The Secure Voice Assistant for Attorneys
Transform how you conduct client intakes and strategy sessions. CHELA confidentially records your meetings, extracts the critical facts, and automatically drafts structured memorandums so you can focus on the law, not typing.
Turn Talk into TasksYour Clients Trust You With Everything. Your Recording Tool Should Too.
When clients share the details of their case, they're trusting you with sensitive, privileged information. Every fact, every admission, every strategic discussion needs to be captured accurately—but most recording tools weren't built with legal confidentiality in mind.
Using consumer recording apps or cloud-based transcription services for privileged conversations creates risk. Third-party processors, unclear data policies, and servers you don't control can all undermine the confidentiality your clients expect and deserve.
Why Chela for client meetings? Because we understand that attorney-client privilege isn't optional. Record confidently, transcribe accurately, and search your entire case history—all while maintaining the confidentiality your practice demands.

Encrypted & Secure
Your client communications are protected by privilege—your recording tool should honor that. End-to-end encryption keeps sensitive information secure.
Why Generic Recording Apps Fail Attorneys
Consumer recording apps weren't built for legal practice. They send audio to third-party servers, store data in jurisdictions with unclear privacy laws, and their transcription services often retain copies of your recordings. When those recordings contain privileged client communications, you may be inadvertently waiving protections your clients depend on.
Even enterprise meeting transcription tools often miss the mark. They're designed for corporate workflows—sales calls, team standups, quarterly reviews. But legal practice is different. You need case-specific organization, the ability to search across years of client history, and absolute confidence in security.
Chela was built with privacy as a foundation. Your recordings stay encrypted, your transcriptions aren't used for model training, and you maintain complete control over your data. Search your entire case history instantly—and sleep well knowing your clients' trust is protected.
The practice of law is built on trust. Your clients share their most sensitive information because they trust you to protect it. Your recording tool should be worthy of that same trust.
