Three steps.
You are always in control.
Connect your email and documents, let Cedent do the execution work, and sign off on everything before it goes anywhere. What needs you comes to you, twice a day.
Look around first, then link your mailbox.
Start on a sample matter that is already populated, so you can see the work before you point Cedent at anything of your own. When you are ready, connect your Microsoft 365 mailbox and calendar and bring documents in from OneDrive or SharePoint. Cedent reads them, works out what each one is, and builds a summary of every matter.
- A sample matter to look through before you connect anything real
- Cedent reads the mailbox you choose, and you can revoke access whenever you like
- Files and folders from OneDrive or SharePoint, or a watched folder that keeps arriving on its own
- Scanned exhibits read, categorized by what they are, and made searchable
- A new client's name checked against every party in every matter you have opened
- A trust-ranked summary and timeline per matter, every fact carrying its document
Cedent takes the first pass.
Triage sorts the mail and files it. The paralegal pulls facts out of the documents and tracks the disclosure clock. The assistant counts deadlines on the county's calendar. The filing assistant prepares the forms and the county's filing instructions, and asks you for the values the record cannot supply.
- Mail read, matched to a matter, and filed with its attachments
- Court-day deadlines on the county's own calendar, with the arithmetic shown
- FL-150, FL-142 and RA-010 filled from the matter record
- Opposing counsel's discovery responses read for what they dodged
- Deadlines pushed to your Outlook calendar, hearings you add flowing back
Nothing leaves your desk without your sign-off.
Every draft waits in your review queue: forms, emails, billing entries. Read it, edit any field, then approve or throw it away. Approving a form locks it, so the values you reviewed cannot drift from the copy you file. And you do not have to go looking - a brief arrives twice a day with what needs you, and one tap in it approves or dismisses.
- Approve, edit, or reject, one at a time or in a batch
- Every filled field shows its source and how confident Cedent is
- Conflicting facts raised for the lead attorney rather than silently resolved
- Billing entries surfaced for approval, with any day adding up to more hours than you worked flagged first
- A matter that goes quiet while something is still pending gets raised before it becomes a problem
The limits are the point.
An assistant that quietly does more than you asked is one you have to audit constantly. These boundaries are deliberate.
It does not file with the court. You file.
It does not send mail on its own initiative. You ask, you read, you send.
It does not write an unsourced fact into a draft. It flags it for discovery instead.
It does not resolve a conflict between two documents. It raises it for the lead attorney.
It does not claim a fact is better sourced than it is. Only you can mark something verified.
It does not bill time you have not attested to, and it will tell you when a day does not add up.
It is never trained on your matters.
Twenty minutes in the product.
The same sequence you just read, walked end to end on our demonstration firm: the filing arrives, the deadline computes on the county's rules, the FL-150 fills from the record. No client data required.
