Identifying who said what

Daisy can group a meeting's voices into separate speakers and let you put names to them. The grouping (diarization) runs entirely on your own machine, so no audio leaves your computer.

Group the speakers

If a recording has no speaker labels yet, the Speakers row offers to create them.

1. Open the meeting and select the transcript tab.
2. In the Speakers row, click Diarize speakers.

Daisy clusters the other participants' voices locally and labels them automatically as Person A, Person B, and so on. Once labeled, each speaker appears as a chip in the Speakers row. A chip you have named yourself is shown with a stronger outline so you can tell named speakers from auto-labeled ones.

Name a speaker

1. Click a speaker chip to open the Label speaker dialog.
2. Click Play sample audio to hear a roughly five-second clip of that voice so you can identify it.
3. Enter a Name, and optionally an Email.
4. Click Save.

To remove a name and return the speaker to its automatic label, open the dialog and click Clear label.

Re-diarize

If the grouping looks off, click Re-diarize in the Speakers row. This re-clusters the voices from scratch and resets the automatic labels. Your manual names are kept and re-applied where Daisy can match them.

Good to know

• Diarization works no matter which transcription provider you used. Some cloud providers (such as Deepgram) can pre-label speakers during transcription, but Daisy's local diarization needs no cloud at all.
• Grouping is not perfect. Review the results and correct any chips that were merged or split incorrectly.
