Speech search for podcast editors
An hour-long conversation. One answer you want for the trailer. Find it by the words you remember—or the subject you were talking about.
For Apple Silicon Macs. Visual search is free. Speech search requires Pro.
Invenio Pro searches spoken content in indexed recordings on your Mac. Podcast and interview editors can look up exact words or related meaning, preview matching moments, and use the source media in their editing workflow.
You heard it during the recording: a sharp explanation, a surprising admission, a story worth returning to. Search a phrase you remember. Open a matching moment and listen around it before choosing where the clip should begin and end.
A new episode brings up a topic an earlier guest covered. Once those recordings are indexed, semantic speech search gives you a way to revisit the subject without remembering the original sentence. Use it to research a follow-up or find candidates for a themed edit.
A good search hit is not automatically a good social clip. Listen to the question, the answer, and any qualification that follows. Decide whether the excerpt stands on its own. Invenio finds the material; you give the audience enough context to understand it.
Add the folders containing your podcast or interview media. Allow speech processing to finish and use Pro for transcript search.
Use a distinctive phrase when you know it. Otherwise, describe the topic and listen to the returned candidates.
Preview the match, bring the source file into your editing app, and set the cut points. Add captions, framing, and any other finishing touches there.
Inside the app
Before you start
Yes. Invenio Pro supports semantic speech search, which finds related meaning in indexed speech. Listen to the result to decide whether it answers your intended topic.
No. You can search by meaning. If you do remember a distinctive phrase, exact-word search is another way to locate it.
No. Use Invenio to find and preview source material, then trim, caption, and format the excerpt in your editing application.
Search depends on the indexed recording and its transcription. Background noise, overlapping speakers, and unclear speech can affect matches. Always check the audio before using a quote.
