Accessible lectures, transcribed interviews and organised departments
Echo transcribes lectures, research interviews and department meetings with each speaker and their timing. It creates subtitles to make material accessible, and each department or research group has its own workspace, with the data on Edorteam’s own servers in the EU.
What it costs today
Interviews transcribed by hand
A thesis or project with dozens of interviews takes weeks just to get them into text.
Material without subtitles
Recorded lectures need to be accessible, and subtitling them takes hours.
Every department doing it differently
Recordings spread across drives and personal accounts, with no idea who can see what.
How Echo helps
Interview-based research
Every interview, with speakers separated and every word at its minute.
- The “Interview” template with verbatim quotes and their time
- Your own template with your study’s categories
- Hide ID numbers, phone numbers, emails and account numbers in the text
- Download as Word, PDF or TXT for your analysis
Accessible lectures
Subtitles with their own editor, live too.
- Industry rules: 2 lines of 42 characters and a comfortable reading speed
- Several languages at once and the video with burned-in subtitles
- “Share live subtitles”: students see them in their language, with no account
- The “Class or training” template with key concepts and review questions
Departments and groups
Team workspaces with everyone’s access set.
- A workspace per department or research group, with roles
- Restricted folders for a project or an examining panel
- Single sign-on (SSO) with the university’s identity provider
- Automatic deletion after the period you decide
A research project
A research group uploads its project interviews to a restricted folder in its workspace. Echo transcribes them with speakers separated and hides the phone numbers and emails mentioned. The researcher analyses each interview with her own template and searches all of them at once for every time a theme comes up.
Before recording interviews or lectures, inform the people involved and follow what your university’s ethics committee or data protection officer requires.
Frequently asked questions
Does Echo transcribe Catalan, Galician or Basque?
Echo transcribes many languages, Catalan among them, and you can choose the language when you upload the recording. Dubbing is only available in Spanish, English, French, Italian and Portuguese.
Can people sign in with their university account?
Yes, with OIDC single sign-on (SSO) on the Team plan.
Where is the interview data stored?
On Edorteam’s own servers in the European Union. Transcription and AI run there, with no third-party AI services, and are never trained on your recordings.
