What to check in your trial

Check model downloads, available memory, GPU support and optional external AI connections before processing sensitive material.

  1. Use the same recording for every tool, with the spoken language set correctly. Include a few names, numbers and technical terms.
  2. Compare the text with the audio. Record corrections, missed words and speaker changes separately from the quality of a generated summary.
  3. Open a document or subtitle export in the application where it will be used. Check formatting, timestamps and what remains available after the trial.
