Overview

Audio Dictation Quality Checker evaluates an audio file before transcription by checking sample rate, channel count, clipping, speech activity, and estimated noise separation. It returns a deterministic preflight score in JSON and does not transcribe the recording.

When to use

Check whether a dictation recording is suitable for a transcription workflow.
Identify clipping, low speech activity, or poor noise separation before sending audio for transcription.
Review audio format, sample rate, and channel information during a transcription preflight.

How it works

1Upload one audio file as the required input.
2The tool checks the source sample rate, channel count, and audio format.
3It measures clipping and speech activity in the recording.
4It estimates noise separation and returns a deterministic preflight score as JSON.

Use cases

Pre-screening voice dictation before transcription.
Finding recording issues such as clipping or excessive background noise.
Checking audio consistency across files used in a transcription workflow.

Examples

1. Preflight a voice memo

Content writer

Background

A content writer records article ideas as voice memos and wants to check each recording before submitting it for transcription.

Problem

The writer needs to identify recordings with clipping, weak speech activity, or poor noise separation.

How to use

Upload the voice memo as the audio file and review the returned JSON score and measurements.

Outcome

The writer can separate recordings that appear suitable for transcription from those that need to be recorded again.

2. Check an interview recording

Researcher

Background

A researcher records an interview and wants a quality check before starting a transcription workflow.

Problem

The researcher needs to confirm the recording properties and detect potential audio quality issues early.

How to use

Upload the interview audio file and inspect its sample rate, channel count, clipping, speech activity, and estimated noise separation.

Outcome

The researcher receives a deterministic preflight assessment without running speech recognition.
