Export & data portability

On this page

Transcripts leave dembrane as Markdown files and audio as MP3. Anyone who can read a project’s conversations can download them.

What you can download

What	Where	What you get
All transcripts of a project	“Manage”, then “Export”, then “Download all transcripts”	A zip file named after the project, with one Markdown file per conversation
One transcript	The conversation page, “Download transcript”. You can give it a “Custom filename”	One Markdown file
One transcript or summary as text	The copy icon on the transcript, or “Copy summary”	Text on your clipboard
The audio of one conversation	“Download audio” on the conversation page or its row	One MP3 file of the whole conversation
The QR code	“Download QR code” on the project’s “Overview”	A PNG file
The host guide	“Download event printouts”	Your browser’s print dialog, where you can save as PDF

Good to know:

The zip leaves out conversations that have no transcript text.
Each file in the zip is named with the date and time, the participant’s name and the start of the conversation’s ID, so the files sort by time.
“Download audio” is not available for anonymised or text-only conversations.

No CSV or Excel export of conversations.
No PDF download of a transcript.
No button to download everything tied to your own account. For that, or to have personal data erased, ask dembrane.

Reports have their own ways of sharing. See reports.

Webhooks, “Automation” in the product, send a message to your own system when something happens in a project. The message for a summarised conversation carries the transcript and the summary.
MCP lets an assistant such as Claude or ChatGPT read the conversations and transcripts you can see.

Developers find the technical side on export and integrations.
