Recorded evidence, transcribed the way courts read it.

Subtitled turns recorded evidence into a court-format transcript: body cam and dashcam footage, police interviews, 911 calls, jail calls, voicemails and recordings in other languages. Correct the draft against the recording in your browser, then download a searchable Court PDF on Letter paper with 25 numbered lines a page, a caption page, timestamps and a transcriber's declaration to sign, or an editable Word file ($5.00 per hour of recording, on top of the $0.25 transcript), with Social Security and card numbers masked to their last four digits. The video never leaves your computer. The transcript costs $0.25 per hour of audio and the court-format files $5.00 per hour of recording, with no subscription.

Questions

Can Subtitled make a transcript for court?

Yes. It drafts the transcript, lets you correct it against the recording, and exports a court-format PDF with numbered lines, a caption page and a declaration for the preparer to sign.

Is it certified?

No. It is a machine draft checked by a person. California Rule of Court 2.1040(b) says the transcript of a recording offered in evidence need not be certified; other courts may differ.

Who uses it?

Attorneys, paralegals, public defenders, self-represented parties, investigators and journalists working with recorded evidence.
