Search

Search uses transcript-first content as soon as core processing is ready. For recordings with active visual evidence it also searches scenes and on-screen text, while the core index stays intact.

What is searched

Four kinds of content, one box.

Results come back as moments, each linking to the second it happened.

Transcripts

Everything spoken across your recordings, matched on both wording and meaning.

Findings

Extracted bugs, requirements, decisions, action items, risks, questions, and insights, including their evidence quotes.

On-screen text

Words that appeared on screen - error messages, form labels, dashboard values - after that recording has a verified active visual-evidence generation.

Documents

Your PDFs, Word files, and Markdown, returned with the page the passage came from.

Global search results across recordings and documents
One search across recordings, transcripts, documents, and findings. Each result says where it came from, so you can go straight to it.
Getting good results

Search or ask?

  • Search when you know the words

    An error string, a feature name, a clause number. Search is instant and shows you every place it appears.

  • Ask when you have a question

    Evidence Q&A composes an answer from several passages and cites them. It costs a question from your monthly allowance; search does not.

  • Results agree with each other

    When visual evidence is active, a moment supported by more than one kind of evidence - said and shown, for instance - can be ranked higher because agreement across modes is a strong signal.

  • Open the moment

    Every result links into the recording at its timestamp or the document at its page. Reading the surrounding context is the point.

Search covers what has finished indexing. A recording still processing will not appear until its final stage completes - see upload a recording.

Ask instead of search when you want a conclusion rather than a list. The answer still carries the evidence it was drawn from.
Common questions

Search, answered.

  • No. Search is free and unlimited. Evidence Q&A questions are metered because they compose an answer; searching is not.
  • Transcript and transcript-artifact search appears when core processing is ready. On-screen search appears only after optional visual evidence verifies and activates.
  • Ask the project instead - project-scoped questions answer from everything filed in it. Global search covers the whole workspace.
  • Yes, once they have been read visually during processing. The text found on those pages is searchable like any other.
