Email usQuestions from editors
Which events can you cover?
Press conferences, hearings and election-night speeches. If you have another live event in mind, ask us.
Is the brief ready to publish?
No. It is a draft written by AI from the live transcript. Use it to move faster and have an editor check it.
How fast is the transcript?
Key words are flagged about 0.1 s after the audio reaches us, usually before the speaker has finished the word; about one word in ten takes up to 0.8 s. How the audio reaches us adds time on top: a public livestream adds 2 to 5 seconds.
Do we need to install anything?
No. Coverage opens in a web browser.
Where can I see current coverage?
On the live coverage page, with archives of past events.
Can we build our own tools on it?
Yes. The same speech-to-text is available as an API. See Saidwire for developers.
