You downloaded Doza Assist. Here's what it grew into.

Hey,

You're getting this because at some point you downloaded Doza Assist, the open source version. Thank you for that. Every download, every GitHub star, every bug report from this list shaped what the tool became. This project exists because editors like you tried it early.

Today I'm celebrating something: Doza Assist Pro is live.

The headline is this: Pro doesn't just analyze one interview anymore. It analyzes all of them.

Batch everything. Drop a whole folder of footage into the queue. Every file gets transcribed and analyzed while you do something else. No babysitting one file at a time.

Collections. This is the big one. Point Pro at a folder of interviews and it reads across all of them at once. Shared themes, echoes and contradictions between subjects, the strongest moments across the whole project, and story structures that connect them. It's the difference between finding a good quote in one interview and finding the thread that runs through eight of them. Built for docs and series work where the story lives between the interviews, not inside any single one.

Story Brief. A producer-level read of the material: recommended arcs, tensions worth building around, coverage gaps with suggested follow-up questions.

Speaker ID. Automatic diarization labels who said what, refined in the background while you work.

Quote Sheets. Turn any interview into a press-ready PDF or Word doc with cleaned quotes, timecodes, and a full Q&A index.

One-click install. Signed, notarized Mac app. No Terminal, no Homebrew, no Python setup. Download, drag to Applications, done. Auto-updates from then on.

Everything still runs entirely on your Mac. No cloud, no account, no uploads, no per-minute meters. That part will never change.

Pro is $199, one-time. You own it forever. First year of updates included. As a thank you to this list, use code LAUNCH50 at checkout for $50 off, $149 total, at doza.ai/buy.

One ask: if you buy it, or if you don't, hit reply and tell me why. What's working, what's broken, what's missing. I read every email and a lot of what's in Pro today came directly from replies like yours.

Thanks for being here from the start.
