Legal dictation, transcription, speech recognition...

Legal AI-scribe document creation in one platform
SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant brings ambient legal AI into the existing Philips SpeechLive platform, giving law firms one place to record, dictate, upload audio, transcribe, generate legal documents and review work before it is finalised.
It supports legal teams working from Windows or Mac, in the office, from home or across multiple locations, without forcing lawyers, typists and assistants into separate systems for dictation, speech recognition and AI document creation.
VoiceX supplies and supports legal firms across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and the greater APAC region.
SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant is an optional module for the SpeechLive Cloud Dictation Workflow Solution.

One place to create, check and finalise legal documents
SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant brings dictation, transcription, speech recognition and AI-generated documents together in one simple platform, so lawyers, typists and legal assistants can check the audio, transcript and final document before anything is approved or sent.
One solution for document creation
Bring dictation, legal speech recognition, audio transcription and legal AI document creation into one browser-based workflow, securely hosted in Australia and compatible with Windows and Mac.
From audio to structured documents
Turn client meetings, teleconferences, dictations, witness interviews, court recordings and matter discussions into structured legal documents based on your firm's custom templates.
Keep people in control
The original audio, verbatim transcript and AI-generated document remain together within the SpeechLive workflow, so work can be checked by the author, legal assistant, PA or typist before it is downloaded or entered into your document management system.
Create legal documentation directly into your customised template
SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant supports the full path from spoken words to reviewed document output — all in your custom style and template format.
Capture or upload audio
Record a dictation, meeting or conversation using a dictation recorder, dictation microphone or the included SpeechLive Mobile app.
Create the transcript live or deferred
Use SpeechLive speech recognition and transcription tools to create a verbatim transcript from the source audio.
Generate the document
Use SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant to create a structured legal document from the same audio source.
Review, finalise and export
The author, legal assistant, PA or typist can check the audio, transcript and document before the work is approved and finalised.
One audio source.
Multiple legal outputs.
A single recording may contain instructions, client history, advice, next steps, matter context and follow-up actions. With SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant, the same audio can produce different document outputs, such as a file note, attendance note, case summary, witness note, memo, letter, email or affidavit draft.
Rather than separating the audio, transcript and AI document into different tools, SpeechLive keeps the job together so the team has a clearer view of the work being created.
Show the complete job, not just the final document
More than just a legal AI scribe. SpeechLive manages your audio, transcript and review workflow from one interface, allowing your team to work from any location — fully connected and in control.
Dictation and audio management
SpeechLive allows users to create and upload dictation and audio from various sources, including dictation and meeting recorders, as well as the SpeechLive Mobile app.
Seamless workflow for teams
The SpeechLive Worklist allows authors, connected typists and admins to generate, review, edit and finalise documentation. See the status of each job and be notified of new and completed work.

Why choose between dictation and an AI scribe?
Most AI scribes are built for one job: listening to audio and producing a draft note or summary.
SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant is different because it sits within a broader document-creation platform.
Lawyers can dictate and send audio for transcription, use speech recognition directly in applications, or automatically create templated legal documentation with AI. Legal assistants, PAs and typists can remain involved in checking, correcting and completing the work, or use the included transcription tools when required.
SpeechLive allows firms to create a scalable solution that gives power users advanced tools, while keeping things simple for users who only need dictation and transcription — all on one platform.
A better fit for legal teams
- Familiar dictation and transcription workflow for easier adoption.
- Proofing of AI-generated documentation against the original audio and transcript.
- Flexible licensing to scale SpeechLive features for each user.
- One solution for traditional dictation, transcription, speech recognition and legal AI document creation.
Australian hosting and SpeechLive security approach

SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant suits individual lawyers and larger firms that want a practical way to bring AI into legal document creation without replacing the people and processes that already protect document quality.
Firms using traditional transcription workflows
A strong fit for firms that already use dictation workflows for authors, typists, legal assistants or PAs to create and review legal documents.
Firms looking beyond stand-alone AI tools
Useful for practices that want AI document creation connected to audio, transcript, workflow and review rather than sitting in a separate system.
Teams working across locations
Ideal for firms that need browser-based access from Windows or Mac, with support for office, home and multi-location work.
