Pay only for the citations we verify: failed or inconclusive cites need correction, $10 minimum per submission, no subscription.

How a ruling works
  1. 1

    Verify your bar, get $50 in credit

    Licensed attorneys only. We check your bar number against the public roster. Once you clear, we email your login, $50 of free credit, and your private link to the PII Shield. No card required to start.

  2. 2

    Install the PII Shield

    The download link comes in your verification email, so the shield stays with verified attorneys. It strips client PII in your browser before any draft leaves your machine, so nothing identifiable reaches our server. Install it and the portal unlocks. Free but required.

  3. 3

    Submit your draft, get the ruling

    Inside the portal you paste your AI-written brief. The full three-level ruling runs against the live corpus, then returns the verdict and a signed Audit Capsule for the file. You pay only for the citations that pass; failed and inconclusive cites need correction. Top up to keep going.

  4. 4

    Protect your client PII with other AI tools

    Kingsfield offers the same PII Shield protection across other cloud AI tools as custom builds. Available on request.

Step 1 · Verify your bar · $50 free to start

Step 2 · Install the PII Shield Unlocks after verification

We don't hand the shield to just anyone. Once your bar credentials clear, your verification email from WalkerNash includes a private link to download and install the Kingsfield PII Shield. It strips client PII in your browser before any draft leaves your machine, so nothing identifiable reaches our server. Install it, and the portal opens.

The benchmark

Three ways AI gets it wrong.
Kingsfield rules on all three.

Damien Charlotin's AI Hallucination Cases Database catalogs real court cases where a lawyer was sanctioned for AI-generated citation errors. Kingsfield rules on US case law once a flagged citation is pulled out of the order into a clean, checkable claim. Here is how the full database narrows to the set we could test, and how Kingsfield ruled on it.

How Kingsfield ruled on the 700

504/504
Fabricated citations
case doesn't exist
ruled correctly · 100%
92/92
Fabricated quotes
quote never written
ruled correctly · 100%
100/104
Misstated holdings
real case, wrong rule
ruled correctly · 96%

That is the whole 700: 504 fabricated cites + 92 fabricated-quote rows + 104 misstated-holding cases. Kingsfield ruled 696 of 700 correctly (99.4%): every cite and every quote, and 100 of 104 holdings. The 4 holding misses are topical over-accepts, where the opinion really is about the subject but does not establish the specific rule the brief claimed.

Honest scope: this measures Kingsfield's ruling layer given extracted claims, not an end-to-end "feed it a whole brief" production run. The 700 splits into three checks: a cite to a case that does not exist, a quote that was never written, and a real case cited for a holding it does not contain. The first two are clean by construction and run at 100%; misstated holdings is a judgment call, runs at 96% after our cite-kind routing fix, and is the layer we are still hardening. One quote row the database had mislabeled, a real quote from In re Innovatio, Kingsfield correctly accepted; we also dropped Will v. Michigan, 491 U.S. 58, tagged fabricated but a real Supreme Court decision Kingsfield ruled real. Hallucinated cases from the Charlotin database we could not pose cleanly (cites buried in PDFs, no recoverable quotes, ordinance cites not indexed) were excluded.

How it works

A companion to your AI.
Not a replacement.

Kingsfield does not write your brief. It rules on the citations the brief depends on, against the authoritative primary-law corpus, over MCP.

Per citation

Independent adjudication

A different model, a different corpus, a different incentive than the one that drafted the brief. Self-check is not verification. Kingsfield rules from the outside.

Fail-closed

PII never reaches the cloud

Client identifiers are tokenized on your own machine. A fail-closed firewall at the judge's door turns away anything PII-shaped before it can be read.

Signed

A verdict you can defend

Every ruling is a signed Audit Capsule: SHA3-256 hash chain plus an Ed25519 signature, roughly 4 KB, PII-free. It travels with the brief.

Three checks

Three ways AI lies

A fabricated case, a fake quote, and a wrong holding are three different failures. Kingsfield runs all three. Tools that only check whether a cite exists miss the other two.

BYO-LLM · MCP

Keep your stack

Harvey, CoCounsel, Lexis+, Westlaw, Claude, GPT. Whatever drafts your work, Kingsfield reaches it as an MCP server. You keep your keys and your workflow.

Good law

Still good law

A real case can still be overruled. Kingsfield checks whether the authority is current, not just whether it once existed, and flags cites that no longer hold.

Two products, one boundary

Kingsfield adjudicates.
The PII Tokenizer secures.

Each has one job. The judge and the full corpus are hosted once, so no firm carries the hardware. Client identifiers are tokenized on your machine before anything is sent, so no client identifier ever leaves it.

PII Tokenizer
Browser shield, free · custom build for firms

A tool we built in-house to keep privileged client information off our server. The browser shield that gates the judge is free and required: it tokenizes each draft before it reaches us, so no client identifier ever arrives and the capsule comes back PII-free, with nothing to map back. Firms whose PII currently goes to other cloud AI tools in the clear can ask about a custom build that protects their whole workflow, including the return leg that restores the real identities from each tool's response locally, with the token-to-PII map never leaving your machine.

PII Tokenizer · before egress

Toggle to see what leaves your machine. CLIENT_0001 is what Kingsfield rules on; it never sees the client, and the verdict capsule comes back PII-free, so nothing needs mapping back.

Bill it to the client Recoverable cost

Each ruling is a cost you advance on the matter and itemize like a filing fee or a PACER charge. The client pays for the verification, so a clean draft costs your practice nothing net.

PII Shield Free · required

The shield that strips client PII in your browser is free and required, so nothing identifiable ever reaches our server. Firms that want the same protection across their other cloud AI tools can ask about a custom build.

Kingsfield is a citation-verification tool, not a law firm. It gives no legal advice and forms no attorney-client relationship. A pass is not a guarantee that a citation is correct or good law; you make the final decision on every result. See the Terms of use and Legal & limitations.
