DialectLoop treats corpus quality control (QC) as an iterative research task rather than a one-shot classification problem. A Transcription Auditor and a Dialect Verifier independently inspect transcript batches; a Critic reconciles their outputs and escalates uncertain cases; and a Summariser presents batch-level findings to a researcher before the next iteration.
The paper evaluates this workflow on a 74-hour Bengali speech corpus containing 8,400 segments from 12 districts of Bangladesh. On a stratified, expert-adjudicated subset of 1,200 segments, DialectLoop reports a 91% error detection rate, 89% dialect-label accuracy, and Cohen's $\kappa=0.86$.

## π Scope
DialectLoop is designed for QC of an existing corpus with transcripts and district-level metadata. It does **not** perform data collection, initial transcription, ASR training, or dialect classification at deployment time. It is a research accelerator with explicit human oversight, not an autonomous annotation system.
