How Legal Teams Use WordsDigger to Find Key Testimony in Depo Transcripts in Seconds

The Problem: Depositions Are a Time Sink

As a paralegal or attorney, you know the frustration:

  • single deposition can span **200+ pages** of dense testimony.
  • Manually searching for a **critical admission** or **contradiction** wastes **4–6 hours per case** (2023 Litigation Efficiency Report).
  • Traditional tools like **Ctrl+F fail** with multi-format transcripts (PDFs, DOCX, scanned OCR files).

Example:

"Did the witness say ‘I wasn’t at the scene’ in their depo? Or was it ‘I don’t recall’?"

Finding this could mean **winning or losing a motion**.
