In what ways has using AI helped you improve service delivery for underserved communities, particularly families who can’t afford traditional legal fees? “My practice is intentionally small, focused on defending kids charged with crimes. The cost savings from Rev help me keep my practice accessible to families who need help most. When assessing a case, I don’t have to think about the hours — and thus additional expense — it’s going to take to go through evidence, then get that evidence into a form that’s easily usable in court. Rev does that for me.
“More importantly, the ability to make same-day bail arguments and secure my client’s release up to a week faster is a huge improvement in service delivery. For a traumatized youth already struggling with an arrest, every hour of freedom matters. Rev allows me to provide a fierce defense and potentially get kids out of detention much faster.”
How do you evaluate the accuracy and reliability of Rev’s AI transcriptions in high-stakes legal settings? “In high-stakes legal settings, I don’t just rely on the paper transcript. The transcript is my initial reference, but I use the hyperlinks to the audio for the actual words. This feature is incredibly powerful. For example, if an officer testifies in court that “the sky was black,” but on their body cam footage, they said “the sky is blue,” I can use the hyperlinked transcript to find that exact point. I just click a button on my laptop, and it plays the audio for them. When they hear their own voice, they’re often forced to admit they were wrong. This makes me an unstoppable force for truth in the courtroom.”
