SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps students produce a correct, exam-ready case brief in their preferred format by turning reading notes (or pasted case text) into a structured outline-ready summary without guessing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scaffolded brief writing: guides you section-by-section (Facts, Issue, Holding, Reasoning, Rule, Notes) with prompts so you write the brief, not just read a summary.
  • Drill-me holding-first mode: checks understanding by requiring you to state the holding first before proceeding.
  • Verification discipline: extracts holding/reasoning verbatim when you paste the case text, and otherwise flags uncertain lines for confirmation against the actual case.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to brief a case by pasting the case text and telling it your preferred brief format.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write a structured case brief for law school without guessing the holding?

To write a structured case brief without guessing, use a scaffolded workflow that guides you section-by-section and flags uncertain lines for verification against the actual case text.

What is the best way to extract the rule and reasoning from a pasted case text?

The best way to extract the rule and reasoning from pasted case text is to use a tool that pulls holding and reasoning verbatim, ensuring your legal notes are accurate and outline-ready.

Can I create a case brief if I only have the case name and no reading notes?

Yes, you can create a case brief with only a case name through scaffolded writing, which prompts you section-by-section and adds uncertainty flags for details you must confirm against the actual case.

How does a drill-me holding-first mode work for case brief preparation?

A drill-me holding-first mode works by requiring you to state the holding of a case first before proceeding, enforcing correct understanding and verification discipline during your brief preparation.

What format do I need to prepare case readings for automated student note-taking?

You can paste case text directly to enable verbatim extraction of the holding and reasoning, or simply provide a case name to trigger a guided, section-by-section brief writing workflow.

Why should I not write a case brief from memory for exam preparation?

You should not write a case brief from memory because it risks inaccuracies; a verification discipline workflow prevents this by flagging uncertain lines for confirmation against the actual case.
