Pull Out Key Information

Use these prompts to extract the specific information that matters from dense or complex documents — dates, obligations, parties, timelines, defined terms, evidence, and other critical details.

Extract Parties, Roles, and Obligations

Map who's bound to do what under any contract, order, or multi-party document.

Identify each party named in the attached document and map their obligations, rights, and restrictions, including any obligations that are conditional, mutual, or triggered by another event. Flag any party whose obligations are vague, internally inconsistent, or unenforceable as drafted. If the document leaves any party's role undefined, identify that rather than inferring it.

Great for kicking off a contract review or making sense of a multi-party agreement.

Extract Key Dates and Deadlines

Pull a clean, chronological list of every date that matters out of a document so nothing slips.

Identify every meaningful date and deadline in the attached document, including ambiguous, conditional, or triggered dates that could create a missed-deadline risk. For each, give the date or triggering event, what happens, who is responsible, and the source location. If the document contains relative deadlines you cannot fully resolve, note them rather than guessing.

Especially useful for trial calendars, contract lifecycle tracking, and any document that drives a deadline.

Extract Defined and Technical Terms

Build a working glossary from any document so you can read the rest of it without losing the thread.

Identify the defined terms and terms of art used in the attached document, including any used inconsistently or in ways that depart from typical legal usage. Where a term is defined, give the definition; where it is not, explain it in plain English. If any term is critical to interpreting the document, note why.

Read the glossary first, then read the document — you'll move twice as fast.

Build a Narrative Chronology

Turn the events, communications, and actions in a document into a clean narrative timeline you can read like a story.

Build a narrative chronology of the events described in the attached document — written as a readable timeline, not a bare list. For each entry, give the date, what happened, who was involved, and the source location. Note gaps in the timeline and flag any place where two sources describe the same event differently. End with a one-paragraph read on the overall arc.

Use on deposition transcripts, correspondence, investigation files, or anything where the sequence of events matters more than the dates themselves.

List the Key Dates

Quickly pull every important date out of a document.

List every important date in this document. Include what each date is and who it applies to.

Build a Timeline

Turn a document or set of documents into a chronological timeline of events.

Build a chronological timeline of events from this document. For each entry, include the date, what happened, and who was involved.

For a more detailed result, see Build a Narrative Chronology.

Pull the Key Parties and Obligations

Identify who's involved and what each party is on the hook for.

Identify every party in this document and list each party's obligations, rights, and roles. Note any party whose obligations are unclear.

Build a Document Index or Exhibit Table

Creates a clean index, appendix, or exhibit table from a set of documents.

Review the attached documents and build a clean exhibit index. For each document, include: an exhibit number or label, the document title or type, the date, the source or author, and a one-line description of what it shows or supports. Present the result as a table.

Works for trial exhibit lists, appendices, statement-of-facts tables, and discovery indices. Add documents to the matter or attach them before running.

Build a Fact, Issue, or Evidence Matrix

Turns documents into a structured matrix connecting issues, evidence, witnesses, and gaps — a table to build from, not a verified record.

Build a fact, issue, or evidence matrix from the attached materials. Organize by issue, element, claim, defense, witness, exhibit, date, and source as appropriate, and present it as a table. Distinguish facts from inferences, include document references where available, and flag missing proof or contradictions that need follow-up.

Use when you want a chart, issue matrix, or proof table rather than prose. Works best when the source documents are in the matter or attached.
