Multiple perspectives on the same case
Every lawyer knows the first phase of a case: working through stacks of documents to map out the facts and parties involved. Thea takes over precisely this work. It transforms the question "What exactly happened and who was involved?" into a clear visual representation within minutes.
Thea analyzes documents and gives you multiple ways to understand them - like different views of the same database. Switch between perspectives depending on what you need: Timeline View shows what happened chronologically, Party Camps show who is on which side, the Relationship Map visualizes how key players are connected, and Split-View compares two perspectives side by side.
Through intelligent recognition of key players and their relationships, users can filter directly on relevant persons or organizations - essential for developing specific legal narratives in complex cases with many parties involved. What used to take days now happens in minutes.
Built for how lawyers work
New case? 200 documents? Client call in an hour? Upload everything to Thea. Check the timeline for the sequence of events. Check party camps to see who is involved. Check the relationship map to understand connections. Go into the conversation with informed questions and confidence that you have not missed anything.
For witness prep, click on a witness in the relationship map to see all their connections and timeline activity. Use split-view to compare what they claim (top lane) versus what documents show (bottom lane). Find the contradictions. Build your line of questioning.
Because Thea was developed by lawyers with design expertise, the visualizations are directly suitable for use in court cases and boardrooms. Annotate your timeline, add exhibit labels, export as JPEG for briefs.

Hours of clicking and dragging in PowerPoint. Not most lawyers favorite hobby. And you cannot hire a design firm like Patroon for every timeline. That is why we built Thea: from text to timeline in 3 clicks.
