Before you start
- You need a moderator or admin account
- The workspace must already exist (ask an admin to create one if needed)
- Have the Kair Voice web app open at
kair.is
Step 1 — Create a session
- Go to your workspace dashboard
- Click New Session
- Give it a title (e.g. “Town Hall — 27 May 2026”)
- Optionally set the planned headcount
- Click Create
Step 2 — Start recording
Click Start Recording. The button turns red and a timer starts. All participants in the room are now being recorded.If someone else is already recording the same session, you’ll see a “Recording in progress — take over?” prompt. Only click take-over if the original recorder has disconnected.
Step 3 — Monitor live transcription
As audio chunks are uploaded (every few seconds), partial transcripts appear in the moderator view in near real-time. These are preliminary — the final transcript (with speaker labels) is produced after you stop recording.Step 4 — Pause / resume (optional)
Click Pause to temporarily halt recording without ending the session. Click Resume to continue. The same session ID is maintained — chunks from before and after the pause are stitched together.Step 5 — Stop recording
Click Stop Recording. The session moves tofinalising state:
- All chunks are stitched into one audio file
- A final transcription job runs on the full audio (with diarisation if enabled)
- Speaker labels (
S1,S2, etc.) are assigned to segments
