Ask questions, find cases, check citations, and trace authority
Find a known case
Search by case name, neutral citation, or an exact phrase. Combine them to jump to the paragraph of a known decision that uses a term.
Read and pinpoint
Read a decision in full or by paragraph range. The paragraph labels match the printed decision, so every pinpoint can be checked.
Trace authority
See which later cases cite a decision, what it relied on, and its procedural history, with the citing paragraphs in context.
How it works
Everything an agent needs to do research it can stand behind.
Semantic search- Find cases by legal concept, issue, or fact pattern.
Keyword search- Find cases by name, citation, or exact phrase in the text.
Read case- Read a decision by citation, in full or by paragraph range.
References- Citing cases, cited authorities, and procedural history.
Search legislation- Find the current version of a statute or regulation.
Read legislation- Read a statute, or one section of it, from the official source.
Complete and current
Decisions come from the courts' own sites where the court publishes them. Statutes come from the legislature, not from a copy.
- Supreme Court of Canada. Judgments and applications for leave.
- Federal courts. Federal Court, Federal Court of Appeal, and Tax Court of Canada.
- Ontario. Court of Appeal, Superior Court of Justice, Divisional Court, and Ontario Court of Justice.
- British Columbia. Court of Appeal, Supreme Court, and Provincial Court.
- Alberta. Court of Appeal, Court of King's Bench, and Court of Justice.
- Nova Scotia and Saskatchewan. Appeal, superior, and provincial court decisions, with gaps by court and year.
- New Brunswick and Manitoba. A small set of decisions. See the coverage guide for courts and limits.
- Legislation. Federal statutes and regulations, Ontario e-Laws, and BC Laws, read live so the text is the text in force.
- Every case links out. Results carry a public URL so a reader can open the source.
Built for agents that must not make things up
Retrieved, or not cited
The tools only return decisions that exist in the database, with their real citations and text. There is nothing to hallucinate from.
Honest misses
When a citation is not found, the tool says so and says what to check next. A miss is never presented as proof that a case does not exist.
Verifiable pinpoints
Paragraph labels come from the decision itself. If a decision has no printed labels, the tool says so, so the agent can flag the pinpoint as unverified.
