Make case law searchable the way a lawyer thinks
Sedawk owned research, information architecture, interface design and the front end. The constraint: never put a practitioner in the position of citing something the system invented.
Four rules, set before a single screen
Written down first, and used to settle the arguments that came up in build.
Filters in the vocabulary of a matter
Six dimensions, all visible at once. Hover a number to see the region it refers to.
An assistant that has to show its work
A fluent answer without provenance is a liability. So the answer never appears alone.
A fixed shape beats a good paragraph
Nine sections, same order every time — so a dozen summaries can be compared.
One judgment is never the answer
Authority comes in lines. The platform surfaces what surrounds a case, and why.
One build, five vocabularies
The framing changes per segment. The product underneath does not.
Four steps, with the trail kept intact
Research gets defended weeks later, so filters and sources stay attached to the question.
Serious, without being forbidding
One accent colour, four type roles, and a small set of atoms that carry every state.
The same system, one surface further out
A publishing channel built in the product's own type and colour, not bolted on.
Where it landed
One research platform bringing judgments, intelligent filters and AI-assisted analysis into a single workspace — an AI legal assistant that cites its sources, structured judgment summaries, similar-case discovery, research folders and PDF export, on a tiered subscription.
