What is Legal Research?
What does 'Legal Research' mean?
Legal research here means the AI searches case law, statutes and regulations, reads what it finds, and answers the question in prose with the authority it relied on attached. What separates products is coverage and honesty about it: which jurisdictions and courts are included, how current the corpus is, and whether a citation can be opened and checked in one click. An answer without a working source link cannot be reviewed, which is the only thing that makes AI research usable in practice.
