Availability
- Supported work
- Find the decisions waiting across matters, prepare the next appearance and turn a confirmed hearing outcome into follow-through you can review.
- Start with
- The hearing pack uses the recorded motion or issue, requested relief, judge practices, prior appearance and open obligations. It assembles existing sources without authoring new facts; unread sections retain their reason.
- Key limit
- The list shows recorded work. If BRON could not read something, it says so. An empty list does not mean nothing needs attention.
Some capabilities have their own availability or configuration requirements, shown below.
Before you start
- The hearing pack uses the recorded motion or issue, requested relief, judge practices, prior appearance and open obligations. It assembles existing sources without authoring new facts; unread sections retain their reason.
- A debrief needs an existing hearing, deposition, trial or mediation calendar event and available debrief storage. An unavailable service does not report a recorded outcome.
- The normal confirmed-debrief path is separate from the optional reader for minutes, orders and transcripts. Source-quoted debrief prefills require the firm’s arrival-reader switch, which is off by default.
- Recorded approvals, tasks and changes supply the day’s work. A notice memo and an unresolved evidence question can require different actions on the same matter.
- Records on your matters. The list shows what BRON can read from a record the firm already holds. A matter nobody has recorded anything on raises nothing.
- For the line on why a row comes now, a firm that has turned it on.
How it works
See waiting decisions and obligations across matters, open a hearing pack assembled from recorded sources, then review the follow-through after counsel records the outcome. Each item opens its responsible workspace; a quiet or unread list is not an all-clear.
What needs my judgment now, what changed, and where can I act?
Before and after an appearance
Open the hearing pack from the record
Read what is being heard, counsel’s recorded position and relief, judge practices, the prior appearance and open obligations. Sources are named, and failed or absent reads stay unknown. Public practices remain separate from the firm’s private notes and history.
Record the outcome once, then review
A confirmed debrief can prepare a private client-update draft and draft time from supplied duration. Continuances or dated rulings suggest deadline recomputation; trial days suggest trial-book reconciliation. Rulings can prompt matter-memory review. Bench notes stay work product; nothing is sent, calendared or paid.
Paper-based prefills are optional
If the firm enables the arrival reader, minutes, an order or a transcript can propose debrief fields beside their source quotes. This reader is off by default. Counsel still confirms the outcome; an unstated duration is never guessed.
From changing record to next decision
Put the evidence question beside the waiting approval
An updated notice memo needs review of both accounts and the newly received email. A missing-notes request may remain open. The list brings recorded decisions and work to counsel; it does not resolve the legal issue or decide that the evidence is sufficient.
Resume at the responsible work
Open the exact draft, source review or request that owns the decision. On return to a matter, read what you were doing, what changed and what you owe. Use that context to choose whether the next step is factual review, targeted discovery or strategy preparation.
What the morning list shows
Each row starts with what to do
A row starts with the act it offers. Where the decision belongs on another screen, the row takes you there instead of acting in place.
One list, in four groups
The list sorts the open tasks across your matters into four groups: what is on the clock, what needs your judgment, housekeeping, and what can stay quiet.
The list and brief use one clock
AvailableThe list and daily brief use the same fixed rules and shared clock. No AI model sorts them.
Open the task's screen, or its matter
Each kind of task names the screen where it is handled. If the app you are using cannot show that screen, the row opens the matter instead and says why in plain words.
What may interrupt you
Only obligations notify
Every kind of task is an obligation, an idea, internal housekeeping, or something waiting on someone outside the firm. Only an obligation, a duty with a person or a clock behind it, may notify. A kind BRON does not recognize is treated as an obligation.
BRON's own analysis waits on its screen
A new line of attack, suggested authorities or a valuation that moved is the product's own analysis. It appears where that work happens and never rings, carries a badge or arrives in the morning email.
Reminders that cannot be muted
Deadline, privilege and conflict reminders cannot be muted. A reminder policy can hide a nag but never a fact, and muting a reminder does not resolve its task.
One row per condition
Each condition has one row. A re-scan refreshes the open row instead of adding another, and a row you dismissed or resolved is never reopened.
What the machine will not decide
A deadline reminder ends with a recorded act
A deadline's reminder stops only when someone records the deadline completed or cancelled. A missed deadline keeps showing as overdue, and an extended one moves to its new date.
Actions reload the record before approval
AvailableWhen you act on a row, BRON reloads the task and builds the action from the record, not from anything your screen sent. The action then goes through the same approval checks as everywhere else.
A paused matter still shows its dates
Undated work on a paused matter drops out of your day, because the pause was deliberate. Anything dated or on the clock is untouched, since pausing the work does not pause a statute of limitations.
Coming back to a matter
Return to unfinished work and upcoming deadlines
One summary answers what you were in the middle of, what others did since, and what you owe, including deadlines in the next seven days. It uses no AI model, and if any part cannot be read, it fails instead of giving a partial answer.
A line on why a row comes now
A firm can turn on a second line that says why a row comes now. A quote in it is kept only if it matches a recorded quote word for word, and the line is skipped if the firm's daily AI spending cannot be read.
What it reads from
- Open tasks on your matters
- Deadlines and their recorded statuses
- Approvals waiting on you
- What others did on the matter
Who can do what
- Counsel confirms the outcome, then reviews the private client-update draft and any draft time based on supplied duration. A continuance or dated ruling can suggest deadline recomputation; a trial day can suggest trial-book reconciliation. Bench notes and strategy are not copied into the client draft.
- Counsel opens the responsible screen and decides whether the sources support approval or another request. The task list organizes work without determining the merits.
- Acting on a row reloads the task, builds the action from the record and asks for the same confirmation as every other screen.
- A deadline reminder stops only when someone records the deadline completed or cancelled. A missed deadline keeps showing as overdue, and an extended one moves.
- Deadline, privilege and conflict reminders cannot be muted.
- A row you dismissed or resolved is never reopened by a re-scan.
- Only obligations notify. BRON's own analysis never rings, carries a badge or arrives in the morning email.
- Some kinds of task can be acted on from the row. The rest open the screen that owns the decision.
What it produces
- The daily brief
- The screen where each decision is made
- The approval checks
- The activity log
Limits
- The list shows recorded work. A matter nobody has recorded anything on raises nothing, and a read that failed is said, not hidden.
- Some kinds of task can be acted on from the row. The rest open the screen where the decision is made.
- The line on why a row comes now is off unless the firm turns it on.
What BRON will not do
Close a deadline reminder because it went stale.
Only completed and cancelled stop a reminder, and a person records both. A missed deadline keeps showing as overdue, and an extended one reminds again on its new date.
Act on what an automatic check found.
The check raises the question. Acting on it reloads the task, builds the action from the record and goes through the same approval checks.
Report a quiet day it could not read.
A source whose read failed counts as unknown, never as empty, so a zero under it is not a clear day.
Ring a bell for its own analysis.
BRON's suggestions belong on the screen where the work happens. They never ring, carry a badge or arrive in the morning email.
Mute a deadline, privilege or conflict reminder.
A reminder policy may hide a nag, never a fact. These reminders carry facts with consequences for the client.
Reopen a row you dismissed.
A re-scan refreshes only rows that are still open or snoozed. A row a person dismissed or resolved stays that way.
When something goes wrong
- A missing or failed hearing source remains unknown. No supplied or recorded duration means no guessed time; a recomputation suggestion is not a confirmed calendar date.
- A prepared update is private until attorney publication. Recording a debrief does not send, sign, calendar, pay or make the proposed ruling memory final.
- Re-recording the same appearance updates its outcome while retaining existing draft references. Counsel must still inspect those drafts; a corrected debrief does not mean an earlier draft was rewritten.
- No recorded task is not proof that all analysis, collection or source review has finished.
- Where BRON could not read something, the list shows unknown. A zero in a section that failed to load is not a clear day.
- If part of the lookup fails when you come back to a matter, BRON reports the failure rather than showing part of an answer.
- If BRON cannot read the day's AI spending, the line on why a row comes now is skipped.
- A quote in that line is kept only if it matches a recorded quote word for word.
- If a platform cannot show the screen a task belongs to, the row opens the matter and says why.
- A paused matter's undated work drops out of your day. Its dated work does not.
