About Legal Visor (Verbit)
Introduction
Legal Visor is a real-time AI deposition-intelligence platform built by Verbit, an AI transcription and captioning company founded in 2017 in Tel Aviv, Israel and now headquartered in New York. Verbit raised a $60 million Series C in November 2020 led by Sapphire Ventures, a $157 million Series D in June 2021 that made it a unicorn, and a $250 million Series E in November 2021 at a $2 billion valuation, while also acquiring captioning providers VITAC (2021) and U.S. Captioning Company (2022) to scale its transcription business. Legal Visor itself runs on Verbit's proprietary Captivate automatic speech recognition engine, trained specifically on legal language, and covers a deposition's full lifecycle: attorneys upload outlines and prior transcripts beforehand to set an intelligence baseline, the system live-transcribes testimony while automatically flagging admissions, inconsistencies, and follow-up opportunities during the proceeding, and afterward generates organized summaries and document-linked investigation leads.
Legal Research
Legal Visor is not a case-law or statutory research tool; its intelligence is scoped entirely to deposition and testimony content, not legal research.
Contract Analysis
Contract review is outside Legal Visor's scope; it is purpose-built for live testimony and depositions, not contract documents.
Document Drafting
Legal Visor does not draft legal documents from scratch, though its post-deposition summaries, chapter markers, and document-linked analysis give litigation teams organized source material for motion preparation.
Legal Translation
Verbit offers broad transcription and captioning services across many languages at the company level, but Legal Visor's own product materials do not describe a dedicated legal-translation feature.
Predictive Analytics
Legal Visor does not predict case or motion outcomes, but its real-time contradiction-flagging and "investigation opportunity" surfacing during and after testimony function as a lightweight, testimony-specific form of pattern detection rather than true predictive analytics.
Pricing
Verbit does not publish Legal Visor pricing; the product page directs prospective customers to an ROI calculator or a sales conversation, consistent with enterprise litigation-support pricing norms.
User Reviews and Ratings
No independently confirmed G2 or Capterra rating specifically for Legal Visor was found at review time; buyers should check current third-party review platforms directly given how new the product is relative to Verbit's broader transcription business.
Verdict
Legal Visor's real advantage is its parent company: Verbit's years of legal-specific transcription volume and proprietary ASR give its admission- and inconsistency-flagging a plausible accuracy edge over generic transcription tools. It is a narrow, deposition-specific tool rather than a general litigation platform, with pricing and independent user-review data both currently opaque — worth a direct sales conversation and reference check before committing.
