High Criteria Inc. Introduces Speech-to-Text Pilot Program for Court Transcription
As courts across the country struggle with case backlogs, staffing shortages, and delays in transcript production, Liberty Recording is introducing a pilot program to help automate and accelerate court transcription.
For the first time, Liberty Recording users can convert spoken words from Liberty recording files directly into a text document—providing an innovative, automated alternative to manual transcription. This speech-to-text (STT) pilot program utilizes the Microsoft Azure Speech-to-Text engine, delivering fast, AI-powered transcript generation while preserving speaker distinctions for improved accuracy.
At a time when courts are facing overworked court reporters, high transcription costs, and growing delays in case processing, Liberty’s Speech-to-Text facility offers a path toward efficiency, without replacing human review.
