TrialMate is trial preparation for attorneys who do their own prep. Build the case chronology. Every fact gets a date, the witnesses who can speak to it, and the exhibits that prove it. Mark the facts in dispute and filter to them in one tap. Prepare every witness. Mark each witness as yours or theirs. Direct examination is drafted as open questions; cross examination as leading questions, one fact each. Write your own, note the page and line behind each one, and tick them off as you ask them at trial. Work from your documents. Import a PDF, a scan or a photo, and TrialMate reads the text, running OCR on scanned pages. Summaries quote the document, and any quotation that cannot be found in the text is marked so you check it before relying on it. Draft openings, closings and motion outlines from your own record. Drafts are built from your chronology and notes. The AI is told not to cite cases, and any case or rule citation that appears anyway is marked unverified for you to check. The Federal Rules of Evidence, on your device. Search the official text with no signal, which is what a courtroom usually gives you. The amendment to Rule 801 effective December 1, 2026 takes effect in the app on that date. Private by design. Your cases stay on your device and in your own private iCloud backup, which you can switch off if your firm keeps client material out of the cloud. AI features run only when you tap them, only material from the case you are working in is sent, and it goes only to AI providers that keep no copy of it. No advertising, no tracking, no account. Protect your work. A deleted case is kept for 30 days, on your device and in iCloud, and can be restored. Export any case as a Trial Preparation Report PDF, or as data you keep. Free for two active cases with the whole app inside them. Pro removes the case limit and unlocks the AI features: $49.99 a month, or $399.99 a year, which saves about 33 percent. Pro starts with a one week free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple account at confirmation of purchase, or when the free trial ends. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple account settings. TrialMate is a preparation aid, not legal advice. Check every draft and citation before you rely on it.
