Legal

Contract and diligence review with cited findings.

Agreements and exhibits stay as source files. Raycaster maps findings to the controlling language—then counsel verifies and decides.

Why this exists

The risk is in the controlling language—not the chat summary.

Matter work spans agreements, exhibits, and side letters. A useful system keeps the finding attached to the clause that actually governs the answer.

01

Governing terms get missed

Commercial questions fail when the controlling obligation lives in an exhibit the model never opened.

02

Nearby clauses look right

Agents cite adjacent language that sounds relevant but does not control the obligation.

03

Diligence gaps span exhibits

Approval, assignment, and change-of-control risk break when findings are not reconciled across related files.

Use cases

Legal work that ends in a disposition.

Start with the matter packet you already have. Raycaster surfaces cited findings; counsel keeps the decision.

How it works

From packet to counsel decision.

The review loop stays on the files of record. Chat is not the system of record.

What Raycaster finds

The misses counsel would catch.

Each finding includes the issue, the cited passage, and enough context to dispose it.

01

Missed obligations

Required consents, notices, or commercial terms absent from the reviewed answer.

02

Conflicting terms

Agreement language that conflicts across the main body, exhibits, or side letters.

03

Unsupported conclusions

Risk statements that cannot be traced to a controlling clause in the packet.

Matter types

One loop for the packets counsel already reviews.
