I'm not associated with them at all, other than once emailing the founder best wishes.
- vqc 10y agoCasetext and Judicata are great companies working on searching through judicial opinions. There's a lot to be said about PACER and publishing state judicial opinions. Suffice it to say, those companies could probably save a lot of time on parsing and focus on other problems instead if judicial opinions were released with some structured information, e.g. party names and procedural posture. Open Law Library makes it possible for legislatures to, among other things, publish their laws in structured formats. One thing to consider is that on a day-to-day basis, an individual might be impacted more by city/county/state law than by federal law.
