Built from the public record

Every opinion comes from public sources — Harvard's Caselaw Access Project, CourtListener, and court websites — combined into a single, searchable library of U.S. case law.

Search first, AI ranks second

A fast keyword search pulls every potentially on-point case. The AI then orders them by relevance and explains why each one made the list — and the full opinion is always one click away.
