Our Story

Since 2010, we've built the industry's most accurate speech recognition technology, processing millions of hours of human speech to create AI models that consistently outperform the competition. But accuracy alone isn't enough. When a single phrase can win a case, break a story, or validate a hypothesis, you need more than just words on a page.


Legal teams building cases, journalists reporting stories, and researchers conducting interviews all share a common challenge: finding critical moments buried within hours of audio and video.

Our proprietary technology, along with human review, is a trustworthy foundation for high-stakes situations—creating transcripts that stand up in court, supporting Pulitzer-winning journalism, and validating groundbreaking research. We don't just help you find the needle in the haystack; we help you understand why it matters.

With features tailored to maintaining the record, Rev enables you to search, cite, and share with confidence. And with the highest security protocols available, we ensure confidentiality at every step of the process. In a world where AI often compromises accuracy for speed, we deliver both—preserving every word with the integrity your work demands while highlighting what truly matters.
