Your attendance note shouldn't wait until 10pm.
Voice dictation for Irish barristers.

You dictate into your phone after a consultation, on the walk back from court, or between cases. dictate& transcribes what you said and formats it into the right document type — an opinion, a brief, an attendance note. You review it, make any corrections by voice, and send it on.

Yes. Everything is processed and stored in the EU. Nothing goes to the US or outside the EU. If you're dictating privileged material, it stays on EU infrastructure in line with GDPR and the Bar of Ireland's data guidance.

Dragon Legal costs €300–500+ per licence, needs a desktop install, and takes weeks of voice training before it's usable. BigHand is built for large firms with IT departments. dictate& runs on your phone, works immediately, and costs a fraction of either. It also keeps data in the EU — Dragon routes through US servers.

Yes. You can record offline — on the walk to the car park, on the train, wherever. The audio sits on your phone and gets transcribed once you have signal again.

Opinions, briefs to counsel, attendance notes, case summaries, written submissions, fee notes, and correspondence to instructing solicitors. You don't need to specify the format — it picks up the document type from what you're saying.

Yes. It knows Irish citation formats — [2024] IEHC, [2023] IESC, neutral citations, statutory references, Latin terms. It also handles Irish accents, so you're not spending time correcting "res judicata" or "Ó Domhnaill v Merrick" after every dictation.
