Visit InterviewCue

InterviewCue is a production companion for interview shows. Prepare questions and private background notes, import a Markdown outline, then use hotkeys to mark highlights, follow-ups, chapters and audio problems during the conversation. Keep using your recording platform and audio editor; InterviewCue organizes the work around them.

The useful distinction is its raw-to-final timeline. Upload your original and edited audio with their transcripts, and the service maps your interview markers onto the finished episode. You can listen around a timestamp and correct it before exporting Markdown, JSON, Audition CSV markers, Resolve EDL, Logic MIDI, PDF or a CUE sheet. Alignment accuracy still needs review against the recording.

Use particular care with Produce. The documented output is a new 128 kbps mono MP3 at 44.1 kHz with metadata, artwork and chapters. That is unsuitable when you need to preserve a stereo mix or the original encoded audio. Export timeline data and finish in your own editor when those requirements matter.

Audio uploads and transcription run on the provider's infrastructure. Its privacy policy says recordings are not sent to third-party transcription APIs or used for model training. It also discloses a Reddit advertising pixel on selected pages. A shared timeline link gives its recipients access to uploaded audio, transcripts and exports, so share deliberately and revoke access when finished.

This listing is based on public documentation and pricing research, not a hands-on recording or export test. InterviewCue has a clear role for interview producers; it should not be mistaken for an all-purpose DAW or a local-only tool.
