One fabricated citation can sink your entire case.

AI writes confident, polished legal arguments — and sometimes cites cases that do not exist. Authority Verifier checks every citation against real court records and refuses to release your argument until each one is verified real, on-point, and good law.

The detriment of not being this thorough

When a made-up case slips into a filing, the damage isn’t hypothetical — it’s on the record, in front of the one person you most need to trust you.

Why you can’t trust an AI to check its own work

This is the part most “AI legal tools” hope you never ask about.

An LLM loops back on itself

When you ask a language model “is this citation real?”, it answers using the same machinery that invented the citation in the first place. It has no library card. It isn’t looking anything up — it’s predicting the most plausible-sounding next words. A fabricated case reads exactly as fluent and confident as a real one, because fluency is all the model is optimizing for.

Worse: ask it to double-check and it will defend the fake — inventing a plausible holding, a pin cite, a year. Self-consistency doesn’t mean correctness; it means the model is confidently wrong in a loop. Letting a model grade its own homework is not a safeguard. It’s the same risk, wearing a checkmark.

We break the loop with an outside source of truth

Authority Verifier doesn’t ask the AI to trust itself. Every citation is sent to CourtListener — the real, public database of U.S. court opinions. Either the case exists in the record, or it doesn’t. That’s a fact the model cannot talk its way around.

Then a separate audit step confirms the real case actually stands for the point you cited it for — not just that it exists. And nothing is released to you until every citation clears. If it can’t be verified, the draft is held back, not handed over.

Other tools generate. We gate. The drafting is the easy part — refusing to ship what can’t be proven is the product.

How it works

1

Describe your argument

Tell it the point you need to make and the authority you want to lean on. It drafts the section in proper citation form.

2

Every cite is checked against real records

Each citation is resolved against CourtListener and audited for whether the case truly supports your point.

3

Nothing ships until it’s clean

Any fake, off-point, or disallowed authority is flagged and rewritten. You only ever receive a verified section.

Who it’s for

Self-represented litigants (pro per)

You’re going up against trained counsel without a research budget. This levels the field — proper citation form, real authority, and a guarantee you won’t hand the judge a reason to doubt you. Pay per matter or monthly.
