Questions advocates ask first.

No case citation reaches you unless the cited judgment is in the retrieved record. An authority that cannot be verified against the retrieved text is stripped to doctrine in a memo or research note, or removed and replaced by a visible marker in a document. Every check is logged.

The Supreme Court of India from 1950 and the Calcutta High Court from 2018, with 605 older judgments back to 1873, in full text, to 20 October 2026. A real judgment of another court will not be found, and not found in corpus is not fabricated. The verdict is either verified against the Supreme Court and Calcutta High Court record, or outside corpus — unverifiable by us.

Yes. Every judgment and every statute section a memo cites is checked against the text in our record — the judgment itself, or the Act as in force on your date. A citation that fails is removed or marked, never presented as verified. The check proves that a cited judgment is in the record and that the words quoted from it are there, and that a cited statute section exists in the Act as loaded and was in force on your date. The record holds 880 Acts — 829 central Acts with the Constitution and both generations of the criminal codes, 35 Maharashtra Acts, 10 West Bengal Acts and 6 from Karnataka, Telangana and Delhi. A State Act we have not loaded (most states other than West Bengal and Maharashtra today) is marked “not in our library”, not “wrong”. It cannot be verified until that Act is in the library.

The check proves that a cited judgment is in the record and that the words quoted from it are there, and that a cited statute section exists in the Act as loaded and was in force on your date. It does not guarantee that a judgment or a section stands for the proposition it is cited for. An independent second reader gives a verdict on each grounded proposition, but its miss rate has not yet been measured on a public benchmark. Read the authority. The certificate tells you which kind of check was made.

No. Extract numbers are ours, not the court’s paragraph numbers. Verify against the certified report before filing.

No. CICERRO is a research aid. The advocate signs what is filed.

Only your account. This is enforced in the application on every request and by row-level security in the database itself, which is switched on in production.

Compute and the database are in Mumbai. To draft a memo, your query, the retrieved passages and any attached document are sent to third-party language-model providers outside India; we do not yet have zero-data-retention terms with them, so they may keep what they receive under their standard terms. For privileged matters, bring the legal question rather than the client’s file: anonymise the facts and do not upload unredacted client documents. The Security & data page has the detail.

Request it on this site. Access is by invitation, one address at a time. An invited address creates an account with an email and password; there is no third-party sign-in.

Nothing during the private beta. Verification will never be tiered by price; plans will differ in capacity and breadth only.

No. CICERRO is a tool for practitioners; it does not publish profiles or solicit clients on anyone’s behalf.
