Arc’s initial prototype explored the sampling workflow using one built-in recording and transcript. That workflow now runs in an application that supports separate samples and saves the work done on each one.
Bringing in samples
A recording and its automatic transcript can be imported as a new sample. The transcript editor and reporting tools developed in the prototype are available for working with these samples.
Saving and returning to work
Transcript edits are saved as work progresses. A sample library provides access to saved samples, so an unfinished transcript can be reopened and work continued.
Sample details in the report
Each sample has a details page for the person being sampled, their age, the sampling date, and the task. These details carry through to the report, keeping the context for the recording with its analysis.
