Intake Call Recording and Transcription for Law Firms

The intake summary captures the facts. The recording captures the tone. When an attorney needs to understand whether the caller was distressed or calm, the recording provides context no summary can.

Every AI intake call is automatically recorded and transcribed. The recording captures the full audio of the conversation — including the caller's tone, emotion, and exact words. The transcription provides a searchable text version. Together, they give attorneys complete context for follow-up: the structured intake summary provides quick facts, the transcript provides exact language, and the recording provides emotional context.
