Steno

Steno is a Los Angeles-based legal technology and litigation services company serving more than 1,200 US law firms with court reporting, remote and hybrid depositions, legal videography, interpreting, and record retrieval.

  description: The private, organization-scoped HTTP API behind Steno's first-party case-management integrations. The Steno-Litify
    Salesforce managed package is configured with a Steno API URL and an API Key that Steno generates per Salesforce Organization
    ID, and the same key model backs the Clio Manage integration. Steno publishes no public API reference, OpenAPI, or developer
    portal; the API host answers AWS API Gateway Forbidden / Missing Authentication Token on every anonymous discovery path.

  detail: Steno's API exists and is named on its own status page as "Core API services for Steno platform", but the only way
    to reach it is a Salesforce AppExchange managed package or a Clio App Directory listing whose key Steno issues per Salesforce
    Organization ID on request — there is no developer.steno.com or docs.steno.com host at all (both NXDOMAIN) and api.steno.com
    answers AWS API Gateway {"message":"Forbidden"} on every anonymous spec path.
