Frequently asked questions

You asked, we answered

What is the new legal principals feature you are testing with California law?
This is our take on headnotes. Our priportiy knowldge graph helps identify legal principles and their application within cases. We started with California, but this tool will soon be available across our entire database. We are providing free access to this feature while it is in beta.
What is the difference between the new and classic search?
The new search is built on a completely rewritten platform, redesigned with cutting-edge AI models and incorporating insights from the past 18 months to better meet user needs and optimize performance and scalability. While the classic search remains effective, it is less advanced and does not offer Spanish or simplified language options.
What languages are available?
Summaries are available in both English and Spanish, allowing you to search and get results in either language.
