Custom Insights and Categories

Custom Categories & Insights

InΒ Speak, you can now create your own custom insights and categories πŸŽ‰πŸ€―

What Does This Mean?

The system becomes yours. Any keyword or phrase that you want to find and analyze. Any category that you want to create.

Speak will automatically find and display it for you for an entirely new understanding of yourself and your media.

Our users and our team have been waiting for this moment for so long.

It is still hard to fully articulate the potential of this.

I’ve done my best to show just an overview in this video. What a great way to start the week.

In this example, I created the categories “Fundraising” and “Sales”.

Fundraising & Sales

For Fundraising, I included terms like “invest”, “pitch deck” and “model”.

For Sales, I included terms like “benefits”, “solution”, and “customer”.

Speak Ai will then find every instance of those words and phrases across your media!

Custom Media Insights

You can see how many times they appear and click on the buttons to jump to those exact moments. Navigate through hours of audio and video and thousands of words in seconds.

We can’t wait to see what you in theΒ Speak communityΒ are going to do with this new ability.
