Reading the record is your job.How you read the record is our job.
AdLitem turns a folder of case discovery — reports, transcripts, evaluations, hearing notes — into a navigable trial binder, a verified fact timeline, and a chat interface you can cross-examine. Every fact links to its exact source page. Nothing gets asserted that hasn't been checked.Your files never leave your computer. No AdLitem servers. No telemetry. Built by a practicing trial attorney.
Confidential by Design
You're right to be suspicious of AI tools asking for your case file
If you've held off on AI-assisted discovery review because you're not willing to send a client's abuse allegations, a psych evaluation, or a custody file to someone else's server — that instinct isn't paranoia. It's Rule 1.6, and it's the ABA's own read on this exact category of tool:Formal Opinion 512 warns that generative AI tools can disclose representation-related information to people outside the firm who were never part of the case.Here's what AdLitem does instead:
Your PDFs never leave your machine. They're read and processed locally — not uploaded to AdLitem, not uploaded anywhere.
Only extracted text is sent for AI analysis — not your documents — and it goes to a cloud account you own, under your own credentials.
AdLitem never sees it, never stores it, and has no server where it could be breached, subpoenaed, or leaked. There's nothing to compromise because there's nothing to hold.
Nothing trains a model. No telemetry, no analytics on case content, no exceptions.
Where processing happens is disclosed, not a black box — useful when a court, agency contract, or funding source asks.
This isn't a compliance badge bolted onto a sales pitch. The architecture is cross-checked against Model Rules 1.1, 1.6, 5.1, and 5.3, and against ABA Formal Opinions 477R (cybersecurity), 498 (virtual practice), and 512 (generative AI) — because it had to clear those before it could do anything else.
Cases Evolve. And so should you.
What happens when you drop in a case file?
Point it at the folder. Give AdLitem your case PDFs — DCP&P/DCFS reports, evaluations, transcripts, whatever you have. It reads everything and builds the structure the case actually has — a chronological timeline, a witness and exhibit map, where each party's position moved, and where the file contradicts itself.
Every fact is sourced. Click any claim in the binder and it takes you to the exact page — no "trust the AI."
Ask it anything. "What did the caseworker say about the last home visit?" — you get the quote and the page, checked against the source text before you ever see it, not generated and hoped for.
What you get:
Trial Binder — the case, organized, every claim clickable to source
Evidence Dashboard — fact collisions, exhibit/witness map, timeline
Ask the Case — a chat interface to your own discovery, source-verified
Proof Matrix — evidence mapped to the statutory elements you have to prove.
Service Chart — reasonable-efforts tracking, prong by prong
Bates Ledger— append-only, with optional stamping
