Automatic titles

When you import content, Speechdash generates a short title (about 40 characters max) from the text:

• Strips markdown formatting (no **bold** in titles)
• Capitalizes the first letter
• Uses AI summarization when plain heuristics are not enough

Click the title in the reader header to rename anytime. See Rename document and language.

Language detection

Speechdash detects document language at import using:

• Statistical language detection on the text
• Script and lexicon heuristics for mixed or short samples

The detected code (for example en, fr, ja) is stored on the document and drives segmentation and default STT language.

Wrong language?

Open Rename and change Document language. Speechdash reindexes sentences and clears stale Cloud audio cache for that version.

Listening language vs document language

Document language is what the text is written in. Listening language (voice popover) can differ if you want playback in another supported language.
