What Live is for
Two ways in: paste a link for an instant TL;DR + fact-check without watching, or capture a running voice live — streams, meetings and calls, debates, lectures, podcasts. If it's playing in a tab, Live can listen to it.
The controls
• TL;DR — instant summary + fact-check + slop score of the pasted link (no watching), or of the transcript you've already captured.
• Embed — embed the video so you can capture and analyze it live.
• Speed (on the embedded video) — play a long video faster to capture it in less time. Pitch is preserved, so transcription stays accurate up to 2× — a 1 hr talk becomes ~30 min of capture at half the cost.
• Source (Microphone / Browser tab audio) — where the audio comes from.
• Slop + facts — what to analyze: slop + fact-checks, fact-checks only, or plain transcript.
• + Speaker — mark that a new person started talking.
• Split speakers — let AI split the merged transcript into separate speaker turns.
• Report — download the transcript, scores, and fact-checks.
• Start / Stop — begin or end a live session.
Capturing audio (no extension needed)
A video or tab (best): source = Browser tab audio → Start → in the picker choose the tab and turn on "Also share tab audio" → Share. Clean audio, works with your Mac muted.
In person: source = Microphone, turn speakers up if a video is playing, then Start.
Zoom / Teams / Meet: join in the browser and share that tab's audio — cleanest. Desktop app or phone: speakerphone on + Microphone.
Speakers — when to press what
• Auto (usually nothing to press): on Browser tab audio, voices are labeled automatically (Speaker 1, Speaker 2…).
• + Speaker: on the mic, where voices aren't separated — tap it each time a new person starts talking.
• Split speakers: if it came out as one block, run this once and AI splits it into speaker turns after the fact.
What the readings mean
• Score — spoken-content slop, live-estimated: vague, templated, substance-free talk scores high. Casual grammar and filler are normal in speech and NOT penalized.
• Flagged — rhetoric patterns as they happen: hyperbole, deflection, engagement bait, empty superlatives.
• Fact check — AI grades claims against known sources, tagged with the speaker; click a claim to jump to that moment. It hides low-value personal claims by default — use Show all / Key claims only in the header to toggle.
Tips
• Slop updates every 3s, facts every 30s
• A green glow on a button means its result is ready
• Stop pauses the video and runs a final fact-check + TL;DR
