Cognition Legal is multimodal deposition intelligence for trial teams. Transcript, audio, and video read as a single source, so every signal in the testimony, whether said, meant, or missed, is surfaced, timestamped, and cited.
We kept seeing the same pattern: trial teams reviewing depositions for hours, often days, manually skimming for contradictions, tone shifts, and missed admissions. Senior attorneys caught what associates missed. Associates caught what the transcript hid. Either way, the bottleneck wasn't the case. It was reading the record.
The problem wasn't skill. The problem was that the deposition isn't a document; it's a multimodal record. An hour of video, audio, transcript, and exhibits, all referencing each other. Reading those streams separately is what makes review slow, subjective, and incomplete.
We built Cognition so trial teams can focus on strategy, not transcription. The platform reads the full record. The team reads the case.
Four principles that shape how Cognition is built, and what we won't compromise on.
Cognition runs on whatever modality you bring. Transcript-only is a complete analysis on its own: Q&A, contradictions, timeline, summaries. Add audio and we surface vocal stress and pacing. Add video and we read demeanor. The platform meets the record where it is.
Generated summaries that can't be traced are useless in litigation. Every flag, contradiction, and finding in Cognition opens to its exact page, line, and timestamp.
Analysis shouldn't fall off after the first deposition. The tenth should read as carefully as the first, and the hundredth as the tenth.
Cognition is built to surface, not to opine. We don't predict outcomes or substitute judgment. Strategy stays with counsel; we just make the record legible.
No pitch deck. No commitment. Bring a recent deposition. See what your last review missed.
