Privileged & Confidential — Attorney Work Product

Hearings, calls and scans in.
Structured legal reports out.

CAPABILITIES

Built for how matter files actually arrive

Audio, dictation, scans, exports, spreadsheets — one pipeline from raw source to a report you can file, with the privilege picture under your control.

Live hearing capture

Real-time local transcription with word timestamps. Non-speech gaps are tagged [PAUSE 3.1s] and [NOISE -38 dB], low-confidence speech is flagged (unclear) — so you can see what a recording cannot prove.

OCR & folder ingest

Drop in files or a whole folder — scanned correspondence, PDFs, exports, spreadsheets. Text is extracted locally and queued; new files are picked up automatically while you work.

Privilege classification

Every output carries the classification you set — Attorney Work Product, Internal or Discoverable — with matter, client, jurisdiction and author stamped in the header.

Jurisdiction aware

Switzerland (DE / FR / IT-speaking), European Union, Germany, France, Italy, United Kingdom, United States — the register and terminology follow the forum you pick.

Legal prompt library

Reusable, versioned prompts per task — chronology, witness summary, issues memo, discovery review. Add matter-specific notes without touching the template, and save new prompts as you go.

Language & register

Output in DE, FR, IT or EN, and choose the register: court / formal, client-facing or internal working. Language detection runs on the source material first.

Redaction suggestions

PrivilegeScribe flags names, contact details and identifiers it would redact before a document goes out. You decide — nothing is removed automatically.

Local audit trail

Every run records matter, sources, prompt, output file and timestamp in a local log — a defensible record of how a report came to exist.

Matter folder routing

Save straight into the matter folder or to the desktop, with predictable file naming, and move processed sources out of the intake queue automatically.

HOW IT WORKS

From live room to filed report

Four steps, no external services, no matter data leaving the machine.

STEP 1

Capture

Record the hearing or call with the local live-hearing recorder. Annotated transcript lands in the hand-over folder automatically.

STEP 2

Collect

Add the recordings, scans and exports you already have. OCR and text extraction run locally; new files drop into the queue as they arrive.

STEP 3

Control

Set matter, client, jurisdiction, classification and register. Pick a prompt from the library and add matter-specific instructions.

STEP 4

Produce

Generate the report with the local model, review the redaction suggestions, then save it into the matter folder — logged, classified, ready to file.

PRIVILEGE & SECURITY

The safest place for client material is your own machine

Sending a client's hearing recording to a third-party AI service is a privilege and confidentiality question, not just an IT decision. PrivilegeScribe is built the other way round: the model runs on your hardware, the server binds to 127.0.0.1, and the application makes no outbound calls while processing a matter.

Firms that cannot accept any third-party processing at all can take the on-premises perpetual license and run the full stack inside their own perimeter, under their own backup and retention policy.

Swiss DSG EU GDPR Attorney–client privilege Retention under your policy

What that means in practice

  • No document, transcript or prompt is sent to any cloud AI provider — ever.
  • Local model runtime (Ollama) with a coder-grade model tuned for structured output.
  • Web interfaces bind to the loopback address, so nothing is reachable from the network.
  • Your material is never used to train or improve a model — there is no vendor-side copy.
  • Immutable local audit trail of matter, sources, prompt and output.
  • On-premises deployment available for firms with a no-third-party mandate.
PrivilegeScribe is a drafting tool. Every output must be reviewed by the responsible lawyer before it is filed or shared — see the notice below.

Questions firms ask us

Does any client material leave my machine?

No. Transcription, OCR and report generation all run locally, and the local services bind to 127.0.0.1. There is no cloud AI provider in the loop and no telemetry. Only the license check and payment go through Stripe; a license is validated once for the key and its seats.

Which model is used, and do I need a GPU?

A coder-grade instruction model running through Ollama, chosen for reliable structured output on long inputs. A GPU speeds generation up considerably; Apple silicon runs it comfortably without one. The first launch downloads the model once — after that everything works offline.

How accurate is the output?

Accurate enough to save hours, never accurate enough to file unreviewed. Annotated transcripts mark pauses, noise and unclear passages so you can see where a recording is weak, and redaction suggestions are exactly that — suggestions. The responsible lawyer reviews every output.

What counts as a seat, and can I move it?

A seat is one lawyer working in PrivilegeScribe, activated on one machine. Move a seat to a new laptop by deactivating the old machine, and add or remove seats any time in the — the change is prorated.

Can we pay by invoice instead of card?

Yes, for Firm, Chambers and On-Premises licenses. Email sales@privilegescribe.com with the firm name, billing address and number of seats, and we issue an invoice in CHF with a payment reference.

Is there a trial before we commit?

Yes. Download the trial launcher and run a redacted or synthetic matter locally, or book a demo and we will run a sample end to end with you. Evaluations are not limited in matters processed.

What happens to a subscription if we stop paying?

The license expires and the app stops accepting new matter runs; your local files, reports and audit trail stay exactly where they are. Nothing is deleted remotely — we have no copy.

Why a perpetual license instead of only subscriptions?

Because some firms cannot accept a dependency they cannot audit. The perpetual license ships the full source, runs entirely inside your perimeter, and only the optional maintenance plan (20% per year) buys ongoing updates and support.

See it run on your own matter shape

30 minutes, screen shared, using a redacted or synthetic sample. You keep nothing installed unless you want to.
