Real citations. Not guesses.
The difference between a chat that remembers and a chat that looks it up.

- With FAI: It searches FAI's recordsAnd answers with the real citation attached.
Three things. From the record.
- JudgmentsCitation, court, parties, judges and headnote. One court or a range of years.
- StatutesEveryday words work: "murder" finds qatl-i-amd.
- Drafting templates70+ Pakistani templates, each listing the facts to collect first.
