Verify a citation free on /verify — no signup. Legal AI should not just answer. It should verify.

Legal research automation is incomplete without verification

March 23, 2025

Legal research automation can retrieve and summarize faster than a first pass by hand. Speed is not the filing problem. The filing problem is a citation that does not exist, or that exists but does not support the sentence.

That is why this site leads with verification, not with a claim that OWL is a better researcher. Verify a citation on /verify before you treat an automated research memo as ready to use. The five checks are existence, citation format, holding support, verification path, and a human review flag.

We do not publish unsourced accuracy percentages. If a tool cannot show the path from the cite to a public source, it has not verified anything. OWL is not an AI lawyer and not a Westlaw competitor. It is the check after research, with a person still responsible for the brief.
