Digital dictation changed where we dictated.
Speech recognition changed how we transcribed.
Legal AI changes what happens after the information is captured.
Instead of stopping at audio or transcription, SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant can use the information itself to help create the structured attendance note, matter summary, correspondence or other legal document you need.
Audio, transcript and AI-assisted legal document creation stay connected inside SpeechLive, making it easier to review the generated draft against the original source.

Follow the source from capture through document creation, human review and completion.
Record in the AI Assistant web workspace or upload an existing audio file. Add audio first, then select supporting documents, PDFs, images or written notes to provide matter context.


Choose the document structure and let Legal AI organise the relevant source information into the required legal draft using an available or custom template.
Review the generated document alongside the retained audio, transcript and supporting matter information before approving or relying on the draft.


Edit and approve the document yourself or keep legal assistants, PAs, reviewers or typists involved in the firm's existing completion process. Export reviewed documents as DOCX, PDF or TXT, or copy the text. Generated documents are also available in the attachments section of the SpeechLive Classic workflow.
Choose SpeechLive Legal Direct for real-time legal speech recognition at the cursor. Choose SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant to turn your spoken information and supporting files into structured legal document drafts. Both build on the SpeechLive workflow platform.
SpeechLive Legal Direct provides specialist legal speech-to-text. You control the wording and SpeechLive converts the spoken words into text rather than interpreting or restructuring what was said.
Legal AI works differently. Instead of reproducing every spoken word, it identifies the relevant information and organises it into the structure of the document you have asked it to create.
Use different templates to generate several documents from the same dictation and selected supporting sources. Each draft remains available in the Documents tab for review.
Dictation, consultation, meeting or recorded discussion
Matter documents and supporting information
Additional written or visual matter context
Legal AI uses the relevant source material and selected document structure to create a structured draft ready for human review.
Start with an available legal template, create and save your own structure, then refine the generated draft using natural-language instructions.
Select the document structure that matches the work you need to create.
Describe the structure you need in natural language, refine it in AI chat and save the template for future matters.
Use AI chat to refine sections, wording and structure, then review every generated change before approval.

Keep the source information connected to the job. Review the generated draft against the retained audio, transcript and supporting information before refining, approving, sending or finalising it.
Review the source → refine the draft → approve the final document.
