Organise personal research reflections by voice
Transcribing hours of interviews shouldn't take months. CHELA accelerates your PhD research with rapid, accurate transcription, multi-speaker diarization, and semantic search to after processing isolate themes across your entire audio dataset.
Turn Talk into TasksStop losing brilliant ideas.
A useful record keeps the details you want to return to: names, decisions, questions and next steps. Chela can process a voice note into organised information that you can review and search. State what matters in the recording, then check the resulting note before using it elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it secure enough for IRB approval?
Yes. We offer strict data privacy controls and encryption, ensuring participant confidentiality is maintained to meet university IRB standards.
Can I upload files from my dedicated voice recorder?
Use the Chela mobile app to review the note, then share only the information you intend to pass on. Check the current sharing and export options on your installed version. This workflow does not assume a desktop dashboard, bulk file import or a direct connection to another app.
How well does it separate interviewer from participant?
Our multi-speaker diarization technology accurately separates voices, making it easy to identify when the subject is speaking versus the researcher.
Do you offer an academic discount?
We offer special pricing for students and university researchers. Please contact our support team with your .edu email address.
