Requesting Retranscription and Making Corrections
Sometimes transcripts need fixes. Podscan makes it easy to improve transcript accuracy through retranscription requests and direct corrections.
Request a full retranscription when:
- Many words are incorrect
- Speaker labels are wrong
- Timestamps are misaligned
- Audio quality caused issues
Just click "Request Retranscription" in the Data Fidelity menu. The system will process your request immediately. Due to the asynchronous nature of the ranscription queue, some episodes —particularly ones of relatively small podcasts— might take up to 24 hours.
Retranscribing a podcast will always use the highest possible quality.
Sometimes, the extracted hosts, guests, and summary data might be a bit off — or not present at all. You can request reanalysis from the three-dot dropdown menu. We will immediately queue up another extraction run on our servers, and it'll be done within the hour. If it doesn't go through in 24 days, please reach out to us.
For small fixes, use the correction tool:

Podscan learns from corrections. If you fix a company name once, it might suggest the same fix elsewhere. The system remembers common corrections for:
- Company names
- Technical terms
- People's names
- Industry jargon
Check context before correcting
Include source links when relevant
Group related corrections
Mark priority fixes
