Citations, formatted in one click.

A properly formatted case citation is a small thing that has to be exactly right, over and over, dozens of times in a single brief. Volume, reporter, page, pin cite, court, year — every element in its place, every space and comma where convention says it goes. Get it slightly wrong and it doesn't break the argument, but it does mean someone has to catch it, fix it, and wonder what else got missed.

What it does

Fill in the fields — case name, volume, reporter, page, court, year, and an optional pin cite — and get a correctly formatted citation instantly, with the case name properly italicized, ready to copy straight into your document. No more retyping the same punctuation pattern from memory, no more double-checking whether the comma goes before or after the pin cite.

It's deterministic, the same way the Bates numbering tool is: given the same inputs, you get the same, correct output, every time. And the same honesty applies here too — citation conventions and Bluebook rules shift, and courts have their own local quirks, so we say plainly that this handles the standard format and you should verify against your jurisdiction's current rules before filing.

Why the small tools matter

None of these tools — the citation formatter, the Bates numbering, the deadline calculator — are the flashy part of an AI product. They don't summarize a deposition or draft a memo. But they're the tasks that fill the gaps between the real work, the ones that don't feel important enough to complain about but add up to real time every single week.

That's exactly why they're in the Toolkit. Not everything needs to be intelligent. Some things just need to be instant.
