Audiobook Proofing

Audiobook proofing before export.

AuthorVoices quality checks compare generated audio against the source manuscript and surface sections that may need a human review before the audiobook is finalized.

What matters
  • Checks narration against source text
  • Flags skipped or changed words
  • Finds long silence issues
  • Creates a section-by-section report

What audiobook proofing should catch

Proofing is the step between “the audio exists” and “the audiobook is ready to share.” It should help authors focus attention where it matters.

1

Skipped text

Spot phrases or sentences that may not have made it into the narration.

2

Wrong words

Compare the transcript to the manuscript so accidental substitutions are easier to review.

3

Silence issues

Long gaps can interrupt listening and may cause problems on some distribution channels.

4

Section reports

Review findings chapter by chapter instead of hunting through hours of audio.

5

Dismiss false alarms

Mark harmless differences so the report stays focused on real production issues.

6

Fix and re-check

Use targeted re-narration, then re-run checks on the sections that changed.

Proof the audiobook while fixes are still easy.
