CaseOps
CaseOps for solo advocates

Operate like a 20-lawyer practice. Alone.

The same matter-graph workspace the firms use — tuned and priced for the advocate on a laptop at night and in court by morning. One login replaces five subscriptions and a paper diary.

What a solo is running today

Five tools. Five logins. One paper diary the clerk cannot read.

The work is the lawyer's. The infrastructure is no one's. Something is always lost.

Research subscriptions

One subscription for research; another to download PDFs; citations pasted by hand.

Word + email

Drafts live in a Downloads folder named 'bail 3 FINAL v2'.

Case diary

Paper. Sometimes a shared Google Sheet. Never in sync with the court cause list.

Billing

Tally, an Excel invoice template, or a WhatsApp 'kindly pay' reminder.

Real cost: the lawyer does the work of five people before 10 am — and the work is administrative, not legal. CaseOps removes the administrative half.
The AI angle

The associate you couldn't afford to hire.

AI takes the clerical half of a solo's day — first drafts, citation chasing, chronology assembly, invoice reconciliation — and hands it back as reviewable work. It never replaces the lawyer's judgment; it removes the work that kept the lawyer from doing judgment.

First drafts in minutes

Grounded drafts with inline citations from the matter record. You review and sign; you don't assemble.

Research like a big firm

The same corpus the firms retrieve against — Supreme Court + high courts — embedded and searchable.

Hearing pack on open

Chronology, last order, proceeding directions, affidavit prep, mock-hearing prompts, and coach feedback compile from your own matter record.

Refuses to fabricate

Never invents a case law citation, never invents a fact. Placeholders and explicit refusals when evidence is thin.

What a solo gets back

Two to three hours of first-draft assembly. An hour of citation chasing. Forty minutes reconciling the diary and cause-list. Twenty minutes building a hearing pack. Every one of those is clerical. Every one is now a few minutes of review at best — time that goes back to clients, or back to the family.

Agentic help: cause-list reconciler exists as an on-demand action today — click to run against tomorrow's listings. Automated nightly scheduling via Cloud Scheduler ships in the next release. Corpus ingest runs on its own so your research stays current. Every substantive step is yours to accept.
Case diary + hearings

Morning opens with the day already compiled.

Sign in. See today's listings as soon as they're imported into your matter record. One-click hearing pack for the matters you are arguing — chronology and last order already pinned. The bench-name resolver links each scheduled judge to their profile (Supreme Court + Delhi HC live; other High Courts as their judge data lands).

Cause-list import — manual today, automated incrementally

Today: cause-list entries are imported per matter (paste / API / nightly job for courts with a lawful adapter). The bench resolver normalises 'Justice X & Justice Y' rosters into clickable judge profiles with the high-quality confidence floor. New court adapters ship only after source-readiness proof.

Hearing pack compile

Chronology, last order, proceeding directions, oral points, and source-backed bench context assembled from the matter record. Under a minute.

iPad-ready in court

The UI stays legible on a 9-inch screen. No hover-only actions. No surprise modals.

Drafting with citations

A first draft before the second coffee.

Open a matter. Pick a template — bail, quashing, reply to summons, §34 petition. Add a focus note. Press Generate. Get a draft with inline citations to named judgments and fact placeholders for anything not in the record.

Never a fabricated citation

Inline citations resolve to named authorities. Nothing is invented. Fact gaps render as placeholders for you to fill.

Statute attribution kept clean

BNSS vs BNS clamped; Arbitration Act sections attributed by the right subsection; no cross-statute confusion.

Reviewer findings block

At the foot of every draft: open fact placeholders, citation coverage, statute checks. A 30-second pre-filing sanity pass.

What a solo typically saves

2–3 hours of first-draft assembly, plus an hour of citation chasing, per bail or quashing. That is a billable afternoon back, every day.

The review is still yours. The clerical work isn't.

Appeals + bench-aware drafting

Bench-aware appeal preparation.

When the listing's bench is resolved and relevant decisions are indexed, appeal preparation can use that source context. Limited coverage stays visible. Only source-verified statute provisions are available for attachment; catalog coverage remains incomplete.

Source-based
Judge references
Use available indexed decisions; missing history is not inferred.
Verified only
Statute citations
Unverified catalog entries cannot be attached as verified legal evidence.
Alias-aware
Bench matching
Known aliases resolve to canonical judge records; unresolved names stay visible.
0
Outcome forecasts
Bench-aware drafting stays on citation selection, source context, and limitation notes.

Bench-specific authorities

When the next listing's bench is resolved, drafting can use indexed authorities from that bench. Missing or weak history is disclosed as a limitation.

Verified statute references

Attach available verified provisions as cited, opposing or contextual references. Inspect the exact source version; catalogued does not mean verified.

Argument completeness, not forecasts

The Appeal Strength panel flags per-ground citation coverage and weak-evidence paths. The advocate decides; the system stays on source-backed preparation.

Research

Judgment research.

Search indexed authorities by legal issue and inspect the returned sources. Ranking supports research; it does not establish that a decision applies to your matter.

Source-linked
Judgment references
Inspect citations and available provenance.
Voyage
Embedding pipeline
Production retrieval uses voyage-4-large embeddings.
Reranked
Research results
Cross-encoder ranking supports source-based review.
Not certified
Corpus quality score
No representative legal-retrieval rating is claimed here.

Phrase the issue

Search with issue phrases or keywords, then inspect the authority, jurisdiction and source context of each result.

Tenant-private annotations

Flag or shortlist an authority for your matter. Annotations travel with the matter, not you.

Refuses to invent

If your query sits outside the corpus, you get an explicit no-result — not a fabricated citation.

Billing + recoveries

The invoice goes out with payment tracking.

Matter invoice PDFs, GST/TDS adjustments, partial payments, write-offs, and audit are live. Pine Labs payment collection remains disabled until UAT credentials, webhook evidence, settlement/refund/dispute proof, and founder go/no-go are complete.

Time → invoice → paid, without re-keying

Log time from the matter. Draft the invoice. Send. Get paid. Every state change on the audit trail.

India GST on the line item

GST on the invoice row. Monthly report exports to the format your accountant already uses.

Partial payments + write-offs first-class

Not a free-text note. Every recovery state is a real record.

The practical win

Solos get a cleaner recovery workflow: invoice, payment state, write-off, and audit are in the matter record. External payment links remain provider-gated until UAT evidence is complete.

Pricing

Priced for a practice of one.

Early access means pilot pricing. The full rate card firms up after we understand how a solo actually uses the product. Lock in pilot terms now.
