Transcribing Interviews Fast (Without Losing Context)
A workflow for researchers and teams: prep, upload, iterate, and export clean text.

Interviews are where transcripts become work products. The trick is maintaining context: who said what, why it matters, and where to find it again.

1) Name the Recording for Retrieval

  • Use a consistent title format, e.g. “Client X — Discovery Call — 2026-02-10”.
  • Add short notes in the description: speakers, setting, topic, and any jargon.

2) Upload and Choose Language Per File

If your project contains multiple languages, set the right language per upload. This improves accuracy and reduces cleanup.

3) Export and Share

  • Export your transcript to a text file for analysis and annotation.
  • Keep a single source of truth in your repo or research folder.
If it’s hard to find later, it might as well not exist. Title + short notes is the cheapest “search system” you’ll ever build.
