AI agent for court reporters
Reporter Equipment Readiness Agent
Every job starts with a complete, working kit.
What it does
A dead battery or a missing cable in the middle of a deposition is a bad day. Reporters build their kit from memory and it fails when the job type changes. The day before each job, this agent builds a kit list from the job type, location and whether it is realtime. It reads battery logs, backup file status and software license dates, then flags what is missing or due. It asks the reporter to confirm items, reruns the list after updates and keeps going until nothing is flagged. The reporter approves the final list. Edge case: a job in another state needs an extension cord and a different adapter, which the agent adds from the location notes.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
