Where answers come from

Six kinds of source

Statutes and regulations

Federal law, all 50 states, DC and Puerto Rico, from CaseRead’s public law database. Looked up when you ask, so you read the current text, not a stored copy.

Case law

Opinions from the Free Law Project, read in full before they’re cited. A question about a state searches that state’s appellate courts; a federal question searches the Supreme Court and the courts of appeals.

Court rules and constitutions

The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and of Evidence are kept on hand. When the Hallucination Shield checks a rule or constitution citation, it reads the text in CaseRead’s public law database, or a state court’s official rules website in ten states.

Federal publications

Current federal regulations from eCFR, new and proposed rules from the Federal Register, and recent public laws from GovInfo.

Web search

Any answer can search the web when the question calls for it. Deep research runs a web search pass every time before it answers.

Your firm’s files

The documents in your vault, searched beside the law, so one answer can cite your file and the statute together.
