Drop in a recording or record a meeting. Get a transcript with who said what, a summary and a DOCX or PDF, in minutes. Summaries and chat run on your computer too; there is no cloud option, not even a switch.
For professionals handling sensitive conversations, cloud tools create liabilities that can destroy careers and businesses.
Uploading client conversations to third-party servers can waive privilege protections. One data breach could expose confidential case strategy to opposing counsel.
Cloud transcription services often lack proper Business Associate Agreements. A single compliance violation can result in fines up to $50,000 per record — plus reputation damage.
Most cloud tools use your transcripts to improve their models. That executive strategy session? Now it's helping train a system your competitors might use tomorrow.
