Where Speaker Labels Matter

Interviews and podcasts
Meetings and calls
Research sessions

Questions and answers stay apart, so quotes are attributed to the right person.

Interviews and podcasts

Decisions are tied to the person who made them, and you can export one person’s lines only.

Meetings and calls

Labels renamed to participant codes keep identities out of the exported transcript.

Getting Clean Speaker Labels

What decides how well voices are separated.

Count

Set the real number of speakers

The model splits the audio into exactly the number you choose. Setting three for a two-person call creates a phantom speaker.

Overlap

Crosstalk is the hard part

When two people talk at once, the line goes to one of them. Recordings where people take turns label best.

Similar voices

Check the first minutes

Two similar voices can be swapped at the start. Fix the first lines and rename; the rest usually follows the same pattern.
