data entry portion quicker and adjust pricing accordingly. Logbook transcription is labor and time intensive. Transcription Services: Project Fee, which includes the paper logbook audit, averages between $175-$250, but can max out at $325 for large projects. Cost per line/entry ranges from $0.34, down to $0.21 (based on volume/complexity) **AcuLog has a minimum cost of $275 for transcription services Digital Logbook Audit (Pre-Interview): Flat Project Fee - average cost ranges between $250 and $375, but cost could increase for very large (high total time) projects (based on size/complexity) Digital Logbook Import Service: LogTen: No additional cost for LogTen customers. We send all projects to LogTen's team to import for the customer ForeFlight, Safelog, MyFlightbook, ZuluLog, and others: there is a $75 fee for this service; this is an optional service Custom Projects : Flat Project Rates - contact us for custom quote Hourly Rates - contact us for custom quote Expedited Service: 40% up to 100% (subject to customer's timeline needs) calculated and added to the total project cost (not applied against Zoom sessions). Expedited service is on a need-basis and we can not guarantee to offer this service to each customer that requests it. Zoom Logbook Review Sessions: AcuLog offers additional hands-on assistance with customers who request it. Zoom sessions are billed at $100 per hour. There is a 1-hour minimum charge, and then we bill in 15-minute increments thereafter. Zoom session fees are added to the customer's final invoice. Late Fees: AcuLog reserves the right to apply a 20% late fee to any final invoice that is >14 days overdue. (2024 Pricing)
  • How do I send my paper logbooks to AcuLog?
    Don’t mail your valuable logbooks! We request that all standard logbooks be scanned digitally or photographed. We recommend your phone/tablet camera or using a mobile scanning app to combine all images chronologically into a single PDF file; one PDF file is required per logbook. We do not accept individual images. The left and right side of each page should be in the same image frame, as shown below. Mobile Scanner App Recommendations: CamScanner (found on iOS​ App Store or Play Store) Genius Scan (found on iOS​ App Store or Play Store) Apple's Notes app AcuLog accepts other file types for non-standard flight logs/custom projects, like PDF, Excel, .csv, .txt, Word, etc., but those formats should be discussed with AcuLog during the quoting process. In some cases, we do request samples files before quoting. After a quote has been accepted, customers can upload their files directly to our team here: https://www.aculogconversion.com/uploadfiles (additional instructions are included in each quote) * Note: AcuLog will not accept a shipment of original logbooks of any kind.
  • What data do you transcribe?
    AcuLog will transcribe all data required for import, with the exception of remarks, endorsements, and approach types (we do capture quantity of approaches). If a customer requests or simply has less data than a standard logbook or flight log provides, our cost per line will be adjusted accordingly. Know that any data can be changed or added to an e-file by the customer at any point after transcription is complete.
  • How long does the average conversion project take?
    Current project timelines are always listed on the front page of our website and are updated weekly. If AcuLog is inundated with requests and projects, on occasion, we may make the tough decision to turn off quoting for transcription services temporarily while we work to complete active projects. Timelines quoted for each project are subject to the amount of data, the complexity of the project, the customer's timeline, and other project variances, but most importantly, AcuLog's active customer project queue. The project start-time begins once a quote has been approved, deposit has been paid, and all logbook image files are uploaded to our team.
  • How to pay for services
    Once a quote is approved, an invoice will be sent by email requesting a 50% deposit to start the project. Customers can pay with any major debit/credit card right from the invoice link online. Final payment is due upon project completion after all data has been approved by the customer and an accurate line count has been confirmed for any potential adjustment. Late Fee: AcuLog reserves the right to apply a 20% late fee to any final invoice that is >14 days overdue.
