Steno has been named a Top Solution, Leader, Momentum Leader, Best Overall, Best Business Partner, and Best Use of AI in the Theorem Legal Marketplace Best Legal Tech Spring 2026 Awards. That’s a total of six badges across the Litigation Support / Court Reporting category.

The Theorem Legal Marketplace Best Legal Tech Awards are a quarterly, data-backed recognition program that evaluates legal technology providers across every major legal function and category. Setting them apart from other industry awards is the fact that there’s no self-nomination process. Every honoree is selected through verified buyer feedback, platform usage analysis, and market impact assessment. The results reflect what users in leading legal organizations think of the tools they rely on.

The program draws on insights from partners, including the Corporate Legal Operations Consortium (CLOC) and the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC), two of the most respected networks for in-house and legal operations professionals.

Steno was recognized across six distinct criteria: overall performance, market leadership, growth momentum, business partnership, AI capabilities, and a top solution designation. Together, they reflect what we've been working toward: a court reporting and litigation services platform that legal professionals can count on across every dimension of their work.

This recognition comes on the heels of Steno's $49 million Series C, and it's hard not to see the two as connected. The thesis behind that investment is that Steno occupies a position most legal tech companies can't replicate. We’re a company that operates as both a world-class services provider and a technology company, living inside litigation workflows every day.

That proximity produces something software-only competitors can't manufacture, including AI capabilities built on a hard-won understanding of how litigation actually works. The Theorem awards, determined entirely by verified users, suggest that legal professionals are already recognizing this distinction and are excited for what comes next.

Court reporting has historically been an underserved category in legal technology. The firms and legal departments that have modernized their approach to deposition services, transcript delivery, and litigation support have seen the difference. This recognition is, in part, a reflection of that shift, and of the legal professionals who pushed for something better.

We're proud of these awards. More than that, we're proud of the clients who trusted us enough to tell Theorem's network about their experience. This recognition belongs to them as much as it does to us.
