We are very excited about our partnership with Esquire and look forward to bringing the integration to both BigHand and iCreate users.”
BigHand’s voice productivity technology combines smartphone dictation apps, advanced workflow software and speech recognition integration to enable lawyers and their firms to operate more efficiently at reduced costs. When a dictation is initiated, whether on a smartphone or digital hardware device, BigHand provides firms with customized workflows and work share options to process and prioritize dictations faster and with more accuracy.
Firms that use BigHand can prioritize urgent work and set alerts to ensure important items get expedited. Once a transcription is ready for production, iCreate completes the workflow cycle by providing industry leading document production tools to quickly and accurately create, process, format and finalize documents for transmission.
“By integrating BigHand with the advanced new features of iCreate, we continue our focus on client minded productivity enhancements; providing highly efficient tools that decrease the effort needed to consistently produce high quality legal documents, thus delivering significant time and cost savings,” states Esquire Innovations President, Ian Kujawa. “In addition to having access to advanced formatting, repurposing and renovation tools, users can now leverage BigHand’s digital dictation software to easily expedite the process of getting the right content into the proper template.”
