Steno: Voice to Action for Legal Drafting
Just speak. We format. Steno drafts from speech like a lawyer—tap the mic and dictate naturally. Citations auto-format. Paragraphs auto-number. Section references auto-link. Say "Steno, fix grammar" or "Steno, switch to Marathi" and watch it happen.
+
Voice to action: speak commands like "new para 2.1.4", "bold that", "blockquote"—executed instantly
+
Auto-legal: recognizes section references, case names, writ numbers, and legal shorthand
+
Auto-format: numbering, indentation, headings, and structure without touching the keyboard
+
Auto-cite: say "cite Kesavananda Bharati here" or "s. 138 Negotiable Instruments"—formatted correctly
+
Pause anytime to edit manually with full formatting toolbar—then resume dictation
+
Resume prior sessions or export to DOCX
Now with Paralegal integration: Edit your draft via chat. Ask Paralegal to revise, restructure, or research—then continue dictating. Voice input buttons now available across Searcher, Suit, and Paralegal.

Drafting Agent: AI Document Editing with Track Changes
The pain: “good answers” that still die in Word—broken numbering, lost styles, mangled tables, and zero accountability for edits. The Drafting Agent is built for lawyerly redlines: preserve structure, propose changes with track changes, and keep you in control.
+
Styles that stay stable: headings, numbering, lists, footnotes—kept intact across edits
+
Tables that remain tables (and survive revisions)
+
Track Changes + comments: propose redlines, leave reviewer notes, accept/reject deliberately
+
Template-aware drafting: keep your firm’s look-and-feel while changing substance
+
Research → draft handoff: bring cited research into a first draft without copy/paste
+
Edit an existing Suit document or generate a new draft from instructions
+
Version timeline: compare, revert, and keep a clean “how we got here” record
+
Targeted edits: @mention a Suit file to tell the Drafter exactly what to modify
+
Manual takeover anytime: you can interrupt, rewrite, and steer mid-stream
What this unlocks: petitions, replies, notices, term sheets, board minutes, audit memos—drafted and revised in one flow, with redlines you can defend.

Paralegal Persistence: Background Runs & Session Recovery
For multi-hour matters—show-cause responses, due diligence, regulatory mapping—you shouldn’t lose work because a tab slept. Paralegal now continues in the background and reconnects cleanly without dropping state.

Background execution: you can close the tab; the run continues
+
Reconnect without losing stream continuity or citations-in-progress
+
Session recovery for disconnects: no “start over,” no lost work
+
Explicit stop: work only stops when you hit the kill button
+
Up to 5 parallel research sessions for a single matter
+
