The Problem

3-Hour Hearings, One Quote

You need one specific quote from a Senate hearing. You scrub through 3 hours of C-SPAN footage, pausing and rewinding, trying to catch the exact words.

💸

Transcription Services Cost $$$

Professional transcription runs $1-3 per minute. A single 2-hour hearing costs $120-360. That adds up fast on a newsroom budget.

🔇

You Miss Breaking Quotes

A senator says something newsworthy in a subcommittee hearing you weren't watching. By the time you find out, another reporter already has the story.

📋

No Searchable Record

Video isn't searchable. You can't Ctrl+F a YouTube video. If you didn't watch it live, finding a specific moment is a needle-in-a-haystack problem.

The Solution

Auto-Transcribed in Minutes

Every hearing and speech is automatically transcribed by AI within an hour of airing. Full searchable text with timestamps. No manual work.

🎯

Keyword Alerts

Set keywords like "Iran", "Social Security", or a senator's name. Get email and Telegram alerts the moment it's mentioned — with the exact quote and context.

🔍

Search Everything

Search across all transcripts — by topic, speaker, or any phrase. Find the exact quote you need in seconds, not hours.

💰

Starting at $8/mo

Monitor 5 keywords for $8/month — less than the cost of transcribing a single hearing. Browse all public transcripts for free.

How It Works

What Journalists Are Saying

I used to spend my entire morning scrubbing through committee hearing footage looking for quotes. Now I get an alert on my phone within minutes of something being said. It's changed how I cover the Hill.

Capitol Hill Reporter, Washington D.C.

The keyword monitoring is exactly what our government affairs team needed. We track 15 policy terms across every hearing. The alerts give us the exact quote, who said it, and when — ready for our client briefings.

Government Affairs Director, K Street firm

For $8 a month I get instant alerts whenever my topics come up in any congressional hearing. That's less than what I'd pay to transcribe five minutes of audio. It's a no-brainer.
