Engineered for Complexity. Validated by Practice.

In software, an edge case is a bug. In court, an edge case is a sanction or a dismissal.

Legal technology often fails because it treats court rules as data, not law. We are different. Our platform is designed by litigation teams who understand that a missed deadline isn't just an error. It's a malpractice risk.

The Courtroom Reality

  • • Catching "Individual Rules" vs Local Rules
  • • Handling pro se litigant exceptions
  • • Verifying magistrate judge referrals
  • • Identifying judge-specific scheduling nuances

The Engineering Reality

  • • Processing thousands of court documents
  • • Calculating deadlines accurately at scale
  • • Keeping data fresh and verified daily
  • • Delivering reliable API access

"We don't ship based on code coverage. We ship based on what survives a Partner's review."

How we work

01

Evidence-Based Development

Every feature is validated against real court documents and refined by practicing paralegals. We don't ship based on theory. We ship based on what actually works in real courtrooms.

02

User-First Design

We organize rules by litigation workflows (Motion Practice, Filing, Trial), not by arbitrary technical categories. Our paralegal team ensures the UX matches how lawyers think.

03

Quality Over Speed

We'd rather ship one court with 100% accurate rules than 94 courts with 80% accuracy. Lawyers can't afford hallucinations or outdated information.

Want to contribute?

We're always looking for experienced paralegals to validate our rule extraction and provide feedback on new features. If you've worked in litigation and want to help make court rules more accessible, we'd love to hear from you.
