Legal Research That Doesn’t Fabricate Its Sources

Every citation verified in real time. Every source traceable. Build your research on a foundation of verified references, not AI that makes things up and hopes you don’t check.

How CoChat solves it

AI-Assisted Legal Research You Can Actually Trust

Six capabilities purpose-built for the way researchers actually work — not a general-purpose chatbot bolted onto your bibliography.

Every Source Verified. Every Reference Traceable.

CoChat searches academic, regulatory, and open-access databases and verifies every citation against CrossRef in real time. Disputed or unverifiable references are flagged before you cite them — not after opposing counsel finds them. See verification badges on every source.

Draft Memos and Briefs With Inline Citations That Resolve

Ask CoChat to draft a research memo. Every claim comes with an inline citation marker pointing to a real, verified source. Export your reference list. Check it yourself — every link resolves, every DOI is real.

Your Firm's Documents, Searchable From Any Chat

Upload your contracts, briefs, regulations, and internal memos to a project. CoChat indexes everything with RAG-powered retrieval. Ask questions across your entire document corpus — get answers citing the exact clause, paragraph, or provision. Share the project across your team.

An AI That Remembers Your Matter

CoChat remembers your case facts, the regulatory framework, your jurisdictional preferences, and your client context — across every conversation. No re-briefing the AI. No re-uploading the same exhibit. Pick up where you left off, even after the weekend.

Organize Your Research Without the Spreadsheet

Build structured research tables with custom columns — jurisdiction, holding, relevance, statute section, whatever your matter requires. Tag, filter, sort, and export. Every source in the table is verified.

Schedule Recurring Research Automatically

Set up automated workflows to monitor regulatory changes, run weekly research updates, or compile case digests on a schedule. Results delivered to your inbox or Slack. Stop manually checking for updates across five agency websites.

What CoChat is
and isn’t.

Six capabilities purpose-built for the way researchers actually work — not a general-purpose chatbot bolted onto your bibliography.

What CoChat is

+ A verified AI research assistant — academic, regulatory, and open-access sources.
+ Real-time citation verification. Every source checked, every reference resolves.
+ A firm knowledge base, structured research tables, and verified memo drafting.
+ Automated monitoring of regulatory changes on a schedule you control.

What it isn't

— Not a case law database. It does not replace Westlaw, LexisNexis, or Fastcase.
— Not for searching case reporters, statutes by citation, or Shepardizing.
— Not a substitute for primary legal research — it’s the verified layer alongside it.
— Use it for secondary research, regulatory analysis, drafting, and knowledge management.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

1. What is the best AI tool for legal research?
It depends on what you need. For case law search, dedicated platforms like LexisNexis and Westlaw remain the standard. For secondary research, regulatory analysis, and verified AI-assisted drafting, CoChat searches academic and open-access databases with real-time citation verification — every source is checked against CrossRef before you see it. No hallucinated citations. No fabricated case names.
2. Is it safe to use AI for legal research?
The risk with general-purpose AI is hallucinated citations — fabricated sources that sound real but don't exist. CoChat eliminates this risk by verifying every citation in real time and flagging disputed or unverifiable references before they reach your draft. Your firm's uploaded documents are stored in your private project and are not shared with model providers.
3. Can AI help paralegals with legal research?
Yes. CoChat helps paralegals organize research with structured tables, search across firm documents with natural language queries, and draft memos with verified inline citations. Automated workflows can monitor regulatory changes on a schedule and deliver updates to your inbox.
4. How is CoChat different from ChatGPT for legal work?
ChatGPT generates plausible-sounding text but frequently fabricates citations — including case names, docket numbers, and DOIs that don't exist. CoChat verifies every citation against CrossRef in real time. If a reference can't be verified, it's flagged before you use it. Courts are sanctioning lawyers for AI-fabricated citations; CoChat was built to prevent exactly this.
5. Does CoChat replace Westlaw or LexisNexis?
No. CoChat does not have access to case law reporters or proprietary legal databases. It complements your existing legal research platform by handling secondary research, regulatory source gathering, firm document search, memo drafting with verified citations, and automated monitoring.
