Abstract

An audiobook quality control system may detect and flag errors in human voice recordings of manuscripts at real-time or near real-time. The system may receive a manuscript and process the manuscript to generate a comparison document. The system may receive audio data from a recording session and may use a speech-to-text transcription tool to generate transcribed audio. Based on comparing the transcribed audio to the comparison document, the system may flag differences as errors. Additionally, the system may flag common recording errors (e.g., consistency, pronunciation, spacing issue, noise, wrong words, etc.). Based on the error types and number of errors, the system may determine to re-record specific sections of the manuscript.
