The Speech to Knowledge (STK) live recording interface is designed to make capturing knowledge intuitive and efficient. Once you click “Start Recording,” the platform begins listening, transcribing in real-time, and preparing everything you need to turn your voice into usable knowledge.
Let’s break down what you’ll see and how to use it effectively.
Live Recording Layout Overview #
Once a session begins, you’re taken to a minimal, distraction-free interface, divided into key sections:
1. Title Bar #
- Located top-left: “Add title here”
- Click to name your recording session.
- A clear title helps later when exporting, sharing, or finding the STK.
Tip:
Use a specific and recognizable name (e.g., “Sales Training – Q2 Onboarding”).
2. Tabs: #
- Transcription: Shows the real-time transcript, speaker-separated.
- Export: Becomes active after the recording is complete.
- Documents: Contains all export results once generated.
Tabs remain inactive during recording to keep focus on content capture.
3. Live Transcript Panel #
- Every word spoken is converted into text in real-time.
- Speakers are labeled as Speaker_01, Speaker_02, etc. until manually renamed.
- Transcript scrolls as content builds, helping you monitor what’s being captured.
Why It Matters:
You can review accuracy, catch missed phrases, or take quick notes while speaking.

5. Ex.Brain Assistant (Coming Soon) #
- A chat icon labeled “Ask Ex.Brain” appears bottom-right.

6. What Happens When You Click Stop? #
- You’ll be asked to confirm: “Is the session finished?”
- Once confirmed, the session is closed, and processing begins.
- During this phase, your recording is analyzed, diarized, and enhanced for exports.
Best Practices During Recording #
- Speak clearly, especially if multiple speakers are involved.
- Pause naturally between sections to make transcripts more structured.
- Consider stating speaker names at the beginning: “Hi, I’m Alex…” for better diarization.
