@CaseViewerApp, unlike its creator, is very impressed with Justice Gorsuch’s opinion in the tariffs case.

Here's a quick video of the new Table of Contents feature in Case Viewer — now available for Mac, iPad, and iPhone (caseviewer.app). It extracts the opinion's actual heading structure, uses an LLM to make descriptive section labels, and maps the argument structure too.

If @CaseViewerApp isn't working, download the latest update (0.9.6) from within the app & it should be fixed. (There's a server outage for @CaselawAccess, and a bug in Case Viewer's handling of that error was making all searches fail as a result.)

New in 0.9.5 (early channel): • Distinct search modes for cases and statutes (switch with Tab key) • Tooltips with case question and panel information • Improved find interface

If you use @CaseViewerApp, enable the 'early channel' in the dropdown menu to try a new update (0.9.4) that adds informative tooltips to most links to cases & statutes (with more info to come someday—suggestions welcome)

How do we live in a world where the best native legal research app on Windows, Mac, or iOS is @beidelson's @CaseViewerApp? No shade at all to that truly excellent product, but that's one guy doing a side gig. This is a multibillion dollar market!

A student I didn't know stopped me outside daycare this morning to say they use & love @CaseViewerApp. Somehow that never happens with my articles! If you're a law student/prof getting ready for the semester (and you use a Mac), check it out! @Harvard_Law caseviewer.app

This is a great app! Strongly endorse.
Case Viewer, my macOS app for fast access to cases (& statutes), still doesn't have full-blown documentation, but I posted a demo video here: caseviewer.app. Now with jumping to pincites, fast Word export, PDFs of reporters, copy w/ citation, & more. Free if you want!
