Steno-Flex is a unique, inexpensive stenotype, matching standard stenotype layout and key action. By using a flexible key with touch sensors, the Steno-Flex is able to simplify the design and mechanism of the stenotype, making the Steno-Flex lighter and less expensive than current stenotypes on the market.

Using modern materials and electronics the Steno-Flex, in combination with a computer, allows students and novices to develop stenogrphic techniques. Simply plug the USB cable into a computer, launch the open-source stenography software Plover, and you are ready to go. Online tutorials and guides are available.

The Steno-Flex is an effective device for people that want to learn stenography and develop real-time speech transcription. Stenographic techniques are evolving to become a standard solution for data entry, from simple keyboards to complex stenotype control.

Customizable

Steno-Flex will come in two sizes, small and medium, with an optional wood case and standard key configuration. In order to reduce cost, a student version will be offered without the wood case.

Steno-Flex is manufactured in the USA.
