Riverside’s speaker detection labels speakers based on separate audio tracks in your recording. Each participant recorded on a separate track is labeled separately in the transcript.
If multiple people use one microphone or you upload a file with a single mixed track, the transcript will not separate speakers. Speaker detection works best when each participant records on their own track.
