The Digital Era of Depositions

Smarter Tools for Stronger Outcomes

Remote depositions are no longer a pandemic workaround, but the new standard of modern litigation. Yet, for many attorneys and court reporters, consumer-grade video tools create more headaches than solutions. Poor audio, clumsy exhibit sharing, and security risks can compromise accuracy, waste valuable billable hours, and erode client confidence.

IST eliminates these barriers with a purpose-built digital deposition platform designed specifically for the legal industry. By combining courtroom-level security, crystal-clear multi-channel audio, and seamless exhibit management, IST equips legal teams to deliver faster, more accurate, and more cost-effective results. Clients who switch to IST have reported up to 53% lower invoice totals and annual savings exceeding $70,000 without sacrificing accuracy or speed.

Adapting to the Demand for Digital

Attorneys know every deposition carries weight. A missed word, a muddled recording, or a delayed transcript can shift the balance of a case. As litigation moves increasingly online, the risks of using generic video platforms are becoming clear:

• Blended audio makes key testimony indistinguishable.
• Unreliable exhibit sharing disrupts proceedings and causes costly delays.
• Lack of legal-grade security jeopardizes sensitive testimony.

These aren’t just technical inconveniences, but threats to courtroom success. And with stenographer shortages and an aging reporting workforce compounding the pressure, attorneys need more than a stopgap solution. They need a platform built for the realities of today’s legal environment.

IST delivers exactly that.
