Bulk upload depositions
Drag in audio and video by the batch. Files process in parallel, so a week of depositions becomes a set of transcripts in one sitting.
A summary is only worth
what you can check.
Upload deposition audio or video and Sonix returns a timestamped, speaker-labeled transcript in minutes, then AI summaries of the key points, themes, and timelines inside it. Every point stays tied to the line it came from, so a person at your firm can confirm it before it shapes anything.

Your transcripts never train AI
From raw video to a summary you can check
Litigation teams transcribe depositions in minutes, draft AI summaries of the key points, and search every transcript in the matter, with each claim traceable back to the line it came from.
Transcripts in minutes
A full day comes back timestamped and speaker-labeled at $10 an audio hour, with no review queue sitting in the middle.
AI summaries of key points
Summaries surface key points, themes, and timelines. They are working drafts your team checks against the timestamped record.
Every voice attributed
Deponents and counsel get automatic labels, so testimony is attributed line by line and your staff confirms the names while listening.
Search the whole matter
One query across every deposition surfaces each time a topic, a name, or a date came up in any witness's testimony.
Export to DOCX & PDF
Transcripts and summaries move into deposition outlines, motion drafts, and witness preparation memos.

Transcribe, summarize, verify.
In that order.
This is a loop, not a shortcut. Sonix transcribes the deposition first. AI summaries draft the key points from that transcript. Then your team checks each point against the timestamped testimony behind it. The summary that ends up shaping strategy is one a person read, not just one a model wrote.
- 1Upload the deposition the day it ends. Drag in the audio or video, alone or by the batch. Files process in parallel and come back timestamped and speaker-labeled in minutes, with nothing queued behind a human reviewer.
- 2Let the summary take the first pass. AI summaries draft key points, themes, and timelines from the transcript. Treat them as a fast map of the testimony rather than a substitute for having read it.
- 3Check every point against the record. Before a summary point reaches a motion, follow its timestamp back to the testimony, confirm the wording in the browser editor, and correct whatever the AI got wrong.
What the summary does,
and what you still do
How do AI deposition summaries work?
Sonix transcribes the deposition first, with timestamps and speaker labels, then AI summaries extract key points, themes, and timelines from that transcript. Every point stays tied to the timestamped record, which is what lets your team check a claim against the actual testimony before relying on it.
How fast is a full day summarized?
The transcript is typically minutes, even for a full day of video, and summaries follow minutes after that. A deposition that ends in the afternoon can be transcribed, summarized, and searchable the same evening, while everyone still remembers how the answers sounded.
Can Sonix spot recurring themes?
Yes, on Sonix Legal Enterprise. Multi-transcript analysis pulls key points, themes, and timelines across the depositions in a matter, so contradictions and repeated topics surface without a manual read of every transcript. Each finding traces back to timestamped testimony your team can verify.
How does it tell deponents and attorneys apart?
Automatic speaker labels separate each voice, so questions and answers are attributed line by line. Your staff confirms or renames speakers in the editor while the audio plays, and those labels carry into search results and every export.
How does this compare to a deposition summary service?
A summarizing service bills by the page and takes days. Sonix transcribes at $10 an audio hour and drafts summaries in minutes, which changes the question from which depositions deserve a summary to whether there is any reason not to summarize all of them. The trade is honest: your team reviews the draft rather than outsourcing that judgment.
What does the whole thing cost?
Transcription is $10 an audio hour on pay as you go, with no subscription. AI summaries and multi-deposition analysis are part of Sonix Legal Enterprise, priced by volume through our legal sales team. Either way, cost stops being the reason a deposition goes unsummarized.
