[00:00:00] Speaker 1: I've got years of interviews, recordings, meetings saved on my laptop because I think yeah, I'm definitely going to come back to that. And the truth is I never did. Whereas now I can actually search through the content I've already recorded. I can ask the AI, what did the podcast say about the pricing? And instead of making me listen to the entire thing again, it finds the relevant information. That's when I started realising this isn't about transcription, it's about making everything I've recorded useful again.

AI-powered search now lets them query recorded content directly—such as finding discussion of pricing in a podcast—without replaying everything. This shifted their view of transcription from simple text conversion to a way to make archived recordings useful and accessible again.
