Speaker Diarization

Speaker diarization automatically identifies "who spoke when" in your meetings, making it easy to follow conversations with multiple participants.

What is Speaker Diarization?

Instead of a plain transcript like this:

Hello everyone, thanks for joining. Let me share the quarterly update. That sounds great. I have a question about the budget.

You get a labeled transcript like this:

Speaker 1: Hello everyone, thanks for joining.

Speaker 1: Let me share the quarterly update.

Speaker 2: That sounds great.

Speaker 2: I have a question about the budget.

Editing Speaker Names

After transcription, you can replace generic labels (Speaker 1, Speaker 2) with actual names:

  1. 1Click on any speaker label in the transcript (e.g., "Speaker 1")
  2. 2Type the person's actual name
  3. 3Choose "Apply to all" to update all segments from that speaker

💡 Tip: Speaker names are saved with the transcript. You can also edit them when exporting to include proper attribution.

Tips for Better Speaker Detection

  • Avoid overlapping speech - When multiple people talk at once, speaker detection becomes less accurate
  • Use quality microphones - Better audio quality leads to better speaker separation
  • Speak in turns - Brief pauses between speakers help the AI distinguish voices
  • Similar voices - The AI may occasionally confuse similar-sounding voices; manual correction is easy
