What this does

Paste a multi-speaker transcript and we label who is talking, Speaker A, Speaker B, or a name if one is obvious from what's said, in front of each line. Any timestamps already in the text stay exactly where they are.

We never hear the audio. Labels are worked out from the words alone, so a fast back-and-forth or a hand-off mid-sentence can get mislabelled. The result says this plainly at the end rather than pretending the split is certain.

Use cases
  1. 01Turn a flat interview transcript into something readable without re-listening to sort out who said what.
  2. 02Prep a panel discussion transcript before you quote a specific speaker.
  3. 03Get a first pass at speaker labels before you check it against the recording.
FAQ

Questions, answered.

Does this listen to the audio to tell voices apart?

No. We never receive the audio. Labels are inferred from the words and the flow of the conversation.

How reliable are the labels?

Good on a clear back-and-forth, weaker on fast interruptions or a hand-off with no verbal cue. Check it against the recording if the speaker matters.

Do I need an account?

Yes. Speaker Labels is a Starter tool.
