PDF based legal research
PDF based legal research
Our intuitive tool pulls together information from different databases and so enables the user to see the connections and influences EU case law has on national case law.
Simply drag-and-drop a file into our search window. We will analyse the document, find and link up all cited legal sources and permit the user to download all the original sources in one smart PDF-document. Additionally we create an interactive visualisation, which can be explored and downloaded.
Of course, it‘s never that easy. So here is a quick guide explaining how The Smartfiles Network works and how it should be read.
The red-rimmed circle represents the original PDF
The turquoise circles are the the referenced case law
The bigger the circle, the more often a document has been cited
Explore the relevance: within your network or EU wide
Click on a circle to get more information (metadata)
We have taken the PDF file and made it smart. Our PDF convolute looks just like any other, but it contains all case law that was cited within. By clicking on a reference, the desired case law decision is shown. This function also allows the user to work offline. The downloaded PDF convolute is fully shareable, and can be forwarded to team members.

Based in Vienna, Austria, the multi-award-winning legal tech start-up LeReTo was founded. After a first product for the legal research market, process optimisation tools followed. Since then, the team has grown, but the passion for digitalisation, law, data and just making things easier for people has stayed the same.
