What You Need to Certify Faster
AI drafts the first pass. You review, certify, and sign.
Built for the people who make the record — court reporters, transcribers, scopists, and agencies. AI turns any recording into a searchable, timestamped, speaker-ID'd draft in minutes, so you can review it, put your name on it, and take on more jobs without burning out.
Know Exactly Who Said What — Automatically
No more manually noting speakers or cross-referencing audio. AI identifies each voice and labels them throughout the transcript — so you can focus on what was said, not who said it.
- Handles multi-party depositions with up to 36 speakers
- Rename to real names: "Attorney Smith," "Witness Johnson," "The Court"
- Color-coded so you can scan a transcript at a glance
- Filter by speaker — isolate exactly what the witness said
Courtroom Recordings, Split by Microphone
Many U.S. courtrooms record on FTR (For The Record), a multi-channel system that puts each microphone in the room — the bench, the witness stand, counsel tables — on its own audio channel inside one .trm file. TranscribeLegal reads the .trm file directly, splits it into those individual microphone channels, and transcribes each one on its own instead of flattening the room into a single blended track.
- Each microphone channel it detects is transcribed separately, not mixed into one track
- Labeled by hardware channel — "Microphone 1," "Microphone 2," and so on
- Rename any label once you know who was on that mic — "Microphone 3" becomes "The Court" or a name
- Channels that stayed silent are excluded from the draft, so you're not scrolling through empty tracks
- Same exports as any other job — text, SRT, VTT, JSON, RTF, and a QA file
Find the Exact Testimony You Need — Instantly
Stop scrubbing through hours of audio to find one statement. Search the full transcript by keyword, phrase, or speaker — and jump straight to that moment in the recording.
- Search across the entire transcript in a keystroke
- Results highlighted with surrounding context
- Click any timestamp to hear that exact moment
- Copy any quote with its timestamp — ready to cite
One Transcript, Every Format You Need
Take the draft into Word as a Q&A RTF, send a plain-text copy, caption a video exhibit, or certify it and export a certified PDF — all from the same recording.
Q&A RTF
Deposition-style Q. and A., Courier and double-spaced, on a hanging indent. Opens straight into Word or your editing software for the review pass.
Plain Text
The same Q&A layout as ASCII, or a timestamped transcript. Copy a quote into a brief or email in seconds.
SRT & VTT
Caption video depositions or exhibits for presentation at mediation or trial.
Certified PDF
When you sign off, export a PDF carrying your certification statement, signature, and chain of custody.
