Quiet Scribe transcribes interviews on your iPhone, iPad or Mac, separates the speakers and pulls out key quotes and a timeline. The audio stays on your devices, which matters when interviewees share sensitive information.

## Who it's for

Researchers, journalists, recruiters and UX teams who record conversations and need an accurate record to quote from.

## How to transcribe an interview

1. **Record:** Record in person on iPhone or iPad, or on Mac for a video interview with both sides captured.
2. **Mark the highlights:** Use markers for strong answers or follow-up questions while you listen.
3. **Name the speakers:** After transcription, rename Speaker 1 and Speaker 2 once and the names apply to the whole interview.
4. **Quote and export:** Review key quotes, jump to each moment in the audio and export the transcript as PDF or text.

## Why it fits interviews

- **Sensitive material stays local:** Audio never leaves your devices and there's no third-party service.
- **Find the quote fast:** Key quotes and a timeline link straight to the audio.
- **Personal vocabulary:** Add names and technical terms so the transcript gets them right.

> Depending on your jurisdiction you may need the interviewee's consent to record.
