Google's research tool for journalists that transcribes audio and video interviews into searchable text alongside documents.
Google Pinpoint is a research tool for journalists, part of Google's Journalist Studio, that helps reporters explore and analyze large collections of documents, audio, and video using Google's search and AI technology. Among its core capabilities, Pinpoint transcribes uploaded audio and video recordings, such as interviews, speeches, hearings, press conferences, and meetings, into searchable text, so spoken content can be searched and cross-referenced alongside other documents in a collection. Beyond transcription, it lets journalists organize and search across large document sets, highlight names and organizations, and check claims with integrated Google Search. It is designed for investigative reporting, fact-checking, and document-heavy research workflows, and it has been used by newsrooms to organize and analyze evidence at scale. Pinpoint is offered through Google's Journalist Studio with substantial cloud storage for uploaded files, and access to certain generative AI features may require applying for early access. Because it converts recorded interviews into searchable transcripts within a research workspace, it is well suited to journalists and researchers who need to manage and query both spoken and written source material in one place. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
