Copy or submit narratives generated by Draft One
Once your body camera footage is uploaded and the Auto-Transcript is available, you can use Draft One to generate a draft narrative. (Draft One can be used on any playable audio/video files supported by Axon Evidence, not just Axon body camera footage.) You can also use Draft One to generate a draft a narrative without using evidence and instead recording a narration describing an incident. After carefully reviewing and revising the draft, you can copy it to your computer's clipboard (Axon Evidence) or submit it for supervisor review (Axon Records and Standards).
Watch this video to learn about the safeguards you will encounter when using Draft One to generate a narrative for a report.
