Overview

We are on a mission to provide faster and affordable access to the justice system - starting with depositions and trials.

1000s of depositions and trials run through DraftTheRecord every week including Senate and House meetings, Confidential federal hearings, criminal proceedings like murder trials, and civil lawsuits involving family disputes, personal injury and much more.

During legal proceedings,

• DraftTheRecord provides real time assistance to attorneys, previously requiring a legal team. The platform then helps analyze depositions and other evidence cutting down trial prep time from weeks to days.

• Court reporters use DraftTheRecord to capture audio and generate live transcript drafts for attorneys and judges.

• Transcribers use our legal-specific AI transcription model to cut transcription time by 3x.
