Transcript review checks to run before publishing any transcript page
A clean transcript page needs one last review for names, numbers, structure, and readability.

Why raw transcripts should not be published as-is
Raw transcripts often include filler, repeated phrases, and formatting issues that make the page harder to trust.
Even when the transcript is accurate enough, the published version can still feel low quality if the structure is weak.
What to review first
Check names, brands, technical terms, and numbers. These are the parts most likely to cause confusion if they are wrong.
Then review heading structure and paragraph length so the page is easier to scan and quote.
What to clean up
Remove repeated openings, broken transitions, and lines that only exist because of how speech sounds in real time.
If the page includes a summary or highlights, make sure they match the transcript and do not overstate the source.
Outcome
A short final review makes a major difference in credibility and usability.
It turns the transcript from a raw extraction artifact into a page readers can rely on.
