EvidenceOS

AI-powered evidence management for legal and business disputes

Category: Legal SaaSStatus: MVP
Level 2

The Problem

What pain does this solve?

Legal professionals spend 40% of their time manually organizing evidence, searching through documents for contradictions, and building case timelines by hand.

Who has this problem?

Solicitors at SME law firms, claims adjusters at insurance companies, HR departments handling workplace disputes, and independent legal consultants.

What do they do now?

Excel spreadsheets, paper files with sticky notes, generic document management systems not built for legal evidence, or expensive enterprise solutions.

What does it cost them?

£50,000+ per year in wasted billable hours for a small firm. Missed contradictions can cost cases worth hundreds of thousands.

Level 3

The Solution

What does this tool do?

Upload your case documents and the AI automatically extracts entities (people, places, dates), builds a timeline, detects contradictions, and gives you a case readiness score.

Why is this better?

Purpose-built for legal evidence with AI that understands legal context. Not a generic document manager with AI bolted on.

The AI Explained

For non-technical people

What AI does this use?

Multi-agent AI system using large language models (similar to ChatGPT) specialized for legal document analysis.

What does "AI agent" mean?

An AI agent is like a digital employee that can read documents, make decisions, and take actions without being told exactly what to do each time. It learns what to look for.

The agents in this tool

Agent NameWhat it doesHuman equivalent
Timeline AgentReads documents and places events in chronological orderJunior paralegal spending days on timeline
Entity AgentExtracts and links people, places, dates, organizationsData entry clerk cataloguing evidence
Contradiction AgentCompares statements across documents for conflictsSenior associate reviewing for inconsistencies
What wasn't possible 2 years ago

Reading 500 pages and finding every contradiction, entity mention, and timeline event in 30 seconds instead of 3 days.

Employees this replaces (or augments)

RoleSalary (UK avg)What the AI does instead
Paralegal£28,000/yrDocument organization and timeline building
Junior Associate£45,000/yrInitial evidence review and categorization
Total wage savings potential: £30,000-50,000/year per firm in time savings

Why I Built This

The origin story

I liked Notebook LM but knew firms wouldn't want Google having all their information. The use case clicked when I heard about a lawyer who got put on a case with no time to go through it — they uploaded everything to an AI and asked questions that pulled out intricacies that would have taken weeks to research. AI can see patterns across years of emails and communications, like a detective with sticky notes on a wall, but in seconds.

Why I'm not running it myself

I build faster than I can sell. This needs someone with legal industry connections who can get in front of law firms and demonstrate the value.

What I want for this project

The standard tool for evidence management in every SME law firm in the UK, then expand to US and EU markets.

The Buzz

For non-technical people

This isn't a business idea. It's a working product. The hard part — building software that works — is done.

What you're actually getting:

  • A tool that organizes 500 pages of evidence in 30 seconds instead of 3 days
  • AI that acts like 2-3 paralegals working 24/7
  • Tech that would cost £75,000+ to build from scratch
  • A product ready to sell TODAY
The magic moment

Upload a 200-page case bundle, and in 30 seconds the AI shows you every contradiction, every key date, every person involved — with page references. What took days now takes seconds.

What this means for customers

Law firms save 10+ hours per case. At £150/hour billable rates, that's £1,500 saved per case. For a firm handling 50 cases/year, that's £75,000 in recovered time.
