Claude drafts.
DocketDrafter makes it court-ready.
DocketDrafter is the done-for-you firm playbook and document system behind Claude: prior work, court-specific templates, drafting rules, version history, and Word/PDF output. Every completed draft strengthens your private firm library.
How DocketDrafter works
Your lawyers keep working in Claude. DocketDrafter adds your firm's prior work and formatting, so drafts come out the way your firm files them.
Keep using Claude
Your team keeps working in Claude. DocketDrafter connects it to the firm playbook and document system behind the scenes.
Start from firm memory
Claude finds the closest prior work, template, rule, or reusable example instead of starting from a blank page.
Get Word and PDF output
You get a court-formatted DOCX and PDF, ready for attorney review and final filing checks.
Onboarding is done for you. Send PDFs and DOCX files of work your team has filed or sent, and we build your firm playbook before you log in.
The same workflow handles more than pleadings.
Ask Claude for the related documents your matter needs. DocketDrafter supplies the right firm template, facts, and Word rendering behind the scenes.
What goes into your playbook?
Send the documents your litigators already use. DocketDrafter turns them into a private firm workspace Claude can use across matters and users.
How setup worksFiled work product
Briefs, pleadings, letters, demands, disclosures, and other examples your lawyers already trust.
Court formatting
Captions, fonts, spacing, numbering, signature blocks, verifications, tables, and jurisdiction-specific templates.
Firm preferences
Drafting rules, citation conventions, recurring edits, style notes, and the small formatting details your team cares about.
Reusable workflows
Complaints, answers, motions to dismiss, engagement letters, demand letters, and other repeatable litigation documents.
Built-in controls, powered by your playbook.
Court-ready formatting
Captions, numbered paragraphs, signature blocks, verifications, and court-specific rules follow your firm's conventions in the finished Word file, so no one is reformatting by hand.
Full version history
Every draft is saved automatically, so you get the complete history of a document and can restore an earlier version at any time. Nothing is overwritten or lost.
Citation review workflow
Attorneys can review and save authorities used in drafts. Over time, the firm builds a case-law and primary source library that future drafts can recognize, subject to attorney review.
Your work product, made reusable
Every draft is captured in a format Claude can quickly read and reuse, so your firm's prior work compounds into a library the AI draws from.
Never lose the good draft.
Every AI edit is saved, so your team can see the document history and restore an earlier version when needed.

You control the legal substance.
DocketDrafter never replaces legal judgment. Your lawyers decide what the document says.
- Your lawyers decide the arguments, facts, and filing strategy.
- Your playbook supplies the approved templates, rules, and prior work the AI can reuse.
- DocketDrafter renders the result into a Word file ready for lawyer review.
Your playbook is your firm's IP.
Your playbook is built from your templates, prior work, and review history. DocketDrafter organizes and versions it so your team can reuse work it has already paid to create. Your firm owns the playbook content, can export the underlying files, and DocketDrafter does not train models on it.
Frequently asked questions
Claude can draft, but it does not automatically have your firm templates, prior matter history, formatting rules, reusable examples, citation review, version control, or Word rendering. DocketDrafter gives Claude the controlled firm workspace around the model.
Claude output is loose text. DocketDrafter drafts live in a matter workspace with approved templates, reusable snippets, version history, document checks, citation review, and Word rendering.
Your firm does. The playbook is built from your templates, prior work, snippets, drafting rules, approved citations, and review history. DocketDrafter hosts and operationalizes it, but the work product and drafting knowledge remain your firm's asset.
DocketDrafter is designed for attorney-controlled citation review. Citations can be marked, approved, and saved to the firm playbook so future drafts can be checked against authorities the firm has already reviewed. Attorneys remain responsible for legal research, currentness, and final approval.
Yes. Each document drafted through DocketDrafter can become part of the firm library, so future matters can start from the closest approved answer, motion, complaint, discovery demand, stipulation, or letter.
Claude Projects and shared folders are good personal starting points. DocketDrafter turns that idea into maintained firm infrastructure: done-for-you setup, shared playbooks, version history, court-specific rendering, reusable templates, and support when the firm wants a formatting rule or drafting preference to persist.
See how DocketDrafter worksDocketDrafter is Claude-first today. The playbook is designed to be model-portable as agent apps mature, but Claude is currently the best-supported working interface.
No. DocketDrafter is not where you chat with AI. It is the controlled matter workspace, playbook, version history, citation review, firm library, and Word output layer that Claude can use while you keep working in the AI environment you already like.
Prior filed documents, Word templates, approved drafting rules, formatting checks, caption conventions, signature blocks, verification language, citation preferences, reusable examples, and review notes.
See how playbook setup worksYes. One of the main benefits is turning one attorney's AI workflow into a shared firm system. Other attorneys and staff can work from the same examples, rules, and review history without becoming prompt engineers.
No. Word remains the review and filing artifact. DocketDrafter helps produce clean Word output from the playbook so the draft follows your firm's formatting and court conventions.
The attorney. DocketDrafter supplies structure, memory, formatting, versioning, citation review, and rendering. Your lawyers decide the facts, arguments, strategy, and final filing content.
Yes. Your firm owns the playbook content: the documents, examples, drafting guidance, formatting rules, and reusable work product. DocketDrafter can provide the underlying files and folders if you leave the platform.
No. DocketDrafter is focused on drafting infrastructure: firm playbooks, prior work, templates, version history, citation review, and Word/PDF output. It can complement practice-management tools, but it does not replace docketing, calendaring, or case management software.
Firm plans start at $500 per month. Done-for-you setup and priority support are included, and the first month has a 30-day money-back guarantee. Your firm brings its own Claude subscription.
Each firm has its own isolated workspace. Data is encrypted at rest, never used to train models by DocketDrafter, and firm work can be deleted within 30 days after leaving the platform.
