Interviews stay under your control

Offline Interview Transcription for Journalists and Researchers

Interviews often contain unpublished reporting, personal testimony or confidential research. A local workflow reduces the number of services that ever receive the source recording.

From interview audio to readable dialogue

SonWeave can separate interviewer and interviewee turns, assign distinct colors and let you replace generic labels with names. Timing remains connected to the source so quotations can be checked quickly.

  • Offline speaker turns
  • Searchable timestamps
  • Rename speakers
  • TXT, PDF, Word, SRT and VTT export

Ask the transcript

Use transcript chat on compatible devices to locate a claim, find where a topic first appeared or identify unanswered questions. AI output can be wrong, so consequential quotations and facts should always be checked against the audio.

Privacy by architecture

SonWeave does not operate its own transcription backend or require an account. Optional iCloud Sync and deliberate exports remain choices controlled by the user.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can SonWeave distinguish two interview speakers?

It can separate speaker turns locally when diarization is enabled, although difficult audio can still produce errors.

Can I transcribe a video interview?

Yes. SonWeave can import supported video and transcribe its audio track.

Are recordings uploaded to SonWeave?

No SonWeave transcription server is used. Upload occurs only through user-selected features such as iCloud Sync or external sharing.
