Trust

Why law firms trust CiteSafe

Firms do not need another generator. They need an independent gate after the draft — statuses, lineage, and Confidential Mode that does not pretend to be counsel.

Independence, not self-grading

Generators write. Suites research. Neither should be the sole auditor of their own citations. CiteSafe sits after any model or human draft and returns Verified / Needs Review / Could Not Verify with named layers.

  • Model-agnostic — works after Harvey, GPT, Claude, Word, or a junior’s memo
  • No “hallucination-free” marketing — honest risk labels
  • Exportable report hash and source lineage for partner review

Confidential Mode is the default

Confidential Mode is a core product feature, not a settings footnote. Cite-only by default: citations are extracted in the browser; client narrative does not leave unless counsel deliberately arms Full document.

Software does not create attorney–client privilege. It reduces disclosure surface so lawyers can stay closer to existing duties. Security architecture →

Named sources, not a black box

Every status is backed by named layers: fabrication heuristics, authority corpus, CourtListener, CAP, GovInfo when configured. Methodology is public.

What trust is not

  • Not KeyCite or Shepard’s treatment history
  • Not legal advice or an attorney–client relationship
  • Not SOC 2 Type II until independently audited (path is public, not faked)
  • Not a substitute for counsel reading the authority
