The questions reporters ask us most. If yours is not here, just reach out.
No. It works alongside Eclipse, Case CATalyst, and the rest. StenoDesk handles the business around the transcript: jobs, billing, proofing, files, and your team. You still write and edit in your CAT tool, and the glossary exports right into your dictionary.
Court reporters who run their own book of business, the scopists and proofreaders who edit for them, and the agencies and firms that manage several reporters. If you juggle deadlines, agency rate sheets, and editors, it was built for you.
StenoDesk is invitation only. Use the request form or write to hello@stenodesk.com, tell us a little about your work, and we will get you set up personally. Every invitation includes a two month free trial of the full workspace.
They read the final ASCII line by line against your house style, verify each issue before flagging it, and separate clear fixes from items you should double-check against the audio. They never change what a speaker said. You stay in control of every edit.
You set up each client's rate sheet once: original, copy, expedite tiers, rough draft, realtime, per diems, and overtime. StenoDesk computes the totals from the job and produces an itemized invoice you can send.
Yes. Invite the scopists and proofreaders you already work with by email. Assign a job, share only the files they need, and follow their work and their invoices from your dashboard. Payment stays directly between you and them.
No. Bring your whole team at no charge. Every scopist and proofreader you invite gets a full account of their own, free: their assignments, the files you share with them, the proofing tools, and invoicing back to you. There is no seat count and no per-editor fee, so it costs you nothing to work with the people you already trust.
Gmail and Outlook today, with more on the way. You can create a job straight from a notice email, and your deadlines stay in sync with the calendars you already use.
Every record is scoped to your account with row-level security, and files are stored privately with access tied to your roles. Transcripts and client data are never shared between users.
StenoDesk is invitation only right now, and every invitation includes a two month free trial of the full workspace. Editors join free, and plans are month to month after the trial. We walk you through the options when you join; see plans for how it works.
Yes. Your data is yours. Invoices, glossaries, and reports export, and we will never hold your work hostage.
