How to use
  • Standardize speaker labels first (INTERVIEWER/CANDIDATE).
  • Add key moments while reviewing; don’t trust summaries blindly.
  • Redact sensitive details before sharing.
Common mistakes
  • Losing who said what (diarization errors).
  • Missing names/companies (kills debrief accuracy).
  • No timestamps or anchors (impossible to verify claims).
AI note‑taker fit
  • Recruiting transcripts are name-heavy — validate the Names test.
  • Overlap can misattribute quotes; treat overlap as high risk.
  • Use upload-only workflows if bots aren’t allowed.
