Build your audio transcription app.

How to build your audio transcription app

1. 1

   Describe the job

   Build a transcription app that connects audio sources, speaker notes and corrected text.

2. 2

   Review the first version

   Choose how the transcript editor records the audio reference and how the recording owner reviews the next step.

3. 3

   Refine the views

   Ask First to adjust the fields and views for the people who will use the app.

4. 4

   Test before sharing

   Walk through the process with a sample record and check who owns the next action.

What to include in your audio transcription app

• Keep the audio reference in context

  Keep audio reference, permission, job, transcript version, speaker note and export together so the next person can understand the request or record.

• When the next step needs a decision

  A transcript attributes a sentence to the wrong speaker. Preserve the original recording reference and let a reviewer correct the attribution before export.

• Keep export visible

  Preserve the recording reference when the reviewer corrects the speaker attribution.

• Choose what each person needs

  Give the transcript editor a working view and the recording owner a review view. Keep audio reference and permission attached to the decision as the work moves between them.
