Client interviews and meetings · working transcript

Transcribe recordings made in a law office interviews and meetings, ready to work from.

A recording made in a law office, such as a 90-minute client interview or a 2-hour case meeting, is transcribed at about 2 minutes per audio hour, so the interview is text in roughly 3 minutes. The first 20 minutes are free, and a month of fifteen 90-minute interviews, 1,350 minutes, fits the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes.

Where the recordings come from

Lawyers record to listen properly, not to type. The typing is the part that eats the afternoon.

Phone, dictation recorder or call

Interviews in the office are usually captured on a phone or a dictation recorder on the desk; remote ones come from the video-call app's recording. Copy the file to your computer and upload it. Recording a client or a call needs whatever consent the law where you are requires, so get it before you press record. Remote calls recorded in the video app usually save as MP4 or M4A, though the exact type depends on the app.

Facts pulled out for the file

Alongside the transcript you get the dates, amounts, addresses and names that were said, chapters that follow each topic, and a brief of the main points. The client and colleagues are named in the summary and chapters.

A working draft, not a record

This is an AI transcript to work from. It is not a certified or official transcript, it is not legal advice, and anything quoted in a filing should be checked against the audio.

The month, costed

Fifteen 90-minute interviews a month is 1,350 minutes, inside the $12 pack of 2,000. A single 2-hour meeting is 120 minutes of the $6 pack of 500. Credits do not expire, so a quiet month costs nothing.

Why recordings sit in the matter folder

The interview was recorded so nothing would be missed. Then nobody had time to listen again.

✗ A recording and a handwritten note

The audio is kept, and the attendance note is written from memory at the end of the day.

  • Dates and figures half remembered
  • An hour of replay to check one answer
  • Notes that differ from what was said
  • Trainees typing instead of researching
  • Meeting actions lost between partners
  • Calls recorded and never reviewed

✓ Searchable text in the matter file

Upload once and work from text with times, chapters and the key facts listed.

  • About 3 minutes for a 90-minute interview
  • First 20 minutes free
  • Every date, sum and name said, listed
  • Chapters for each issue discussed
  • Speakers named in the summary and key quotes

FAQ

Law office recordings: what people ask.

How quickly is a client interview ready?

About 2 minutes for each hour of audio. A 90-minute interview is ready in roughly 3 minutes, and a 3-hour meeting in about 6. The text stays in your Library until you download or delete it.

Is the transcript certified?

No. It is a working transcript produced by AI for your own use. For a certified or official transcript, use the route your court or regulator requires.

What does a month of interviews cost?

Fifteen 90-minute interviews come to 1,350 minutes on the $12 pack of 2,000. A busier month of 3,000 minutes moves to the $24 pack of 5,000.

Is client audio kept private?

Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training. You can delete the file and its transcript once the text is in your system; decide your firm's policy on client recordings before you start.

Can it handle interpreters and two languages?

99 languages are detected automatically, and a recording that switches language is detected on its main language. Check the passages in the second language with care.

What file types work?

Phone and recorder files usually upload as they are, typically M4A, MP3 or WAV, and call recordings as MP4. One file can be up to 10 hours or 5 GB. A recording that will not upload can be converted to MP3 first.
