What is Trint?
Trint turns recorded or live audio and video into searchable transcripts, so journalists, producers, and other media teams can find quotes without replaying entire recordings. Its AI can summarize transcripts and suggest useful moments, while speaker labels and time codes help people check where a quote came from. Teams can then edit the transcript and shape selected quotes into content.
Trint’s suggested highlights include time codes that point back to the footage, and they stay marked as unverified until a person reviews them. That gives editors a clear way to find promising quotes while keeping human review visible.
It is best suited to teams that regularly turn interviews, broadcasts, or other recordings into publishable stories, captions, or rough cuts. The editorial workflow is more specialized than a basic speech-to-text tool, and live transcripts cannot currently be opened in Story Builder.
