HEARTH Design
Photo · transcription gate

Word for word, first.

The new screen between photo capture and the structured preview. Hearth's vision pipeline transcribes the source verbatim — no restructuring, no reordering — and the cook reviews the transcription against the original photo before the AI structures it. Two failure modes are separated: transcription errors (handled in this gate), structure errors (handled at the Import preview). Heirloom photos carry a structurally worse OCR baseline; this is where Hearth earns its trust on hard inputs. Dotted-Ochre underlines mark low-confidence words. Continue commits the transcription and lands the cook on the photo-variant Import preview.
