Court Daemon is an independent project that builds searchable archives from public trial proceedings. Each archive starts from primary sources — courtroom video recordings or court reporter transcripts — and works them into a structured, navigable record.

Transcripts from video sources are processed through speech recognition, then reviewed and corrected across multiple passes to fix speaker attribution, misheard words, and overlapping speech. The result is substantially more accurate than raw automated output, but these are not official court transcripts.

Each archive includes full-text search, person indexes, evidence catalogs, and day-by-day navigation with links back to source video. If you want to find a specific moment, explore a witness's testimony, or just follow the trial from opening statements to verdict, the tools are here.
