Our Solutions.

Providing a reliable and accurate court record is a fundamental tenet of a fair and transparent justice system. Yet the accuracy of a transcript or digital recording ultimately relies on the quality of the sound heard within the courtroom.

That’s why For The Record’s engineers are continuously developing the most advanced solutions to negate environmental and audio distractions that can adversely affect the ability to hear. Our justice solutions are designed to “hear” better than the human ear, recording exactly what is said—and how it is said.

Our configurations of patented and proprietary hardware and software create courtroom acoustics that facilitate clear, natural, and comfortable communications between parties—and optimize the intelligibility of the spoken word.

Our solutions include AV installations and audio design that improve recording capacity, quality, and playback with the gold standard in digital court recording, FTR Gold.

For The Record algorithms strip background noise; overcome distortion and reverb; and improve signal-to-noise ratio—refining audio for even clearer sound and more accurate digital records.

For The Record created the industry standard in recording solutions for courtrooms—and we are now elevating the standard in the cloud.
