What Acta does — the outcome, explained
A plain-language explainer of the work Acta does across a matter, from intake to a defensible record.
Works across the whole matter
Acta is a workspace for a matter, not a chat box beside one. You bring in the file — pleadings, contracts, correspondence, evidence — and Acta reads it as a whole. It can find what is relevant, draft and review with the entire matter as context, and surface the next step, rather than answering one question at a time with no memory of the rest.
Grounded in official law and your files
Every legal point Acta makes is tied to a source: official law from its authoritative publisher, or a document from your own matter. This matters because even legal-specific AI tools have been found, in peer-reviewed testing, to invent citations a meaningful share of the time.[4]
Double-checked by an independent model
Before anything reaches you, a second, independent model checks the reasoning and the citations. A model is not reliable at marking its own work, so the check is done by a separate one — and whether each cited authority actually exists and says what it is quoted as saying is confirmed in code, against the official source, not by another guess.[6]
A record at every step
Everything Acta does is written to a running record of the matter: what came in, what Acta added, what changed, what it recommended, and what you approved. That record is the traceability your professional rules ask you to keep, produced as a by-product of doing the work rather than as a separate chore.[1]
You approve what Acta surfaces
Acta proposes; you dispose. Nothing reaches a client or a court without a lawyer's approval. The system is built to surface the strongest version of the work first and to make the decision yours — which is exactly where the responsibility, by rule, has to sit.
