Court Reporters and Simultaneous Captioners

recording verbatim proceedings of courts, taking notes in shorthand or using a stenotype or shorthand machine that prints letters on a paper tape and providing transcripts of proceedings upon request of judges. If that's your week, this page is about your job.

The honest answer

This job is splitting in two: providing transcripts of proceedings upon request of judges is work AI now does quickly and cheaply, and asking speakers to clarify inaudible statements is work it can't touch.

Your move: what you can actually do about this ↓

Which half fills your week decides your exposure. The ledger below shows which rows you can move toward.

Your week, as this page understands it

Use verbatim methods and equipment to capture, store, retrieve, and transcribe pretrial and trial proceedings or other information. Includes stenocaptioners who operate computerized stenographic captioning equipment to provide captions of live or prerecorded broadcasts for hearing-impaired viewers. The job title says “court reporters” or “simultaneous captioners”: officially one job, two names. The real job is the part underneath: asking speakers to clarify inaudible statements. That is the thing someone has to be right about.

The exposed part of this job is specific, and we won’t pretend it is coming back. But court reporters and simultaneous captioners is not one task. It is 14 scored ones, and they are nowhere near equally exposed. The most durable of them, on this evidence, is asking speakers to clarify inaudible statements, and the ledger below shows exactly why.

Whole-job exposure score 48 out of 100 (4253 allowing for uncertainty): partial exposure, across 14 scored tasks. The number is the support for the sentence above it, not a headline about anyone’s future.

How we know this

What is measured: Every published task statement for court reporters and simultaneous captioners is rated on five dimensions: can a model produce the output, does the work need a body in a room, does it need a legally accountable person, does it depend on a person being trusted in the moment, and how much data exists. A published formula turns those five ratings into the score; the model never writes the number.

How the bar is built: Each task’s share of the bar is its published importance weight, so a task you do all day counts for more than one you do twice a year.

What is deliberately not here: a forecast of how many of these jobs exist in ten years. Where an official projection exists for a market we publish it with its vintage; where it does not, we leave the space empty rather than borrow the other country’s number.

Why this is shifting

The reason is boringly specific. Most of what is shifting here is reading one thing and writing another: transcripts of proceedings upon request of judges in, a record out. The rows above are exactly that shape: providing transcripts of proceedings upon request of judges and proofreading transcripts for correct spelling of words. What it cannot do is be there in the room, and that is still where speakers get done. Which is why this page talks about your tasks changing, not your job ending.

Your move

Over a pint: what I’d tell you if you were my friend

Your week is splitting in two, and which half fills it is the whole question. Providing transcripts of proceedings upon request of judges is going; asking speakers to clarify inaudible statements is not.

So, given all that: 38% of this job's task weight sits in rows the software is already learning, 26% in rows that change shape rather than disappear, and 36% in rows it is nowhere near. That is the position, measured across 14 scored tasks. It is not a forecast about you.

The occupation is an average and you are not, so the first job below is finding out where your own week actually sits.

This week: one thing

Print the task ledger above and put your own hours next to each row. Roughly, in pen, in one sitting. Then look at which group your hours actually pile up in. Twenty minutes, this week.

What you end up holding
your own week, on one page, sorted into what is shifting and what is not
How long it takes
about twenty minutes

If printing it isn’t practical: Read the rows off this page and write the same list on the back of an envelope. Same twenty minutes, same page, and it works just as well said out loud to someone who knows the job. The point is your hours next to the rows, not the paper it is on.

Over the next 90 days

Volunteer toward the durable end, visibly. Over the next ninety days put your hand up for the work in the bottom group (asking speakers to clarify inaudible statements) and let people see you doing it. Not a new project: the same job, with your mix deliberately tilted. The point is that when the rota or the reorganisation comes, the version of you people picture is the one doing the part that stays.

Over the next 12 months

Claim a specialism at the durable end and let the other end go. Over a year, deliberately become the person who handles asking speakers to clarify inaudible statements, and deliberately stop being the first choice for the rows in the top group. That trade costs something, because the exposed work is often the comfortable work. Decide it on purpose rather than by drift. Before you pay for anything, use CareerOneStop - Find local training. It is free, it is the Labor Department's own service, and it is listed below with the rest of the free routes.

The roads out of here, and why I am not sending you down them

I looked at the obvious moves out of this job, and here is what I found.

I checked the 12 nearest US occupations to court reporters and simultaneous captioners (nearest by the work that AI is not taking, not by job title), and none of them survived. The closest was bailiffs: only about 5% of its durable work is work you already do and it pays 21.8% less. Your own job splits about 38/62: that share of the list sits in the top exposure band and the rest does not. On this evidence the honest move is inside the job rather than out of it. Become the person who owns “ask speakers to clarify inaudible statements”, and let the exposed end go.

How that was checked: this job was compared against all 830 US occupations in this release on their official task statements, and the 12 nearest were examined one by one. A move that turns on an industry, an employer or a qualification rather than on the work itself will not show up in a check like that. And this release carries no licence register, so anything you are weighing needs that looked up separately.

3 moves I checked and rejected

These are the obvious-looking jumps. They are here with their reasons rather than quietly dropped, because the ones that fail are worth knowing about. It is one less thing to turn over at night.

  • Bailiffs

    Why it looked obvious: It came up as a near neighbour on the work AI is not taking: you already log and store exhibits from court proceedings, and their equivalent is to screen, control, and handle evidence and exhibits during court proceedings. Across both published task lists that is about 5% of the durable work in that job.

    Why I am not recommending it: Almost none of it is work you already do: about 5% of the durable side of that job. That is a different job, not a next step. It is a pay cut, in those words: $56,600 against your $72,420, 21.8% less (OEWS May 2025 (both)). Retraining to earn less is a decision, not advice.

    Look at that job’s page anyway →

  • Judges, Magistrate Judges, and Magistrates

    Why it looked obvious: It came up as a near neighbour on the work AI is not taking: you already type court orders for judges, and their equivalent is to supervise other judges, court officers, and the court's administrative staff. Across both published task lists that is about 5% of the durable work in that job.

    Why I am not recommending it: Almost none of it is work you already do: about 5% of the durable side of that job. That is a different job, not a next step. The pay gap is the market pricing a barrier: $153,990 against your $72,420 is 2.13× (OEWS May 2025 (both)), and you would be crossing it holding about 5% of their durable work. A gap that size with an overlap that small is a wish, not a route.

    Why I am not recommending it: Almost none of it is work you already do: about 4% of the durable side of that job. That is a different job, not a next step.

What I’d stop worrying about

A friend tells you what not to spend fear on. This is that list.

  • The headline number you read somewhere

    The big “X% of jobs” figures are about the whole economy, not about you. The number that describes your job is on this page: 38% of its task weight, across 14 scored tasks. Every row behind it is printed above with the source. Check ours; ignore theirs.

  • The whole-job doom story

    Nothing on this page says this job ends. It says the mix inside it moves. Half the rows above are unchanged or changing shape, and the plan is about which half your week sits in. That is a very different problem, and a solvable one.

  • Panic-buying a course

    Do the twenty-minute sorting exercise first. Most people who buy a course before they have done it buy the wrong one, and the free services listed below will tell you the same thing without charging for it.

  • The “obvious” next job everyone suggests

    I checked the obvious moves and most of them did not survive. The reasons are printed with the routes above, including the pay and the gate. A move that fails on the numbers is worth knowing about so you can stop turning it over at night.

Questions people ask about this job

Will AI replace Court Reporters and Simultaneous Captioners?
Not as a job, but it is already doing parts of the work. Across the 14 official task statements scored for Court Reporters and Simultaneous Captioners (United States, SOC 27-3092), 38% of the importance-weighted core work is made of tasks today's AI could already do most of. The overall exposure score is 48 out of 100 (range 42–53, band: partial). That is a statement about tasks, not about headcount: this measures what AI could do, not whether any employer adopts it, whether the law allows it, or whether doing the routine parts faster creates more demand for the human parts. Figures are from release 2026-q4.1.
Which tasks in “Court Reporters and Simultaneous Captioners” can AI already do?
The highest-scoring tasks in release 2026-q4.1 are: “Provide transcripts of proceedings upon request of judges, lawyers, or the public” (81/100, very high); “Proofread transcripts for correct spelling of words” (81/100, very high); “Type court orders for judges” (81/100, very high). Each score comes from five published 0–4 ratings turned into a number by a published formula, and each carries the model's one-sentence reason on the page.
Which tasks in “Court Reporters and Simultaneous Captioners” stay human?
About 36% of this job's task weight sits in work that scores low for AI exposure. The lowest-scoring tasks in release 2026-q4.1 are: “Ask speakers to clarify inaudible statements” (9/100, minimal); “Take notes in shorthand or use a stenotype or shorthand machine that prints letters on a paper tape” (11/100, minimal); “Respond to requests during court sessions to read portions of the proceedings already recorded” (28/100, low). Low scores usually mean the task needs a body in a room, a legally accountable human, or trust built in real time. Those are the three things the scoring rubric treats as gates rather than obstacles.
What should someone working in “Court Reporters and Simultaneous Captioners” do about AI?
Start from the ledger rather than the headline: 38% of this job's weighted core work is exposed, and roughly 36% is not. The practical move is to spend more of your week on the tasks that score low, the ones above, and to get fluent at directing AI through the tasks that score high, because those are the parts that change whether or not you are ready for them. This page does not predict your job, and nothing here is career advice tailored to you: the score describes the occupation, not the person.
How is the AI exposure score for Court Reporters and Simultaneous Captioners calculated?
Each official task statement for the occupation is rated on five published 0–4 dimensions (output replicability, physical embodiment, licensed accountability, real-time human trust, and data availability) by claude-opus-5 using scoring prompt task_scoring_v1.0. The model never writes the score; a published formula turns the five ratings into a 0–100 number, so every score can be recomputed by hand. The occupation figure is the importance-weighted mean across 14 scored tasks. The prompt, the rubric, the formula and the full dataset are published at https://futureproof.collab365.com/method and https://futureproof.collab365.com/data/2026-q4.1 under CC BY 4.0.

  • 1 of this occupation's scored task statements carry a score that was measured under a different occupation's context, because the statement is shared between jobs and has only been scored once so far. Each one names the occupation it was measured under in the free routes below; none is presented as a measurement for this job.
  • Task clusters are not derived in this release, so the task-cluster field is empty and no Collab365 Space routing is attached to this occupation yet.

Figures on this page come from release 2026-q4.1, published 2026-08-05. Every release keeps its own permanent address, so a figure you cite in March is still there, unchanged, in November.

The plain-English wording on this page is assembled directly from the task statements and the published ratings, not written by hand for this occupation. That is why it is specific, and it is also why we say so.

The routes and free resources further up are today’s, not the release’s (last reviewed 2026-08-05). A route is an offer, not a historical fact, so it moves on its own clock.
