CaseBot™ Beta Release Notes
August 2026 Release
This beta release introduces the latest
generation of CaseBot, including a new agentic, multistep process for
generating responses. CaseBot creates a plan, runs multiple searches, reviews
original source documents, verifies the information found and then prepares its
response.
On a best-effort basis, CaseBot supports factual claims with
citations and verbatim excerpts from source documents. Select a citation to
open the full document and review the cited passage in context.
Specialist Skills
CaseBot includes eight specialist skills organized into two
categories.
Fact Development
- Fact
Narrative: Organizes what the documents show about a topic by issue.
Identifies what the record establishes and where information is
unavailable.
- Chronology:
Creates a dated, attributed and cited sequence of events for a matter,
topic or person. Identifies gaps in the available record.
- Entity
Map: Identifies the people and organizations connected to a topic,
their roles and their relative importance.
- Hot
Document Finder: Ranks documents as Hot, Warm or Notable based on
factors such as admissions, anomalies, awareness of wrongdoing and changes
in tone. Includes a source-based explanation for each ranking.
Case Preparation
- Deposition
Kit: Creates a witness preparation package covering the witness’s
background, prior statements, relevant documents, potential contradictions
and possible lines of examination.
- Claim
Analysis: Evaluates a single allegation from both perspectives and
provides a balanced assessment without reaching a conclusion.
- Request
Analysis: Breaks a request for production or subpoena into numbered
requests and sub-elements. Identifies potentially responsive documents for
each element and provides citations and a coverage summary.
- Record
Check: Breaks witness testimony into individual assertions and
classifies each as Supported, Contradicted, Mixed or Unsupported. Provides
the evidence supporting each classification.
Start a skill from the cards displayed in a new conversation
or from the Skills menu next to the message box. Users may also describe
the requested task in plain language.
