# New Updates to Paxton
## **July 23, 2026 — Continuous File Integrations to OneDrive and Box**
What's new: Paxton can now connect to both Box and OneDrive to keep your case files automatically in sync. Connect once and there are no more manual uploads and no more "blind spots" from records that never made it in. (One-way sync. Google Drive and Dropbox coming soon.)
***
## **July 17, 2026 — Collaboration: Matter Sharing V1**
What's new: Multiple users at the same firm can now share a matter — upload files, run chronologies, and draft demand letters together — without sharing logins.
Impact: Eliminates the credential-sharing security risk and unblocks attorney/case-manager workflows.
***
## **July 15, 2026 — Inline Clickable Authority Citations (Bluebook-style)**
What's new: Citations look and behave the way lawyers expect — full Bluebook-style cites that click through to the exact cited page.
***
## **June 30, 2026 — Trellis Court Filing Intelligence for Drafting**
What's new: Paxton now drafts grounded in real, filed court documents from your jurisdiction — not generic templates. Structure, argument framing, and boilerplate are drawn from how attorneys actually argue before that court.
***
## **June 30, 2026 — Clickable Citation Rendering in Canvas**
What's new: Click any citation in a drafted document and jump straight to the source — case name, court, date, and surrounding context — without leaving your draft.
Impact: Closes the ethical-verification loop in one click.
***
## **June 26, 2026 — Single Matter Medical Chronology**
What's new: One living medical chronology per matter that grows as new records arrive. Add files via "Update," and the timeline merges new events without losing the verification work already done.
***
## **June 18, 2026 — Jurisdictional defaults for matters**
**What's new:** You can now set a jurisdiction on any matter from **Matter Details**. Choose **State**, **Federal**, or **Undecided**, and select the specific jurisdiction (for example, Texas). Once set, Paxton automatically references the appropriate statutes, regulations, and case law for that jurisdiction across the matter — so your research and drafting are grounded in the right body of law by default, without restating it in every prompt.
**Impact:** Less manual setup and fewer missed citations. Set the jurisdiction once and every chat, draft, and research query in the matter inherits the correct legal context.
***
## **June 16, 2026 — Template Formatting**
**What's new:** Two new ways to make drafts match your style and structure:
* **Apply template formatting at download** — with a draft open as an artifact, click the template icon in the toolbar and choose **Upload** or **Select Template** to apply your firm's or a court's formatting. The formatting is applied **when you download** the file, and your draft is not regenerated — the content stays exactly as written, only the formatting changes.
* **Draft off your existing work product's structure** — upload a prior work product, attach it to the conversation, and prompt Paxton to use it as the starting point. Paxton follows its structure, headings, and organization while adapting the content to your matter.
***
## **June 11, 2026 — Matter Timeline**
**What's new:** Matter Timeline builds a single, chronological record of every important date in your matter — extracted directly from your case files, with a citation back to the source for each event.
* **Every key date, not just medical** — unlike a medical-only chronology, Timeline captures filings, correspondence, contracts, incidents, demands, deadlines, and more.
* **Works across any litigation type** — not just personal injury, so you can use it for any matter where the sequence of events matters.
* **Cited to the source** — every event links back to the document it came from, so the chronology is verifiable.
* **Where to find it** — Timeline lives under **Matter Record**, alongside Medical Chronology and Medical Bills.
**Impact:** A ready-made, citable chronology of your entire case — no more manually piecing dates together across files. Matter Record turns your case files into structured, citable outputs you can use throughout your matter.
***
## **June 8, 2026 — Managing files overhaul**
**What's new:** We've rebuilt the UX for Matter Files and the file pickers, with a faster, more stable experience throughout:
* **New standalone viewer** — clicking an inline citation now opens a dedicated viewer instead of sending you to the old drive.
* **Move and rename without reprocessing** — you can move and rename files without kicking them back into the processing state. Renaming also no longer delinks a file from its chat, med chron, or med summary the way it used to.
* **Larger processing limits** — files up to **1 GB** and PDFs up to **2,500 pages**.
* **Better speed and stability** across file management.
**Impact:** Organizing and reviewing files is smoother and less disruptive — renaming and moving no longer breaks links or triggers re-processing, citations open right where you need them, and you can work with much larger documents.
***
## **May 26, 2026 — Citator updates & drafting overhaul**
**Citator updates:** We've made major improvements to the AI Citator. Select **Cited References** or **View Source** on any response, then **Analyze Case** to check whether a case is likely good law or requires caution, along with an explanation of that status. Complex analyses run in the background and notify you by email when ready, so you can keep researching in the meantime. ([Citator help article](https://help.paxton.ai/help/legal-research/citations-and-ai-citator))
**Drafting overhaul:** The drafting module now uses a new **draft → review → revise** flow. Highlights:
* **Scoped revisions** — ask it to change one section and it leaves the rest of the document untouched instead of rewriting everything.
* **Tighter first drafts** — drafts are now single-pass, with far less of the old duplicative, bloated output.
* **Self-review before handoff** — Paxton reviews and self-corrects a draft before handing it back, flagging and fixing "drift" and structural issues to better adhere to your request.
* **Multiple documents per chat** — you can draft separate documents in one chat without them bleeding into each other; the AI recognizes when to start fresh.
**Impact:** More reliable case validation, plus cleaner, more controllable drafting that respects your edits and keeps multiple documents straight in a single chat.
***
## **May 16, 2026 — Faster file pipeline**
**What's new:** We've improved the file pipeline for faster uploads and downloads, quicker processing, and support for larger file sizes.
**Impact:** Less waiting when working with documents, and fewer limits on the files you can bring into Paxton.
***
## **April 30, 2026 — Matter-centered workspace**
**What's new:** We've redesigned the workspace so your matter sits at the center of everything you do in Paxton. Chats, documents, and the AI assistant now all live inside the matter they belong to. Anything that wasn't already tied to a matter has been gathered into a new read-only **Unassigned** matter, so nothing is lost. You can move chats out of Unassigned into the right matter.
**Impact:** A single home base for each matter means less hunting across chats and files, and clearer separation of context between matters.
