- For a five-page piano-vocal test, it reports 0.4% lyric-syllable errors and notes that its corrected reference may slightly favor its own reading.
Field notes
The workflow accepts PDFs or phone photos, emails when reading is complete, then asks about uncertain spots before editing. It supports exports to MusicXML, MIDI, and PDF, and says its strongest area is choral notation, including lyrics, verses, divisi, and piano reductions. Published comparisons include pitch F1, symbol error rate, and lyric-syllable error rates; the page notes that one corrected-score benchmark may slightly favor its own system.
