Parrot dramatically streamlines the deposition process for legal professionals by leveraging proprietary large language models (LLMs) specifically trained on legal and insurance vocabulary to deliver highly accurate transcripts immediately following a deposition versus the typical days or weeks. Its legally-compliant platform also helps address the growing shortage of court reporters as demand for court reporting services continues to grow each year.
“The improvements in LLMs are the next paradigm shift, akin to the internet and mobile. Parrot’s transformative technology will streamline and improve the litigation market and shape the future of the legal industry,” said Mike Dauber, General Partner at Amplify Partners.
