The need
Finding the right document and the right version.
When DHN’s staff needed a document from an earlier case, finding it was only part of the job. They also had to work out which copy was current. I built Depot to make previous work easier to find and keep its version history attached.
What I built
Previous work stays available.
Staff can start from a template or an existing document. Depot keeps the earlier versions, along with the sharing and access settings for the file.
A search can use an exact phrase or look for related material written in different words. Files can be organized by category, using document rules or optional AI sorting.

Attorney decides
Choose which changes to accept
Local and connected AI features are optional and depend on the application’s configuration.
Implementation
Document review and the services it uses.
Attorney review
When an attorney reviews edits, Depot can summarize the tracked changes and show relevant clauses from previous work. The attorney chooses what to accept.
Local and connected services
Depot can use an AI model in the office or connect to an outside service. Choosing an outside service for reading, sorting, or review can send document content to it. I configure those options along with the file storage and access settings.
