Dictionary
Add custom vocabulary and spelling corrections to improve transcription accuracy.
The Dictionary lets you teach Glaido words it might not recognize out of the box. This includes technical terms, brand names, proper nouns, or any specialized vocabulary. You can also set up automatic spelling corrections.
Two modes
Add words so Glaido recognizes them.
Use this when Glaido consistently misrecognizes a word. Adding it to the dictionary improves recognition accuracy.
Examples:
- Company names: "Glaido", "Salesforce"
- Technical terms: "Kubernetes", "WebSocket"
- Names: "Kowalski", "PostgreSQL"
Automatically replace misspellings.
Define a misspelling and its correct version. Whenever the transcription produces the misspelling, Glaido automatically replaces it.
Matching is case-insensitive, so "postgress" also catches "Postgress" and "POSTGRESS".
Examples:
| Misspelling | Correction |
|---|---|
| "Shawn" | "Sean" |
| "glaido" | "Glaido" |
| "postgress" | "Postgres" |
