Your entire recording estate. One search box.
Most organizations record everything and can find nothing. Recordings sit locked inside each vendor's proprietary archive, unsearchable and siloed. MetaWitness pulls them all into one normalized model so a single query reaches across every system, every agent and every word ever spoken.
Capability 01
Search every spoken word
Full-text search across transcripts and metadata, with the filters investigators actually use.
- Exact phrase, boolean & fuzzy matching
- Per-channel — "the customer said…"
- Filter by date, agent, queue, disposition
- Saved searches & phrase-rule tagging
- Sort by relevance, hit count or time
Capability 02
Click a hit, hear the moment
Every match carries a word-level timestamp, so a search result seeks the player to the exact instant.
- Word-level timestamps on every transcript
- Click a hit → player jumps to the word
- Keyword hit markers on the waveform
- Dual-channel solo — agent vs. customer
- Variable speed, clip & bookmark
Capability 03
Follow a call across transfers
A call that moved between three agents is one conversation here — not three disconnected files.
- Transfer, hold & conference legs linked
- Sibling segments under one conversation
- Visual call-flow timeline per call
- "Play whole conversation" end to end
- Correlated by each vendor's native call ID
Capability 04
Ingest from any vendor
A pluggable adapter for each platform normalizes wildly different exports into one clean model.
- Deep adapters: Cisco, Calabrio, NICE, Genesys
- 25+ vendors via adapters & generic import
- Decrypts & transcodes proprietary formats
- Guided, validating import wizard
- Idempotent — re-imports never duplicate
Capability 05
Transcribe on your own hardware
Local AI speech-to-text by default, so a full deployment works with zero cloud spend or connectivity.
- Local Whisper engine out of the box
- Per-channel speaker attribution
- Pluggable cloud ASR when you want it
- Use vendor-supplied transcripts if present
- Queued, retried, progress-tracked jobs
Capability 06
QA, compliance & redaction
The governance layer a serious recording archive demands — scoring, privacy and a full audit trail.
- Configurable QA evaluation scorecards
- PCI / pattern-based redaction & blackout
- Retention policies & legal hold
- Sentiment & keyword spotting
- Watermarked, expiring export & share links
How it works
From a pile of recordings to a searchable conversation.
Point MetaWitness at an export — a folder, a .zip, a mounted path or a cloud bucket — and the guided wizard parses the metadata, links the transfer chains, transcribes the audio and lands it all in one searchable, tenant-isolated workspace.
One call. Three agents. One record.
A customer calls support, gets held, is transferred to billing, then conferenced with retention. Most systems leave you four unrelated audio files. MetaWitness links them by the vendor's own conversation ID into a single timeline you can play straight through.
When no correlation key exists, it falls back to a time-and-number heuristic and flags the grouping as inferred — so you always know how confident the link is.
Tenant isolation is a wall, not a filter.
Every customer is a hard isolation boundary enforced at the query layer — recordings, agents and searches for one tenant are simply unreachable from another, not just hidden in the UI.
Role-based access (Admin, Supervisor, Evaluator, Agent, Auditor) is scoped per tenant, and every state-changing action is written to an immutable audit trail.

Vendor coverage
Built for the mixed estate.
Real contact centres rarely run one platform. MetaWitness ships deep, tested adapters for the major systems and a generic importer that takes audio plus a metadata sidecar from anything — so a migration or consolidation never dead-ends on a vendor we haven't met.

Deployment
Yours to run. On your terms.
MetaWitness is built to live inside your perimeter. It deploys on a single Linux host with one command and runs entirely without an internet connection — because recorded calls are some of the most sensitive data an organization holds.
See MetaWitness™ find the moment.
Bring us a phrase and a pile of recordings — in a short demo we'll import them, search a spoken word, seek straight to it, and follow a call across every transfer. That's usually the moment it clicks.
