DepoFlow vs eLitigateZE

DepoFlow syncs deposition transcripts with video, supports testimony designation, and renders trial-ready clips on the user’s machine. Its local speech recognition aligns transcript words with video moments, and each completed sync gets a color-coded quality score. In the Review app, transcript and video appear side by side, with page-line navigation, full-text search, and line selection that jumps to the corresponding moment. Users can arrange page-line ranges into designation sets, add ranges in bulk, or import opposing counsel’s lists from TXT, CSV, XLSX, and DOCX files. Exports include stitched MP4s, designation PDFs, and page-line exchange lists, with targets such as TrialDirector, Sanction, Summation, LiveNote/Case Notebook, RealLegal, AMICUS, and OpenDVT. A standalone HTML viewer opens synced video and transcript in a browser without installation or internet. After installation, the desktop app can sync, designate, and render clips offline. DepoFlow offers free viewing and paid options, including sync credits at $7.50 per credit and designation and clip exports at $99.00 per transcript. It runs on macOS, Windows, and web browsers.

eLitigateZE is a cloud platform for remote and hybrid depositions, integrated with Zoom as an embedded Zoom App. Case teams can upload, search, preview, stamp, annotate, present, and reuse exhibits across linked depositions. During proceedings, Testimony Tools provide testimony streaming, playback, bookmarks, issues, and notes; the plan says these tools require an Esquire digital reporter. Afterward, searchable ASR testimony can synchronize with audio and video when video is ordered and a videographer is present. Users can download a formatted PDF rough transcript in speaker-designated or Q&A format and create MP4 testimony clips synchronized with written testimony. A deposition supports up to 500 participants. Current Chrome, Safari, and Edge browsers are supported, but Firefox is not. Mobile access uses Zoom on Android and iOS, Safari on iOS/iPad, or Chrome on Android. Media traffic uses AES-256 end-to-end encryption, web traffic uses TLS 1.2, and case files are encrypted on AWS. Audio and video files require screen sharing instead of direct in-app presentation. Pricing is available on request.
