Is My AI Call Transcript What Was Actually Said?

No, not automatically. A stored transcript is a reconstruction assembled by your pipeline, not a recording of the call, and eleven documented mechanisms make the two differ, ten of them with no recognition error involved at all. Every one was re-read at source on 20 September 2026. Run the Read Back Test below over your last 20 calls.

What this covers

  • Quick answer
  • What my transcript is, and what it is not
  • The divergence register: eleven documented ways the text and the call differ
  • The Read Back Test: what to do with my last 20 calls
  • Which artefact answers which question

This is a technical summary. The full guide — with the tables and worked examples — is on our site: *Is My AI Call Transcript What Was Actually Said?*.
