The chain

Get the recording out of Slack huddles

Huddle recordings (when enabled) post back into the channel/DM as a clip — download the video/audio from the clip's menu. Clips are per-huddle and easy to lose in scrollback — pull them out promptly.

Transcribe with speakers

Interviewer and subject come back as separate labeled speakers.

Cite by timestamp

Each quote carries the moment it was said — verification is one click.

What you end up with: Publication-grade quotes with timestamps to back them.
