Applies to

Legal Professionals

Built In legal vocabulary

Yes. Dictalogic’s AI speech recognition engine powered by Microsoft Azure Cognitive Speech Services  is trained on domain-specific dictionaries that include legal terminology. Common legal terms, Latin phrases, case law vocabulary, and procedural language are included in the engine’s training data.

Custom legal vocabulary

In addition to the built-in legal vocabulary, you can add custom terms specific to your firm or practice area using Speech to Text Replacements. This is particularly useful for client names, matter references, local court terminology, and firm specific abbreviations.

Improving legal accuracy

For best results in a legal environment, use a dedicated USB headset or professional speech microphone, dictate in a quiet environment, and build up a library of Speech to Text Replacements for terms that are regularly misrecognised. Accuracy improves over time as the AI engine adapts to your specific vocabulary and speech patterns.
