Air automatically generates transcripts for your video assets to help you search, navigate, and review your video content. When automated transcription or speaker detection contains discrepancies, you can correct specific words or phrases directly in the transcript panel to ensure complete accuracy.

  1. Open the video asset you want to view by clicking on its title from your board or search results. This launches the asset detail viewer.

  2. To view the automated transcript of the video, click the Show transcript button located in the top-left corner of the asset viewer.
