Plan interview selects from a transcript
Transcript Selects Planner is an AI agent you set up in the ChatGPT or Claude you already use. Give it an interview transcript and your editorial purpose, and it lists candidate passages with exact quotes, line references and any timestamps you supplied, plus a proposed paper sequence and the checks to make against the recording.

How it works
What it does for you, and what it leaves to you.
Editors working with long interviews need to find useful passages without making every selection and sequence decision at once. Large transcripts and scattered annotations can make material hard to find again.
Interpret a transcript against a stated purpose and make candidates easier to locate. Better editing quality or faster production has not been demonstrated for this setup. A printed transcript, markers, a simple selects timeline or the editor’s existing transcript search may be enough. An extra planning pass can add work. Use this assistant for an optional text selection plan, then compare it with your normal method.
You stay in charge. The editor watches or listens to each selected passage and checks the transcript and surrounding context. A person decides consent, fairness, pacing and the final cut in their editing software.
You get
- Candidate selects, a proposed paper sequence and checks to make against the recording
It never
- Rewrite a quote or join fragments into a new statement
- Invent timecodes, durations or an edit decision list
- Drop a caveat or correction to make a claim sound stronger
- Open media tools, change files or claim to have watched the footage
The selects plan it writes
The example above, in words.
Keep L2 with L3 so the attendance observation is not presented as proof that longer hours caused growth. L4 can be a future-plan candidate with a text anchor and missing timing. All candidates require recording review.

Check the first result
Each setup page has a fictional exercise to paste first. A good answer to it meets all of these.
- Quoted words remain exact and are not joined into a new spoken claim.
- L3’s uncertainty stays with the attendance observation.
- L4 receives no invented timecode or duration.
- The result claims no audio, visual or final-edit verification.
- Removing an essential input causes a question or a blocked item, not an invented fact.

Questions people ask
- Does it edit the video?
- No. It works from the transcript only. It never opens media tools, changes files or exports an edit decision list; you make every editing decision in your own software.
- Will it change what people said?
- No. Quotes stay exact and in one piece, kept apart from its own summary. It never joins fragments into a new statement or drops a caveat to make a claim sound stronger.
- What if my transcript has no timestamps?
- It uses speaker and line anchors and marks the timing unverified. It never invents timecodes or durations.
- Which files can I use?
- Paste the transcript into ChatGPT Work. In Claude you can also upload TXT, DOCX or PDF files; save a .vtt or .srt caption file as .txt first. No audio or video is needed.
- Which plan do I need?
- Claude works on any plan, including Free, which allows up to five projects. ChatGPT Work on the web needs Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu.
