adjust transcript is a document-focused feature that lets users review, correct, and align transcribed text associated with recorded or digitally captured interactions before finalizing documents. It supports manual edits, timestamp alignment, and metadata tagging so that transcripts attached to agreements accurately reflect the original content. In regulated U.S. environments this step can improve clarity for records, reduce downstream disputes, and ensure that documents used in signature flows match the parties' intent and documented communication.

When adjust transcript is the Right Choice

Use adjust transcript to correct inaccuracies, preserve context, and ensure legal clarity in documents derived from voice or automated transcriptions.

  • Delays occur when manual review is required for many transcripts, slowing signature workflows and approvals.
