Introduced here are recording devices optimized for recording speech between multiple parties (e.g., a speaker and a counterparty, or a first speaker and a second speaker). These recording devices can facilitate the discovery of personalized characteristics of an interaction by detecting location. For example, these recording devices can discover the intent behind certain terms and phrases in the context of a conversation. A recording device can include a communication module configured to stream recorded media content to another electronic device, as well as a marker identification module configured to identify nearby beacons. For example, a recording device may include a Bluetooth® Low Energy chipset configured to identify nearby Bluetooth® beacons and a Wi-Fi® chipset configured to stream recorded media content to another electronic device.
