For attorneys and legal professionals
Privileged conversations.Dictation that stays on your Mac.
You already dictate. This just writes it down correctly.
Into voicemail, to an assistant, on a call with co-counsel — the work has always been spoken first. What changes is that the client name, the matter and the terms of art come out spelled the way you spell them, without a cloud service in the middle.

The real friction
“Legal language requires precision. I need to type every word intentionally.”
Partners dictated to cassette tapes for thirty years and were not being imprecise. The precision happens in review, not in production. Typing from a blank page is a constraint wearing the costume of rigor.
The real problem with dictation for legal work has never been quality. It is that the words that matter most to a matter — a client's name, opposing counsel, a cited case — are exactly the words a general-purpose recogniser has never seen.
So it hands you a draft that reads almost right, and you spend the saved time repairing names. That is the tax this removes.

so the main issue here is that the indemnification clause in the original agreement doesn't actually cap liability, which means our client is on the hook for unlimited consequential damages if the project goes over budget, we need an amendment in place before they sign the statement of work

The indemnification clause contains no liability cap, exposing the client to unlimited consequential damages in the event of cost overruns. An amendment must be executed before the statement of work is signed.
Recognition runs on your Mac. The finished text is the only artifact, and it goes where you put it.
Where it fits
High-value moments.
Client correspondence
Speak the advice letter while the call is still live in your head. The client gets the real analysis, not the reconstructed version three days later.
Research memos
Dictate the findings while you are still in the materials. The written memo becomes a record of thinking you have already done.
Deposition summaries
Summarise testimony immediately after — spoken, sequential, in order. Edit a clean draft instead of reconstructing from notes.
Instructions to associates
Speak the theory of the case. They get your actual reasoning rather than an abbreviated written brief.
How it works
Three steps. One key.
Press a key. Speak.
One hotkey anywhere on your Mac. No app switching, no mode to remember.
It transcribes on device.
Your voice never leaves your machine. There is no cloud transcription path for it to leave through.
Your words land right.
The names and terms you actually use are already known, so the text arrives finished instead of needing repair.
Privacy
Your client's wordsnever reach a server.
Cloud dictation sends audio to a vendor. For privileged communication that creates a third-party record of the conversation itself — a transmission with real exposure under evidence rules and the rules of professional conduct.
Recognition here happens on your machine. There is no cloud transcription path for the audio to leave through, so there is nothing for us to receive, retain or be compelled to produce. Your vocabulary is yours, and we never pool it with anyone else's.
