How a story goes from a voice note in the field to an editable draft in your publication.
How do I capture a story?
Open Capture, tap the microphone and talk through what you're seeing. Add photos or video from your camera, or type notes instead. Suru transcribes the audio, keeps your location, and assembles a draft news story you can edit line by line.
How long can a recording be?
Long-form recordings are supported — voice notes upload straight to storage, up to 300 MB per file. If a recording fails to upload, check your connection and try again; the file is kept until the upload finishes.
What does “Extend draft” do?
It adds new material to an existing draft rather than replacing it. Record or upload more audio, then choose Extend draft — Suru merges the new transcript with what's already there and redrafts around it.
Can I edit what Suru drafts?
Always. Headline, subheadline, dateline and body are fully editable. The draft is a starting point, never the final word.
Can I publish in more than one language?
Yes. Record in Italian, say, and Suru can draft in the original language and produce an English translation alongside it. Readers get a language switcher on the story.
Which file types can I use?
Audio, photos and video. Video is transcribed automatically and hosted by Suru — no YouTube dependency.
