The thesis

Commercial trials turn on damages and credibility. Both are now briefed in minutes

Damages experts carry the technical load; fact witnesses carry the credibility load. Supreme Mind returns the same brief for both, in minutes. The credentialed expert still testifies. The strategic read before retaining one no longer has to wait.

How it works

One brief per matter, grounded in the record

One brief in four sections, every quote verified against the public record.

Create a matter

Set up the case and upload the file.

Add experts

Add the opposing expert, or your own.

Ground it

Ground it in your case documents: expert reports, depositions and filings.

Generate the brief

Opinion, cross weaknesses, Daubert challenges and settlement range, in minutes.

Verbatim citation verification

Every quote checked against the public record. Unverifiable quotes are dropped.

Cross-examination practice

Rehearse the cross against the expert before the deposition.

Examine the record

Ask the case file a question and get an answer cited to the page, or told the record is silent.

Expert-report stress test

Find the weak points in an opposing report, or red-team your own expert's draft.

Exports built for the file

Word, PDF, a Daubert-motion outline and a cross outline, with history kept.

Named-expert overlay

Optionally add a named expert's public judicial record. Off by default.

Who gets an expert

Expert strategy for every matter you take on

Which matters get a read

A senior expert's first read runs to tens of thousands of dollars, so it is bought only for the matters that can carry it.

When, and how often, you get a read

Without, an expert weighs in a few times over a matter that can run for years. With, you can ask any day, at any hour, and have an answer in minutes.

Without: about 1 in 8 federal cases ever deposes an expert
