Interview transcription
Every quote,
timestamped and attributed.
For journalists, researchers and recruiters: record in person or import the file, get labeled dialogue with word-level timestamps, and search the whole archive later. Your sources’ voices are transcribed on your device and never sent to us.
One purchase covers Mac, iPhone, iPhone Duo, iPad & Apple Watch.
How it works
Three steps, no upload.
- 1
Record or import
Record on iPhone, Mac or Apple Watch, or import audio from any recorder. Long interviews are fine.
- 2
Get labeled dialogue
Speakers are told apart automatically. Name them once and the labels stay correct in every future conversation.
- 3
Quote and cite
Tap any line to hear it in context, then export to DOCX, Markdown or SRT, or ask the AI to pull the key quotes.
Features
Made for people who quote other people.
Verbatim, with timestamps
Every word carries its position in the audio, so a quote can be checked against the recording in one click.
Speaker recognition
Interviewer and interviewee are separated automatically. Recurring subjects are recognized across sessions.
Ask the interview
“Where did she talk about funding?” The AI answers with citations that jump straight to the moment.
28 languages, 90+ with Whisper
Interviews in another language transcribe too: 28 languages on every device, and 90+ with the optional Whisper model on a Mac, or an iPhone or iPad with 8 GB of memory, which also detects the language.
A searchable archive
Every transcript is kept on your device (and in your own iCloud if you turn on sync) and indexed, so last year’s interviews are one search away.
Sources stay private
No account, and no transcription vendor ever hears the recording. Delete the app and the library on that device is gone.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
Can it separate the interviewer from the interviewee?
Yes. Speaker recognition labels each voice automatically, and once you name a speaker the name is remembered in future recordings.
How accurate are the timestamps?
Every word is aligned to the audio. Tap a word to play from exactly that moment, which makes checking a quote fast.
Can I transcribe an interview recorded on another device?
Yes. Import MP3, M4A, WAV, FLAC, OGG, WMA or AMR from Files, or share the file from any app on iPhone.
Does anything get uploaded?
No. Speech recognition and speaker recognition run on your Mac or iPhone, and recordings are never sent to us. For summaries you can choose the built-in ThinkScribe AI model, which also runs on the device. There is no account.
