Swahili user interviews and usability sessions, transcribed properly

Swahili (Kiswahili): The strongest sub-Saharan language in Whisper's training mix. Kenyan and Tanzanian accents both transcribe; Sheng (Nairobi slang) mixing needs review.

User research sessions in particular: Verbatim quotes with timestamps drop straight into affinity maps and highlight reels. Tagged quotes, research repositories and evidence your stakeholders can search.
