Create markers during an interview session

Markers let you keep track of important moments that occur during an interview session. Whether you want to remember a key quote said by your participant or want to keep tabs on topics of conversation, markers let you create easy points of reference to come back to during analysis.

Session moderators and observers can create markers. When viewing markers, you’ll be able to see who created them.
