Artificial Intelligence Saves Lawyers Time And Money While Improving Accessibility Of Data

In the legal profession, time is money. Every minute spent on administrative tasks, like transcribing notes and reviewing audio and video evidence, is time that could be better spent on billable work. That is where VIQ Solutions comes in, offering a suite of transcription and digital evidence management tools that help law firms save time and money while improving the accuracy and security of their records.

VIQ's FirstDraft(TM) speech-to-text transcription software is an integral part of legal workflow, enabling attorneys and support staff to transcribe notes, interviews, and other recordings quickly and accurately into text documents that can be easily reviewed and shared. Advanced artificial intelligence analyzes speech patterns and automatically recognizes if there are multiple speakers to ensure diarization is applied while quickly creating the transcript with a high degree of accuracy, reducing the time and effort required for manual transcription.

Here are a few examples of legal professionals that trust VIQ Solutions to help them expedite the time to create records:
