3. Reviewing and Finalizing

Before you finish, take a moment to review the transcript and make sure it’s complete and accurate. This step helps ensure the documentation is clear, consistent, and ready to share.

3. Best practices:

  • Read through the entire transcript to catch any remaining errors or unclear phrasing.
  • Check that speaker names are correct and consistent throughout the document.
  • Ensure timestamps align with the content.
  • Verify that all important points, decisions, and action items are clearly documented.
  • Review the summary to make sure it still reflects the updated transcript.

Once you’re satisfied with your edits, you can download the transcript in your preferred format for sharing, storing, or further processing.
