The benchmark will report capture time, correction time, meaningful error count, completeness, and total time to a review-ready note. It will not compress every tradeoff into one opaque score.
The same device, Apple Pencil, source, lighting, and reviewer will be used. Practice runs will be separated from measured runs. Product versions and test dates will be disclosed.
Results, winner language, and structured research claims will be added only after raw observations and representative examples are available for inspection.
