Readback catches readback errors in air traffic control radio. When a controller says “descend flight level one hundred” and the pilot reads back “one one zero”, nobody may notice, and missed readback errors are a classic cause of level busts and loss of separation. Today a unit finds them only by listening to recordings by hand. Readback listens to the frequency, parses every clearance, and runs two independent checks: the pilot’s readback against the controller’s instruction, and the aircraft’s ADS-B track against what it was cleared to do. Alerts appear on a live radar monitor. A review console lets safety teams upload up to 4 hours of recorder audio, confirm or reject each alert next to the audio, and export an alert register with a precision measured on their own radio. For any alert, a Muse Spark agent gathers the evidence through tool calls and drafts an occurrence report. In simulation it caught 2,052 of 2,052 planted problems with no false error alerts. On a blind seven-airport test of real radio, a fine-tuned Muse Glimmer 30B parsed 86.3% of clearances exactly, the best of four parsers. Every alert goes to a human: it is decision support, not a replacement for the controller.
