Steno, the leading provider of tech-enabled legal support and court reporting services, today announced the general availability of Transcript Genius, its revolutionary AI-powered transcript analysis tool, which empowers attorneys to streamline workflows, extract key insights, and build stronger cases – all at no additional cost.

Say "goodbye" to manual transcript review. Transcript Genius transforms the traditional, labor-intensive process of transcript analysis by reading and analyzing your transcripts for you. Instead of spending hours poring over hundreds of pages, attorneys can ask Transcript Genius simple questions, like "What did the witness say about the accident?" or "Find any contradictions in the testimony" and Transcript Genius will pull out the key information, complete with page and line citations.

Transcript Genius lets attorneys analyze their entire transcript library in real-time, track and manage citations, and interrogate multiple transcripts simultaneously, as Dylan Ruga, Steno's co-founder and president, explains: 

"At Steno, we've always had one goal - to make it easier for you to win your case. We understand the challenges litigators face when reviewing mountains of transcripts, Transcript Genius is a powerful tool that saves them time, empowers informed decision-making, and ultimately helps them achieve the best possible outcomes for their clients. We are harnessing AI to give our users a competitive edge, saving them hours of manual review time by allowing them to interrogate transcripts, generate custom summaries based on their specific needs, and analyze multiple depositions simultaneously. Best of all, it's included at no additional cost with Steno's services."

Attorneys can use Transcript Genius to enhance their practice in several ways. They can quickly find specific information within transcripts, analyze previous testimony to prepare for depositions, identify critical admissions and contradictions across transcripts to develop case strategies, generate summaries and timelines for trial preparation, find and cite evidence to support motions and briefs, locate contradictory statements to strengthen their case during witness impeachment, and reflect on their deposition techniques to identify areas for growth. 

Unlike competitors who charge extra for AI features, Transcript Genius is included at no additional cost with Steno's services. Since Steno launched Transcript Genius in beta earlier this year, users have reported that Transcript Genius saves them an average of 2-4 hours per case.
