Built for the Record

Every proceeding you cover,
drafted and searchable

Court reporters and deposition agencies use Sonix to turn proceeding audio and video into timestamped, speaker-labeled rough drafts they scope, perfect, and produce through their own certification process.

Depositions

Full-day and multi-day deposition audio becomes a speaker-labeled rough draft in minutes, ready to scope against your steno or audio record.

Hearings & court proceedings

Motion hearings, bench trials, and administrative proceedings transcribed with timestamps that tie every statement to the exact moment in the recording.

Arbitrations

Private arbitration sessions get the same fast draft treatment, with multi-party speaker labels that keep panel members, counsel, and witnesses straight.

Examinations under oath

EUOs and sworn statements for insurance matters come back as clean working drafts, so you can turn the transcript around while the file is still open.

Scoping & draft preparation

Use the AI draft as your first pass. Audio stays synced word by word, so you or your scopist resolve drops and inaudibles without hunting through the recording.

Backup audio coverage

When primary capture fails or a rush job lands without coverage, your backup audio becomes a working draft instead of hours of untranscribed tape.

From Job to Draft

How reporters go from
audio to working draft

Upload the proceeding audio or video

Drag in files from your recorder, laptop, or Zoom, or pull them from Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive. Batch-upload a whole day of jobs at once.

AI rough draft in minutes

Automated transcription returns a timestamped rough draft at $10 per audio hour, often before you have finished packing up your equipment.

Speakers labeled for every party

Attorneys, witnesses, and interpreters are separated automatically. Rename a speaker to a name or role once and the label applies across the whole draft.

Scope and correct in the browser

Click any word to hear that exact moment. You or your scopist fix drops, spellings, and terms directly in the editor, no installs or plugins required.

Search any proceeding in seconds

Multi-file search finds terms, exhibit references, names, and dates across every job in your account, so read-backs and errata checks take seconds.

Export into your production workflow

Export to DOCX for your own transcript templates, or to PDF, SRT, and VTT subtitle formats for video deliverables. Timestamps carry through.

Common Questions

Court reporter transcription,
answered directly

How fast do I get a rough draft back?

A one-hour proceeding is usually transcribed in minutes, not overnight. Files process in parallel, so a full day of depositions uploaded together comes back around the same time. You get a timestamped, speaker-labeled draft to scope while the testimony is still fresh in your mind.

Does Sonix replace the court reporter?

No. Sonix produces a fast AI rough draft that you review, correct, and certify through your own process. You remain the authority on the record; Sonix just removes the hours of first-pass typing so you can focus on accuracy, formatting, and getting the transcript out the door.

How does speaker identification handle multi-party proceedings?

Sonix automatically separates and labels each voice, so attorneys, the witness, and interpreters each get their own line. You can rename speakers to real names or roles, merge duplicates in one click, and export with that attribution, which keeps colloquy in a crowded deposition easy to follow.

What export formats fit a court reporter's production workflow?

Sonix exports to DOCX and PDF for draft and transcript production, plus SRT and VTT subtitle formats for synced video deliverables. Timestamps and speaker labels carry through to every format, so the draft you scoped drops into your own templates instead of being retyped from scratch.

How accurate is Sonix on legal terminology?

Sonix reaches up to 99% accuracy on clear audio, including case names, statutory citations, and the medical and technical terms that fill expert testimony. Every word stays synced to the audio in the editor, so you verify anything questionable by clicking it and hearing that exact moment.

How much does Sonix cost compared to per-page transcription?

Sonix is $10 per audio hour on the pay-as-you-go plan, with lower rates on subscription plans. Because you pay by the hour of audio instead of by the page, a rough draft of a seven-hour deposition costs about $70, and your per-page rates stay yours to bill.
