Transcribe a French court hearing as a working text with timestamps.
A hearing held in French in Canada, before a court, a tribunal or an administrative board, often fills a 5-hour day, and that day comes back here as timestamped French text in about 10 minutes. The first 20 minutes are free, and a three-day hearing of 5 hours a day, 900 minutes, fits on the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes.
What the hearing becomes
A day of testimony in French, searchable before the next morning.
The full day in one file
Morning and afternoon can go in as one recording of up to 10 hours or 5 GB. Upload the audio or video you lawfully hold on upload page; nothing joins the hearing, and the work happens on the recording afterwards.
Every passage timed
Each passage keeps its time in the recording, so a quote in your notes leads straight back to the audio for checking before it goes into a brief. Ask the chat where a witness spoke about a particular date and it answers with the passage and its minute.
Names, dates, amounts
The brief lists the dates, sums, exhibit numbers and places mentioned. Witnesses and counsel are named in the summary and the key quotes as they were introduced.
What this is not
What comes back is an AI transcript with timestamps, made for working from. It is not a certified court transcript, not a substitute for a court reporter, and not legal advice; where an official record is needed, order it through the proper channel.
Why hearing notes fall short
Counsel cannot write down testimony and listen for the next objection.

FAQ
French hearing recordings, the common questions.
How long does a 5-hour hearing day take?
About 10 minutes. A 7-hour day takes about 14, at roughly 2 minutes per hour of audio.
What does a hearing of several days cost?
Three 5-hour days add up to 900 minutes, which the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes covers. A single 5-hour day, 300 minutes, fits the $6 pack of 500 minutes, and a two-week hearing of ten 5-hour days, 3,000 minutes, needs the $24 pack of 5,000 minutes. Every pack is priced in US dollars. Each day can go in as its own file, so the text of day one is ready to read while day two is still being heard.
Does it handle French, and English testimony too?
French is among the 99 languages recognised automatically. When testimony moves into English, the hearing is detected on its main language and the switches are handled, so one file gives one transcript.
The video of the day is several gigabytes. What then?
Before a first pack, uploads stop at 2 GB; with a pack, one file can reach 5 GB and 10 hours. If the file is turned away, an MP3 conversion of it will go through, and audio alone is a fraction of the size.
Does it work for depositions and out-of-court examinations?
Yes, the same way: any recording of speech you hold, up to 10 hours per file, comes back as a working text. An examination running past 10 hours is uploaded in two parts. Upload each examination as its own file so it gets its own brief, chapters and list of the names and dates mentioned.
Who sees a hearing recording I upload?
Recordings of hearings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training. The working text downloads as TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON.
