The courtroom may be where cases are decided, but long before trial, legal professionals face the grind of reviewing evidence. Hours of body-worn video, surveillance footage and interviews must be parsed and understood, a workload that keeps growing with every case.
That’s where Brief One for Justice comes in. Mentioned for the first time in April at Axon Week, Brief One for Justice is built specifically for prosecutors, defenders and legal staff, delivering AI-generated transcript summaries and identifies key moments for any video and audio evidence in a case. These insights help teams move through evidence faster while staying focused on the facts.

A smarter way to work through evidence
Instead of spending hours manually combing through recordings and transcripts, Brief One condenses the transcripts into clear summaries and highlights important events like Miranda warnings, field sobriety tests, and use-of-force incidents. Legal teams can instantly review the most critical information, spending less time in review mode and more time on strategy, advocacy and case-building.
Workflows optimized for attorneys
Brief One is designed around the realities of legal work. Attorneys don’t always review evidence in one sitting: they may start at intake, return days later, or hand a case to a colleague. Distinct evidence viewing modes streamline these workflows, making it simple to triage large volumes, zero in on key interactions, or regain context. By keeping everyone aligned, whether starting a new case, jumping back in after time away, or onboarding a colleague, Brief One minimizes redundancy and keeps cases moving forward.
Real results from the field
Agencies using Brief One are already seeing the difference. For high-volume teams, these time savings add up quickly — giving back critical hours that can be reinvested in courtroom preparation, legal research, and client advocacy.
Case review is now 4× faster — dropping from an hour per case to just 15–20 minutes.

Navigation designed for legal teams
Brief One was built with flexibility in mind. Whether scanning summaries, reviewing every AI-detected moment in one place, or diving deeper into transcripts, it adapts to how legal teams work best. Tools like the Moments Panel and filtering make it easy to pinpoint exactly what matters, keeping everyone aligned whether you’re starting a new case, jumping back in after time away, or onboarding a colleague.
