Born from a legacy of deposition reporting and strengthened by decades of innovation at InfraWare, Readback was created to merge proven expertise with modern technology that is reshaping how depositions are recorded and delivered.
A Legacy Meets Innovation
Readback was born from a simple idea: court reporting should serve attorneys, not slow them down. Backed by over 50 years of court reporting experience through Catuogno Court Reporting and the innovation of InfraWare, we combined proven expertise with forward-thinking technology to create something entirely new: Active Reporting. With four U.S. patents and decades of leadership in speech recognition and workflow automation, InfraWare built a platform designed to solve the challenges attorneys face every day.
Why Change Was Needed
For years, the legal industry has grappled with a shrinking pool of stenographers, unpredictable pricing, and delays that left attorneys waiting weeks for transcripts. Meanwhile, only top litigators (those able to pay steep premiums) could access real-time reporting. That imbalance raised a critical question: why should speed and clarity be reserved for a select few when every attorney deserves the same advantage?
Building a Better Way
The answer came from combining market insight with technical vision. InfraWare recognized that stenographers spent more time editing after proceedings than recording testimony itself. We set out to change that. Using our patented AI system, Scribebot Scarlett, testimony is captured in near-time, then refined by a team of human transcribers. Each deposition is supported by a Guardian, who manages exhibits, swears in witnesses, ensures compliance, and keeps the process running smoothly.
The Result
What emerged is a deposition service designed for today’s litigation environment: certified† audio and transcripts delivered the next business day, live viewer access during proceedings, and transparent flat-rate pricing. Attorneys no longer have to choose between fast or affordable because they get both. Readback blends innovation with reliability to deliver court-admissible† results that empower attorneys, streamline preparation, and improve outcomes for clients.
