Why this project

The Challenge & Goal

What was missing

Investigation teams were drowning in unstructured data - long interview recordings, scattered notes, and disjointed summaries. Manual transcription and statement preparation consumed hours, leaving investigators with less time for actual analysis.

What the client envisioned

They wanted a single, secure system that could automatically transcribe, analyze, and organize every piece of case information - while remaining compliant and private. The goal was to give investigators a workspace where insights surfaced automatically instead of being hidden in hours of audio.

Our focus

We set out to build an investigation tool that could handle real-world complexity - multiple speakers, sensitive content, and long audio files - while producing clean, accurate statements and summaries ready for review or export.
