Your discovery already contains the trial. Strata assembles it.
Strata reads your entire discovery corpus and returns work grounded in what is in the record — from an initial discovery review to a complete trial strategy. Encrypted end to end, never used to train a model, and erased the moment you download. We keep nothing.
Two ways to put the record to work.
Start with a fast, grounded read of your discovery, or commission the full trial strategy. Same engine, same fidelity to the record, same zero-retention privacy.
Initial Discovery Review
A complete first-pass analysis of your discovery corpus: chronology, contested facts, Fourth and Fifth Amendment chains, suppression hooks, missing evidence, and an objective case-strength scorecard. The fast, grounded read that tells you where the case actually stands. Delivered as a polished, color-coded PDF.
Submit discovery →Trial Strategy Playbook
The full build: theory and theme, witness-by-witness cross-examination, evidence positioning, motions to draft, and opening and closing frameworks — a complete trial strategy grounded in what is in the record, ready to work from.

One run, four phases, drafted in order.
Strata works the way a trial lawyer works. It builds the theory first, then the witnesses, then the evidence, then the presentation. Each phase is grounded in the phase before it.
Theory development
The defense theory and theme, drawn from the elements the State has to prove and the places the file shows it cannot.
Witness analysis and cross
A map of every witness, the attack targets on each, and a cross examination built to hold them on a short leash.
Evidence planning
How each exhibit gets positioned, where the chain breaks, and which pieces of the corpus carry the theory.
Trial presentation
Opening, closing, and direct examination, written in your voice and tied back to the record at every turn.
Twelve sections out of one case file.
A single run produces a complete strategy document. Not an outline and not a summary. The full work, section by section.
It drafts the filings, not just the plan.
Strata does not stop at analysis. It writes the documents you file, in your firm's house style, with every authority tagged unverified and a citation manifest attached for the Westlaw pass.
Pretrial motions
Suppression, Franks, motions in limine, and the rest of the motion practice.
Oppositions and replies
Responses to the State, answered point for point off the record.
Writs and petitions
Habeas, mandamus, and the constitutional writ petitions that follow a conviction.
Post trial motions
New trial and the record built to support it.
Subpoenas
Duces tecum and witness, drawn up and ready to serve.
Discovery demands
Targeted to the gaps the engine finds in the file.
and the rest of your routine filing work
The rules the system will not break.
Your case data is never used to train a model.
Strata runs on Anthropic's API under commercial terms, which prohibit training on your inputs or outputs. Traffic is encrypted in transit, retention is limited by default, and zero data retention is available for qualifying accounts. For a firm with the hardware to carry it, Strata can run fully local instead, with nothing leaving the building at all.
It reads your whole discovery corpus.
Retrieval runs against the entire corpus, the OCR'd documents, the photo and video detections, the jail call transcripts, and the phone extractions, alongside the charging document, the motions, and the orders you stage. Every claim points back to a specific asset in the record.
Every citation is presumed wrong until a human clears it.
Authorities ship tagged as unverified. A citation manifest travels with every draft, listing each case, its reporter cite, the pin, and the proposition it supports. You confirm before anything is filed.
Unverified by defaultBuilt by a trial lawyer.
Strata was built by a practicing criminal defense attorney carrying a live appointed caseload, using the methodology taught at the NACDL trial college. It was built to win cases, then hardened in real felony trials.
Cross, planned line by line.
Give the module a witness and the record. It returns a controlled examination, with the impeachment targets, the order of attack, and the questions that hold a witness on a short leash. The plan is built from what the witness has already said under oath, so there is no open question you did not see coming.
The lawyers carrying the load.
Solo and small firms
Trial level work without a war room of associates behind you. Strata gives you the preparation depth of a large firm, on demand.
Public defenders and appointed counsel
Heavy dockets and no time to spare. Strata turns a finished discovery set into a working strategy in the time it takes to read the file.
Appellate and post conviction teams
A second set of eyes on the record that surfaces the element failures and the chain problems the trial may have missed.
We keep nothing. That is the product.
Privileged discovery deserves more than a promise. Strata is built so that, by design, there is nothing to subpoena.
Deleted the moment you download.
You review your finished document in your browser first. The instant you download it, every copy — your uploaded discovery, the finished output, and your record — is permanently erased from our storage and from the AI processor. We do not keep it. If you ever need it again, you run it again.
Encrypted end to end, never used to train a model.
Your files are encrypted in transit and at rest. Under commercial API terms your case data is never used to train any model. The pipeline runs on hardened infrastructure following platform security best practices.
