What’s New

Upload an audio file directly in an Assistant conversation or to Vault, and Harvey transcribes it automatically. The transcript is returned as a Word (.docx) file you can read, query over, and edit. Key features include:

  • Automatic speaker labels (”Speaker 1”, “Speaker 2”) and a timestamp at the start of each speaker's turn
  • Automatic language detection, so you don't need to specify the language
  • Support for M4A, MP3, WAV, WebM, FLAC, and OGG files, up to 2 hours per file
  • Two ways to correct a transcript: the Word editor side panel or a request to Assistant (for example, renaming a speaker label)

Why It Matters

You no longer need a separate tool or workflow to turn your audio files from depositions, client interviews, hearings, and calls into usable text. This feature brings transcription directly into Harvey, allowing you to transform a raw recording into a searchable, editable transcript without leaving the web app.
