Citation-first drafts for small litigation teams

Summarize depositions in minutes, not hours.

LegalBrief gives small litigation teams a structured first draft of the testimony, with page-line citations that make important points easier to check against the source transcript.

Upload one searchable PDF. Review the finished draft against the transcript before using it.

One transcript. A clearer starting point.

LegalBrief organizes the initial pass so your team can focus on evaluating what the testimony means for the matter.

Check the source

Use page-line references to check material findings against the original transcript before using the draft.

Keep the source transcript in the review loop.

Key findings include page-line references when the transcript supports them. Use those citations to compare the draft with your retained transcript and the witness’s surrounding testimony.

Built to help you verify the important points.

Before a completed draft is stored, LegalBrief checks that required cited page-line ranges exist in the uploaded transcript. Findings, admissions, and potential inconsistencies must also include source excerpts that appear in the cited material.

These checks make it easier to compare the draft with the transcript. Your team still decides whether a statement is complete, important, and properly understood in context.

Who is LegalBrief designed for?

LegalBrief is designed for small litigation teams that want a simple, citation-first draft from one deposition transcript at a time.

Does LegalBrief replace legal review?

No. It produces a working first draft. A qualified professional should verify the citations, context, and conclusions before use.

What kind of transcript can I upload?

The current release accepts text-searchable PDF deposition transcripts. Image-only scanned PDFs are rejected before processing; run OCR first.

How are my files handled?

Transcript access is restricted by account controls and private storage. Files are processed by infrastructure and AI providers described in our Security & Data Handling page.
