Lots of questions
I have lots of questions about pricing, how accounts works, etc. that I need answered before I can get my school to “buy in” to Mote. I can’t find information on a phone number or email to set up a meeting. How do I get a hold of a person to get my questions answered?

Feedback with Translation
I use Mote for student feedback, but I don’t require my students to have the extension installed because they don’t all use Chrome, and because my ESL students find it less stressful to respond to me by writing than by speaking. As well, if it doesn’t happen during class time, it doesn’t happen at all, and they can’t all be speaking to their computers at the same time in the classroom. All that to say, I use the speech-to-text function when recording feedback for ESL students. When I click the translate button, it gives me a button to hear the text read aloud in a different language, but when the students are viewing my feedback, they don’t get that button to hear it translated. This is a bit unintuitive, as I expect when the button appears on my end, that it will appear on theirs, as well. Could it be possible to have the button appear on their end when I have chosen to translate my speech-to-text? Funnily enough, it does appear at the top of the page for a millisecond while the page is loading, but then it disappears.

Censoring maybe a little too zealous?
As a band teacher, the term “fingering” comes up very frequently in my recordings and transcriptions! I definitely understand the caution with that one, but I wonder if it’s a decision that could be revisited?

HELP!! I can't see MY CLASSES in the sidebar.
I’m a middle school teacher, and I can’t figure out why the “my classes” feature is not visible to me! When I go to https://www.mote.com/my-classes, it redirects me back to the dashboard. I guess Mote thinks I am a student, because I can’t access it. But even after purchasing the Unlimited license, it still won’t give me access to classes. What am I missing or doing wrong? I’ve attached a picture of what my sidebar looks like. I’ve seen what it’s supposed to look like, and something is wrong with mine. Please help!

Text to Speech Function
It seems that you have removed the “text to speech” function in Google Forms with the release of your new MOTE features that show up in the sidebar. PLEASE do not remove a great tool just because you are adding another great tool. The text to speech function is much easier to use in Google Forms for students with reading disabilities. The new tool is just adding steps that were previously unnecessary.

Text-to-Speech - help fixing mispronunciations
It would be great if we could record our voice to help fix and identify mispronunciation on the text-to-speech feature. I’ve had “resume” mispronounced, because I needed it to describe the professional document of achievements, not starting something up again. The AI didn’t get that from the context, though I wish it did. If I could pronounce the word for AI, maybe it could then copy me. Also, I noticed contractions are tricky for the AI. The word here’s was pronounced as a 2 syllable word and the only way I could fix this was to go back and remove the contraction.

Mote to printed QR
I’ve created a workflow using Keyboard Maestro on a Mac to print a unique QR code on student’s work, taking them to their recorded Mote. It takes one keypress and about 20 seconds and uses the URL copied to the Universal Clipboard by my phone. Any chance you could build support for some of the handheld printers out there to do this natively? Mine is the MBrush by Kongten.

Translating speed
Is there a way to slow the speaking voice down when I record it? My younger students are too young to slow it down with the 3 dots click when listening to my recording. Can I record slower?

Setting to disable voice to text feature
I would like to disable the dictation bc my students' names are never correct and there are always at least one or two mistakes in the rest of the dictation too. I am having to go in after recording each loop and deleting the dictation.

Teacher use for student mote response.
I had emailed MOTE to ask which version I needed as a teacher, so that I could ask for unlimited student responses. I was told the $59 version is what I needed. My students are receiving the message that they are have met their mote entry and will need to pay. If I would have known that my students were going to have to pay, I would not have paid for this version. I thought I was going to be able to add my students to my account, but I can not figure out how to do that if I am able to. Some insight and help would be perfect.

Add a pen tool
A big limitation of Google docs is that there is no easy pen tool that works with stylus input/apple pencil etc. or even just a basic graphics tablet. Voicenotes work wonders but sometimes good old ticks and squiggles are the most efficient way to register feedback. Could this be added by the Mote team?

I was wondering if there are plans to add more languages to the translate option. I am a teacher in Hawaii and have a lot of students who speak Ilocano, Tagalog, and Chukese.

Urgent Request - Retrieval of Deleted Motes
Dear Mote Team, I am writing to request your assistance in retrieving a significant number of deleted motes. On or around December 19, 2022, I created approximately 400 motes for educational purposes. While I was inactive for a period, my students continued to utilize the recordings. Unfortunately, upon returning to the platform, I discovered that all of my motes had been deleted without notification. While I can still see them listed on the activity page, I am unable to access or utilize them. I understand that data retention policies may exist, but I would be incredibly grateful if there is any possibility of recovering these motes. The creation of this content required a substantial investment of time and effort, and their loss would be a significant setback. I would be happy to provide any additional information that may be helpful in facilitating the retrieval process. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Folders
I want to create topic folders for quicker access. I am not using Google Classroom (I am using Notion), and currently, my workflow is to have a browser window open with my library of recordings next to the Notion page I am grading. I select the recording, click download, and then drag the audio file into Notion. However, to speed things up, having the ability to create topic folders would be a big help so that when I am grading a lab report, I can open that folder and see all the related comments, etc, for other topics.
