The new Philips SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant is designed for turning conversations into ready-to-review legal document drafts.
SpeechLive Legal significantly reduces the time needed to transform voice input into structured legal documentation, delivering consistent and high-quality drafts and featuring SpeechLive's built-in integrations with leading case management platforms such as Actionstep, Clio, iManage and NetDocuments, supporting existing billing, email and case management workflows.
The AI Assistant is powered by Speech Recognition Legal, a dedicated engine that recognizes legal terminology, case citations and phrasing that generic speech recognition tools often miss. It accurately transcribes consultations, case notes, depositions and other legal recordings. SpeechLive Legal then places key facts and relevant information into a system or custom template.
Users can select a preloaded template or generate a customized template on demand through the AI Assistant chat using natural language prompts, such as “Create a template for an attendance note.” The AI Assistant builds a structured template with the appropriate sections and placeholders, which users can refine and save to their personal library. This flexibility helps legal professionals create documents relevant to their jurisdictions.
Users can also upload supporting documents, PDFs and images. The AI Assistant extracts relevant information from these sources and the audio to populate the template and provide additional context for the draft.
“SpeechLive Legal brings speech processing to the next level,” said Dr. Thomas Brauner, CEO of Speech Processing Solutions. “The AI Assistant is built specifically for legal professionals who want to spend less time on documentation and more time on billable work, client service and strategic legal matters.”
By combining established workflows with legal speech recognition and AI-assisted drafting, SpeechLive Legal reduces routine documentation work while keeping professional judgment and human oversight at the center of the process.
SpeechLive Legal is built on the established Philips SpeechLive platform, trusted by tens of thousands of legal professionals worldwide to create, route and manage dictation, speech recognition and transcription workflows. It supports different legal document types, practice areas and established ways of working.
The Philips SpeechLive Legal AI Assistant will be available from August 12, 2026, in 19 countries across Europe, North America, Australia and South Africa. New customers can purchase a complete subscription bundle that includes the SpeechLive platform, Speech Recognition Legal and the Legal AI Assistant. Eligible SpeechLive customers can add SpeechLive Legal to their current subscriptions.

Pure Lithium Receives Australian Patent for "Lithium Metal Anode and Battery"6.8.2026 22:49:00 CEST | Press Release
Pure Lithium Corporation, a vertically integrated next-generation lithium metal battery technology company, today announced that the Australian patent office has granted the company a patent (AU2025271196) titled “Lithium metal anode and battery.” Australia mines roughly half of the world’s lithium, yet has no domestic battery production at all; every battery the country uses is imported. The granted patent is directed to ways in which Pure Lithium’s technology can change that. Rather than trying to catch up in lithium-ion, Australia can leapfrog the incumbent technology and establish a next-generation industry. As worldwide demand for batteries grows, every country capable of making batteries needs to be making them. That is Pure Lithium’s central goal: opening up markets around the world through battery technology that enables local, independent supply chains, keeping pace with demand and strengthening economies. China controls the lithium-ion battery supply chain and manufactures th
