Ministry of Justice
Justice Transcribe for probation meetings
Justice Transcribe summarised over 150,000 probation meetings
Problem
Probation staff needed to document meetings alongside their work with people under supervision. Meeting transcription and summarisation created an opportunity to reduce administrative work.
Approach
Staff used Justice Transcribe, an AI-enabled transcription and meeting summarisation tool. Internal product analytics recorded over 150,000 meetings summarised between 7 October 2025 and 12 February 2026. The ministry checked counting logic and usage trends before publishing the figures.
Results
Takeaway
Recorded usage established the volume of meetings processed. The associated time saving remained an illustrative calculation based on an assumed saving per meeting.
