A court transcriber turns recordings of legal proceedings, like oral arguments, moot court rounds, mock trial sessions, and law school lectures, into accurate written text. AskSia is an AI court transcriber for law students that uses speech recognition with legal-vocabulary context, so terms like 'voir dire', 'habeas corpus', and 'subpoena duces tecum' transcribe correctly. It supports live capture of remote moot rounds on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Webex, microphone recording for in-person sessions, and uploaded MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, and MOV files of Supreme Court and appellate oral arguments. Up to 10 speakers are identified automatically, transcripts can be translated into more than 40 languages for LL.M. students, and the result exports as TXT, DOCX, SRT, or Google Docs. AskSia is a study and drafting tool, and is not a substitute for a certified court reporter.
Law school is full of audio you actually need to read: SCOTUS oral arguments, moot court feedback, mock trial cross-examinations, hour-long doctrinal lectures. AskSia handles legal vocabulary, multiple speakers, and long sessions, which is most of the work.
The model picks up terms like voir dire, habeas corpus, res ipsa loquitur, and subpoena duces tecum without mishearing them as everyday words. Latin phrases, motion names, and procedural terminology come through correctly.
AskSia identifies up to 10 distinct speakers in a single argument or moot round. Rename them after the fact to 'Bench', 'Petitioner', 'Respondent', or 'Witness', and the change applies to the whole transcript.
Use Browser Tab capture for Zoom moot rounds or SCOTUS oral argument streams. Use Microphone for in-person mock trial and class. Upload MP3 or MP4 files from your professor or a court website. One transcriber covers every kind of legal recording you study from.
Once an oral argument or lecture is transcribed, the AI assistant Sia can produce IRAC outlines, case briefs, lists of cases cited, or sample exam questions. The transcript becomes outline material for finals on the spot.
Pick Microphone for in-person moot court, mock trial, or class. Pick Browser Tab to capture a Zoom moot round or a Supreme Court or appellate oral argument recording. Or upload an existing MP3, MP4, or M4A file from your professor or a court website.
AskSia detects the source language automatically. Pick a target language for translation, useful for LL.M. and international students or comparative law work. AskSia identifies up to 10 different speakers automatically.
The transcript appears with timestamps and speaker labels. Ask Sia for an IRAC outline of the argument, a list of cases cited, or a clean export of one judge's questioning. Export the result as TXT, DOCX, SRT, or send to Google Docs for outlining.
Capture remote moot rounds and SCOTUS audio on the web, record in-person mock trial on your phone, or paste a court website URL. The library syncs everywhere.
On the web, AskSia opens as a split panel with the transcript on one side and the AI study assistant on the other. Capture a Zoom moot round in a browser tab, drop in a multi-hour deposition recording for evidence class, or upload an MP3 from oyez.org, and read along while the file processes.
Open the app, hit record, and AskSia transcribes the round in real time on your phone. Sessions sync to your Web App library when you sit back down at your laptop, ready to review and export for the bench memo.
Transcribe a Supreme Court or appellate oral argument from oyez.org or the court's own audio archive. Read along with the transcript while you listen, search for the moment a justice raised a specific issue, and pull quotes for case briefs and seminar papers.
Record your moot round in person or capture it through Zoom, then review your own answers and the bench's questions line by line. AskSia identifies up to 10 speakers, so each judge and each side appears with their own label.
Transcribe direct examinations, cross examinations, and closing arguments from mock trial sessions. Useful for self-critique, partner feedback, and refining specific lines of questioning before the next round.
Set your phone on the desk in Civ Pro or Con Law and AskSia transcribes the entire lecture. Ask Sia for an outline of the day, a list of cases mentioned, or sample exam questions on the topic.
Transcribe video and audio of oral arguments and panel discussions cited in your law review note or seminar paper. Search the transcript for an exact quote and export it cleanly into your draft.
