Product UI
Command, Workbench, Discover, Word bridge — from the running Legal Studio, not design comps.
Advanced · research seat
Two different things share similar words. Confusing them mis-sells both.
Partner discovery interview for product priorities (Clock / Gate / Word / pain). Answers email research. No case data. No AI research run.
Precedent research dashboard: rank on-point cases, profile serial litigants, optional workspace spin-up for a docket. Fail-loud: web hits are UNVERIFIED until counsel citates. Not the front door — Advanced behind Command.
UX redesign
Information architecture change — not a cosmetic rebrand. Partner spine first; Advanced last.
Build waves
Non-goals: Filevine billing/SMS clone · Westlaw corpus · auto-approve AI · more peer accordions.
Position
They accelerate drafts and research. We control what can become a filing and keep the clock honest.
They finish the brief in Word. We own matter gates and package — export clean DOCX into Word.
They run case volume ops. We run litigation readiness: path, theories, cites, seal.
Next step
Partners: request access. Product leaders: complete the Title WorkBench interview — answers go to research.
