Built by a Pro Se · Tested in Active Federal & State Litigation
The platform is forged in the same court records it serves.
Most legal AI tools are built by lawyers for lawyers. ADS was built by a pro se litigant currently fighting three concurrent dockets against Fortune 500 defendants — across a federal appeal, a federal trial court, and California state court — without representation, without a firm behind him, without the $1,200/hour partner across the table. Every case below is public record, verifiable through the courts named. The platform you're looking at is the same one that filed them.

The Citations Behind the Filings
Each arc is one of the three active dockets. Each line is a controlling authority cited in that filing.
Every citation was generated by ADS, verified against CourtListener, and accepted by the court.
