Getting in

Signing in

Adjudica is purpose-built for California Workers’ Compensation attorneys — “Augmented Intelligence,” not a black box. Every page is explainable.

✓Session-based authentication (BetterAuth) with org and team management.
✓Compliance is front-and-center: Terms, Privacy, AI Transparency, and the BAA acknowledgement live in the footer of every page.
✓The platform never routes Protected Health Information through any model without a Business Associate Agreement in place.

Where your day startsNew

Home — your ranked caseload

Attorneys land on a caseload ranked by what actually needs attention today — not an alphabetical list. The page answers “what should I work on next?” before you ask.

✓Four KPI tiles at a glance: Active Cases, Need Attention Now, Drafts Pending Review, and Settlement Pipeline value.
✓A Hot List surfaces the matters that need you most, each with a plain-language reason it’s ranked where it is.
✓Today / This Week tracks statute-of-limitations (SOL) deadlines — the red flags a WC practice can’t afford to miss.
✓The Inbox routes you straight to drafts awaiting review and mailroom documents waiting to be classified.

The system of record

Every case, with its whole story attached

Matters are the spine of the platform — parties, injury details, documents, drafts, timeline, and a knowledge graph, all in one workspace.

Every case

Matters — the full caseload

The complete list of the firm’s cases. This is the system of record that everything else hangs off of.

✓Each matter carries its parties, injury details, documents, drafts, and timeline.
✓Adjudica is the case-management system of record — onboarding imports your existing cases from MerusCase, so the practice runs here, not alongside a legacy tool.
✓Filtering and search make a large caseload navigable; the list is the jumping-off point into any single case.

How a case is born

Opening a case from documents

A case can be born from a stack of paper. Drop in the pleadings and Adjudica’s AI reads them, extracts the parties and claim details, and stands up the matter for you.

✓Drag-and-drop pleadings → the AI analyzes the actual document and proposes a new matter, pre-filled.
✓Multimodal AI extraction (Gemini) reads names, employer, injury, and dates — not just the filename.
✓Turns the most tedious part of intake into a review-and-confirm step.

Inside a case

The matter workspace

Open a case and you get a single workspace for everything about it — parties, documents, drafts, the case chat, and the event timeline.

✓AI case chat lets you ask questions about the matter and get answers grounded in the case’s own documents.
✓Document drafting, form filling, and the knowledge graph all operate within the scope of this one matter.
✓Role-based capabilities decide what each team member can see and do — the UI never offers an action the server will refuse.

Inside a case · insurance

Insurance & claim details

Each matter tracks the insurance side of the claim — the carrier, adjuster, and policy the case is litigated against.

✓Captures the workers’-comp carrier, claim number, and adjuster.
✓Pulled from the case documents, and imported from MerusCase during onboarding where available.
✓The insurance panel sits in the matter Overview alongside parties and injury details.

The case story

Timeline — the case in chronological order

Every matter has a timeline assembled automatically from the events Adjudica’s AI extracts from the case’s own documents — the case history reconstructed without manual data entry.

✓Events are derived from uploaded documents (medical reports, filings, correspondence) by the OCR + LLM pipeline — the same Glass Box extraction that feeds the rest of the case.
✓Search and tag-filtering make a long case history navigable, and the view stays pinned to the matter you’re focused on.
✓Statute-of-limitations and treatment milestones surface here in date order — the chronology a Workers’ Comp matter turns on.

Case intelligence

The Matter Knowledge Graph

Adjudica builds a knowledge graph of each matter — the people, providers, employers, body parts, and events, and how they connect — so the case’s structure is visible, not buried in PDFs.

✓Entities and relationships are extracted from the case’s documents by the AI enrichment pipeline.
✓An interactive explorer lets you traverse the case as a graph and trace any fact to its provenance.
✓Shown in preview — the knowledge graph is rolling out now; once active, edges populate from the live case record.

Transparent by design

Document intake you can actually see into

Every document flows through a pipeline that narrates each step. OCR runs with LLM correction, and a human reviews before anything is trusted — the heart of the Glass Box.

Document intakeNew

The Mailroom Command Center

Every document that arrives flows through the Mailroom — a transparency-first pipeline that shows exactly where each file is and why. This is the heart of the “Glass Box” philosophy.

✓Three lanes make the pipeline legible at a glance: Needs Review, Exceptions, and Cleared.
✓Failed documents land in Exceptions with attorney-friendly issue labels — never a raw error code. A file that can be re-processed shows a Retry; one that genuinely can’t (encrypted or unsupported) doesn’t pretend it can.
✓OCR runs on Google Document AI with LLM correction; the pipeline narrates each step rather than hiding behind a spinner.
✓Cleared documents show their final disposition — AI-accepted, reviewed — so nothing is processed silently.

How documents arrive

Document upload

Documents enter the firm here. Drag-and-drop a batch of incoming mail and Adjudica takes it from raw file to classified, matter-attached evidence — every step visible in the Mailroom.

✓Accepts PDF, JPEG, PNG, and DOCX, up to 50MB each — the formats a WC practice actually receives.
✓Uploaded files land in the Mailroom pipeline, where OCR (Google Document AI) and LLM correction extract and classify them.
✓From here the Mailroom’s three lanes take over — so you always know whether a document cleared, needs review, or hit an exception.

The evidence library

Documents — the firm-wide library

Once the Mailroom clears a document, it lands in the Documents library — a single, searchable system of record for every file across every matter.

✓Search, filter, and sort across the whole firm’s documents by matter, type, subtype, and uploader.
✓Each document carries its AI classification and the OCR-extracted evidence behind it — viewable, correctable, and never hidden.
✓Documents flow from here into drafts, forms, and the case timeline — the library is the spine the case work hangs on.

Inside a document

The document viewer

Open any document and Adjudica shows it alongside what the AI understood about it — type, classification, and the evidence extracted — never a black box.

✓The original file sits next to its AI-derived metadata, so you can verify the machine’s read.
✓PHI-sensitive fields (AI reasoning, extracted values) are access-controlled on the server, not just hidden in the UI.
✓Each document carries an explainer — “why was this classified this way?” — so the AI’s call is always inspectable.

Human in the loop

OCR review — the Glass Box gate

Before any AI-extracted text is trusted, an attorney reviews and corrects it side-by-side with the source page. This human-in-the-loop gate is the heart of the Glass Box promise.

✓The reviewer compares the AI/OCR-extracted blocks against the original PDF and corrects anything wrong before approving.
✓Approval is an explicit, auditable step — nothing advances to drafting or the timeline silently.
✓Shown here for a freshly-uploaded document awaiting OCR; once the pipeline runs, the corrected text populates this surface.

Augmented intelligence

Research, draft, and file — with the judgment kept human

Multi-LLM research, template and custom drafting, and AI form-fill for California WC court forms — every output built for attorney review, never OpenAI in any PHI path.

Research

Ask Adjudica — AI legal research

A research surface tuned for California Workers’ Compensation — ask a question and get an explainable, sourced answer rather than a confident guess.

✓Multi-LLM orchestration across Anthropic Claude and Google Gemini / Vertex AI — the right model for each job, never OpenAI in any PHI path.
✓Answers are designed to be traceable back to their sources, in keeping with the platform’s transparency standard.
✓The foundation for deeper research capabilities on the way.

Drafting

Templates

Reusable document templates power fast, consistent drafting across the firm — the starting point for AI-assisted document generation.

✓Templates feed the draft editor (TipTap), where AI helps fill and tailor documents to a specific matter.
✓Form filling is AI-powered and provider-aware, with field-level validation on both the client and server.
✓Drafts created here flow back into the matter and into the Drafts Pending Review queue on Home.

Drafting · the skeleton

The template builder

Templates are the reusable skeletons behind every generated document. The builder is where a firm encodes its house style — sections, fixed text, and the placeholders the AI will fill.

✓Build sections in a rich-text editor (TipTap); placeholders like [Law Firm Name] and [Date] mark the raw inputs the AI resolves per matter.
✓A template can be AI-generated from sample documents, then edited and approved.
✓Approved templates feed the draft generator and the workflow automations.

Drafting · the AI call

AI form-fill, invoked live

The malpractice-critical moment: the attorney clicks “Re-fill Form With AI” and Adjudica fills a California Workers’ Comp court form from the case record — every field traceable.

✓The model reads the matter’s documents and answers each field; here a live DWC-1 is being filled, field by field.
✓Form-fill runs on Gemini (Flash Lite → Pro) — never OpenAI, which has no BAA for PHI.
✓Every value carries an “AI-generated — verify before use” disclaimer; the human signs off.

Work product

Drafts — every document in progress

The Drafts library is where AI-assisted work product lives — court forms, template drafts, and custom documents, each scoped to its matter and tracked from creation to review.

✓Filter by matter, type, subtype, status, and creator; the Active-drafts view keeps in-progress work front and center.
✓Drafts are generated and refined with AI (the TipTap editor), then routed into the Drafts Pending Review queue on Home — a human always approves before anything is final.
✓Court-form filling, template-based drafts, and free-form custom drafts all surface here in one place.

Filing

Court filings

When a document is ready to file, Adjudica assembles the package, binds the attorney’s certification to its exact contents, and prepares it for submission.

✓Select the matter’s PDFs, build a package, and the system stores a SHA-256 hash of exactly what’s certified.
✓Certification is an explicit attorney step — identity bound to the reviewed bytes — keeping a human accountable for what’s filed.
✓E-filing is in preview today, with a court-filing integration in progress; the surface is built and ready for it.

Do more, faster

Automate the predictable, track the rest

Turn routine drafting into rules, keep deadlines and tasks in view, and manage the people and vendors a practice coordinates with.

Automation

Workflows

Workflows connect templates to triggers, so routine drafting happens on its own. The platform states the rule in plain English: when a case condition is met, generate a draft — and route it for human approval.

✓Example, straight from the product: “when a new medical report uploads to any matter, automatically generate a Medical Summary draft.”
✓Generated drafts never auto-send — they enter the Review Queue for attorney approval, keeping a human in the loop.
✓A workflow requires at least one template to fire, which is why Templates and Workflows are designed as a pair.

Automation · library

The Common Workflow Library

A catalog of pre-built California Workers’ Comp automations a firm can deploy in one click — the fast path to putting routine drafting on autopilot.

✓Each entry is a ready-made rule (e.g. auto-generate a Medical Summary when a medical report is approved).
✓Deploying instantiates the rule for your firm; only admins can deploy or retract.
✓Pairs with the Workflows builder, where you tailor or author rules from scratch.

Getting things done

Worklist

A consolidated list of what’s on your plate across the whole caseload — the task layer that sits beside the ranked Home view.

✓Pulls the actionable items out of every matter into one place so nothing slips.
✓Capability-gated under Tools, like the rest of the workflow surfaces.
✓Complements Home: Home tells you which cases need attention; Worklist tells you the specific tasks.

Deadlines

Calendar

The time view of the practice — appointments, hearings, and the statutory deadlines that drive a Workers’ Comp matter.

✓Surfaces the same SOL (statute-of-limitations) deadlines that flag on Home, in a date-oriented layout.
✓Visible only to roles with calendar capability — the nav adapts to permissions.
✓Keeps time-critical WC obligations from falling through the cracks.

Insight

Reports

Firm-level analytics — the metrics a managing attorney uses to see how the practice is performing.

✓Aggregates caseload, pipeline, and throughput into reportable views.
✓Gated to roles with reporting capability (e.g. admins), so line attorneys see a leaner menu.
✓Turns the day-to-day activity captured across the platform into decisions.

The firm rolodexNew

Contacts

A firm-wide contacts directory — the people and organizations a WC practice deals with, in one searchable place.

✓A recently shipped surface in the firm’s toolkit.
✓Lives under Tools, capability-gated like the rest of the nav so the menu only ever shows what your role can use.
✓Backed by the contacts API, ready to wire into matters, drafts, and correspondence.

CoordinationNew

Vendors

A vendor marketplace and management surface — copy services, providers, and court e-filing partners a firm coordinates with.

✓The grant rail (issuing scoped vendor access) ships as a visible preview — deliberately inert until a properly scoped, time-boxed, audited access model is in place. Least-privilege by design.
✓Court e-filing is in preview today, with the integration in progress; the surface is ready for it.
✓Honest labeling throughout: nothing claims a capability the backend can’t yet safely deliver.

Run the firm

✓Admin-configured; shapes how prospective matters are evaluated.

Integration · MerusCase

MerusCase — Connect

The onboarding step that links a firm’s existing MerusCase account so its cases and documents migrate into Adjudica.

✓Prompts the firm to connect MerusCase (or skip for now).
✓Connection is via OAuth; tokens are stored encrypted, per-firm.
✓Once connected, existing cases and claimant documents import into Adjudica.
