Docket and filing tracking
Watch courts or parties of interest and collect new filings, orders and hearing dates as they are posted, with the documents downloaded and attached to each structured record for your team to review.

What we scrape in legal and compliance
Court dockets, regulator notices, legislation trackers, IP registries and sanctions lists, collected into structured records with their source documents.
Legal sources are public by design and painful by implementation: court portals with per-county search forms, regulators publishing notices as scanned PDFs, registries with rate limits and captchas. We build scrapers that work within those constraints, run them on a schedule, parse documents into the fields that matter and keep every record linked to its original URL and filing date. The result is a searchable record of what was published, when and where, ready for your own review process.

Use cases
Jobs we are usually asked for
Regulatory notice collection
Pull enforcement actions, consultations and guidance from a list of regulators across jurisdictions into one schema, so your team reviews one feed instead of checking thirty websites by hand every morning.
IP registry extraction
Scrape trademark and patent records for a set of owners, classes or keywords, including status changes and oppositions, refreshed on a schedule and keyed on the registry number for easy joins.
Questions
About legal & compliance scraping
Can you scrape PACER or other paid court systems?
We only scrape sources that are freely accessible without a paid account, or on your account with your permission and within the service's terms. Scoping tells you which applies for each court.
How do you handle scanned PDFs?
Documents go through OCR and layout-aware parsing, with a confidence score per field and the original file kept. Low-confidence records are flagged for human review rather than silently included.
Can you cover multiple jurisdictions in one schema?
Yes. Each source gets its own parser and all map to a shared set of fields, with jurisdiction-specific extras kept in a structured column so nothing is lost.
Is the data suitable for legal advice?
It is a collection of public records, delivered accurately and on time. Interpretation remains with your lawyers or compliance team; we make sure they are looking at the complete picture.
