How do you check product names and units in added narration?
Listen to the exact narration used in the final edit and compare it with an approved pronunciation reference and product values. Correct spelling in a script does not prove correct spoken identity, decimal or unit. If the audio is wrong, repair the recording and its captions together.
Agree on what the listener should hear
Ask the product owner how the exact brand and model are pronounced in the target language. Keep the written name, plain-language pronunciation or authorized reference recording, and the approved quantity with its unit. A voice system’s first attempt is not the pronunciation authority. W3C discusses cases where pronunciation changes meaning; the following product workflow is an editorial method, not a claim that every brand name triggers the same accessibility criterion.
Identify who can approve product facts as well as speech. If the script and product record conflict, resolve the value before recording a smoother sentence. Do not change a commercial claim merely to fit the available duration.
Repair a name and a decimal independently
Fictional practice, not an audio test: the approved record names “NOVA Q3” and a capacity of 0.5 L. The owner’s invented spoken form is “NOVA cue three, half a litre.” A draft recording instead says “NOVA cue thirty, five litres.”
| Issue | Compare | Required decision |
|---|---|---|
| Q3 versus Q thirty | Owner-approved spoken model identity | Correct the model in the recording |
| 0.5 L versus five litres | Approved product value and unit | Correct the tenfold error; do not just fix subtitles |
| Half a litre / 500 mL | Equivalent wording, if approved for this product | Preserve the same value; choose understandable local wording |
| Correct audio but wrong caption | Listen to the revised audio and read its caption | Repair the caption without inventing different speech |
The arithmetic example is invented and supplies no real product specification. Keep the exact approved name in the visible product text even if the pronunciation reference spells it phonetically. A transliteration for voice direction is not automatically the new public brand name.
Listen to the channel the buyer receives
Use a revision copy and listen after music, effects and edits are included. Check whether a decimal, “not,” or a short unit is masked or cut off. A clean isolated sentence does not prove the final mix is intelligible. Confirm that the correction did not duplicate a word or disturb the adjacent phrase.
Review actual selected tools and output rather than assuming all generated clips have the same audio capability. This guide approves narration produced or edited in your chosen workflow; it does not assert that CartVisual provides a final audio-mixing or pronunciation-certification service.
Keep captions and the corrected recording together
Replay the revised export with its selected caption language. W3C’s caption guidance concerns the audio information actually present; a correct subtitle cannot conceal an incorrect spoken unit. Keep the pronunciation reference, approved values, audio revision and caption revision together.
If the narrator, language, sentence or soundtrack changes, reopen the affected checks. Use automatic-caption proofing for transcription errors and voiceover timing for sequence planning. No voice generation, mix, listen test or upload was performed for this article.

Frequently asked questions
Does a correctly spelled script prove correct speech?
No. Listen to the actual final recording and compare the identity, value and unit with approved references.
Can correct captions compensate for a wrong spoken unit?
Repair the audio and captions together. Different channels should not give different product values.
Does this guide certify an CartVisual audio mix?
No. It is a manual review method for the actual narration and editing workflow you use.
