Using the Live Transcript

As you record, Elevate transcribes the classroom in real time. The transcript is there whenever you want it — and tucked away when you don't.

Following along

The transcript updates live as the lesson unfolds. You can open it to read what's being said, or keep it hidden and focus on the room and your notes. It's your choice, moment to moment.

What gets transcribed

Elevate transcribes the spoken lesson in the language you selected when you started — English or Spanish.

Privacy comes built in

You don't need to worry about student names appearing in your saved report. When you generate a report, student names are automatically removed from the transcript and notes. See Student name scrubbing explained.

If transcription drops

If the live transcript stops updating, your recording and notes keep going. Check the connection indicator and read If your audio or transcription fails for what to do.

Tip: Many evaluators keep the transcript hidden during the lesson and rely on it afterward, when building the report. Find the rhythm that works for you.
