Docket Alarm now features new ways to get more from your data with SALI tags.

SALI, or Standards Advancement for the Legal Industry, is an organization promoting a universal, interoperable system for tagging legal cases and documents.

Docket Alarm’s API can now take advantage of SALI tags through two new AI endpoints - Area of Law and Forum and Venues The Area of Law endpoint takes a docket’s case type - whether it is state, federal, or an agency - and outputs the relevant SALI Area of Law tag.

The Forum and Venues endpoint works similarly - it takes a docket court field from Docket Alarm and converts it to the appropriate SALI tag.

These new endpoints work best with our recently launched integration into Foundation. With these new tools, you can easily populate your entire Foundation instance with SALI tags for case type and area of law and venue in just minutes!

Chicago and Miami(May 29, 2024),iManage, the company dedicated to Making Knowledge Work™, andvLex, a leading global legal intelligence platform, today jointly announced a new partnership which will see a number of secure and robust integrations enhancing the workflows and knowledge resources for their customers.

As the industry’s leading knowledge work platform, iManage provides 4,000+ customers with the highly reliable and performant platform they rely on to secure and manage their work product. vLex is trusted by more than two million lawyers, researchers, and government departments, offering comprehensive and intuitive access to the law in more than 200 jurisdictions through a versatile, AI-powered legal intelligence platform.

With the two initial integrations between the platforms, customers will benefit from a single view across internal best-practice know-how and publicly available legal data.

Searching for a company’s litigation record is rarely as simple as entering a name and clicking “search.” Companies may be listed on dockets under dozens of variations— parent corporations, subsidiaries, business units, misspellings and more.

Missing relevant search results is not the only concern either. Searches for common business names may yield overly-inclusive results, including false-positives for “Apple Orchards Inc.” when intending to only locate results for “Apple” Computers.

Though the use of fuzzy searching can improve results, it never fully addresses the issue as it faces the same tradeoff between precision and recall as a well-crafted boolean search.

Docket Alarm is excited to announce a solution— our latest AI endpoint, the Entity Normalizer.

We are excited to introduce a new feature for our customers: customizable document titles in Docket Alarm alerts. This new feature allows you to tailor the titles of documents attached to alerts, facilitating seamless integration with your document management systems and automated workflows.

With customizable document titles, you can include various fields such as:

• Court Name
• Case Title
• Docket Number
• Document Title
• Exhibit Number
• Filing Number
• Filing Date

This flexibility allows you to control the length of file names and helps streamline the document management process, making it more efficient and organized.

Docket Alarm is thrilled to announce the latest addition to our growing suite of OpenAI-powered endpoints: the Billing Rates Extractor. This game-changing tool enables users to quickly and easily access the hourly rates charged by attorneys, empowering legal professionals to make informed decisions and stay ahead of the competition.

The Billing Rates Extractor leverages the power of OpenAI's advanced language processing capabilities to extract attorney hourly rates from Docket Alarm's vast database.

Docket Alarm is proud to present our latest tools powered by artificial intelligence -the Complaint Summarizer and Cause of Action Extractor endpoints for the Docket Alarm API. These tools allow users to quickly and easily answer two of the most important questions present in any lawsuit - what are the facts alleged in the complaint, and what laws are alleged to have been broken?

With these endpoints, users can instantly understand what a case is about, and what types of claims are at stake.

Crafting precise search queries can be a time-consuming and delicate process, even for the most sophisticated of legal researchers. The beta launch of Docket Alarm’s new Smart Search endpoint seeks to streamline this process while optimizing the accessibility of even the most granular litigation data.

The Smart Search tool converts plain language instructions into robust queries, perfectly tailored to Docket Alarm’s search algorithm.

It can feel impossible to locate quality litigation data when crafting search queries from partial case details. Without a full docket number and court details, targeted data points can easily evade detection—obscured by the ever-rising tide of new cases and filings. However, Docket Alarm's latest API innovation, the Case Matcher endpoint, harnesses advanced language models and search engineering to match limited details with actual dockets from our database, making the process of finding cases more efficient than ever.

Using the Case Matcher endpoint is straightforward.
