Use case · Interviews
Every quote, attributed.
An interview you can’t transcribe accurately is an interview you can’t use. Get back a transcript where the questions are yours, the answers are theirs, and nothing is lost in between.
Built for people who quote people
Journalists, researchers, podcasters, hiring managers, UX teams — anyone whose work depends on what someone actually said. Record the conversation on your iPhone and transcription happens on its own, returning text where every line is labelled by speaker. Pull quotes with confidence; the attribution is already there.
The interview you can’t re-schedule is safe
Sources give you an hour once. Audio is written to disk as you speak, in checksummed segments — a locked screen, a phone call, or a dying battery can stop the microphone, but it cannot erase what was already said. And your material stays private: audio remains on your device until processed, and is deleted after transcription unless you keep it.
From recording to written piece
Search the transcript for the phrase you remember. Copy the exchange that makes the story. Share the full text to your drafting app. With Recorder Pro, a structured summary highlights the key moments of sessions up to 90 minutes — a fast first pass before your close read.
Frequently asked questions
Are quotes attributed to the right person?
Every line of the transcript carries a speaker label generated from the audio itself, so your questions and the interviewee’s answers stay cleanly separated — essential when you’re quoting someone on the record.
How long can an interview run?
Recorder Pro handles single recordings up to 90 minutes. Longer sessions can simply be split into parts — each comes back as its own labelled transcript.
Can I record an interview from my Apple Watch?
Yes. The watch app records durably on the wrist and syncs to your iPhone for transcription — useful for walking interviews or when a phone on the table feels intrusive.
What about consent?
Always ask before recording an interview. Beyond being law in many places, on-the-record consent protects you and your source — and the visible act of starting a recorder is part of that.
