The interview is over. Replaying hours of audio should not be the next research job. Handle long-form recordings with an upload-first workflow, then turn transcripts into structured research notes, summaries, or quote-ready outputs.
Upload-first research workflow
Bring in the recording first, keep the transcript intact, then organize the material into themes, summaries, and quote-friendly notes from the same workspace.
Upload-first
Best for recorded interviews, multi-hour lectures, and research sessions you already captured elsewhere.
Record-first
Useful when you are conducting the interview live and want the transcript ready inside Sondeas as soon as you stop.
Organize next
Move into summaries, quote extraction, theme grouping, or translation after the transcript is in place.
