In their own words
MatterScribe
MatterScribe converts legal audio into searchable, speaker-labeled rough transcripts for hearings, depositions, client meetings, and other recordings. It reads ForTheRecord .TRM files directly and preserves multi-channel audio without requiring a proprietary player or conversion. Supported inputs also include common audio and video formats, plus exports from Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet. The Review Dashboard offers synced playback, transcript search and editing, and AI-generated court logs and key points. Transcripts export as PDF or DOCX with speaker labels and timestamps; source audio can be extracted as MP3. MatterScribe handles 22 languages plus English, detects mixed-language recordings, and can display labeled English machine translations beside the original text. Files and transcripts use AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS in transit on SOC 2-compliant cloud infrastructure. A 14-day trial includes 120 minutes and requires a valid payment method. Pay-As-You-Go is listed at $0 /month plus $0.10/min, with 30 free minutes and three-day file retention. Its output is a working transcript, not a certified or court-admissible transcript.
