Interview Release and Transcript Review Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

A piece is almost ready to publish when someone asks whether the second interviewee ever signed a release. This agent starts with the draft cut and the list of interviews. It matches each person on screen or in audio with a signed release and checks that the release covers the use, such as web, broadcast and the dates. Then it compares every quote in the draft with the full transcript, checks the speaker name and looks for changes in meaning, such as a dropped negative or a joined pair of sentences. It reports each problem. For quotes that changed meaning or releases that are missing, it drafts a review request to the subject. After replies arrive, it checks again. The producer approves the release of the piece. Edge case: the release is signed but expired, so it counts as missing.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

A release is valid only if it is signed, names the person and covers the planned use and dates. A quote is accurate if the words and meaning match the transcript.

  • Treat an expired or unsigned release as missing
  • Flag any edit that removes a negation, a condition or a date
  • Flag a quote built from two separate answers
  • Block final approval while any release is missing

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Release terms that must be covered (web, broadcast, social)
  • Which edits count as a change in meaning
  • Reminder wait time (default 3 days)
  • Where releases are stored
  • Quote accuracy level for flagging (strict or loose)

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Producer approves each message to an interview subject
  • Producer approves release of the piece

Hard limits

  • Never send a message to a subject without approval
  • Never change a quote to fit the cut

It stops when

  • Done: all releases valid and all quotes confirmed
  • Stop: a subject refuses and the quote must be cut

An example run

What happensA 12-minute piece has 5 interviewees. The agent finds four valid releases and one release that expired in March. It also finds that a quote from Maria drops the word not from the original sentence. It drafts two messages. The producer approves them. The signed renewal arrives, but the quote reply is still missing, so the agent sends a reminder draft and holds approval for that quote.
