final check
Ultimate review pass
A final check is a last review or inspection before something is completed or submitted.
It catches errors or problems that earlier passes might have missed: Give the report a final check before sending it.
The phrase emphasizes thoroughness at the conclusion of a process—whether proofreading a document, inspecting equipment, or verifying details before a deadline.
