Case Canvas

Every claim,
mapped to its proof.

An interactive graph connects each criterion to the evidence behind it, with evidence-strength badges applied consistently everywhere in the product — and gap detection that catches what's missing before an officer does.

01

What the graph shows.

01

One graph, every criterion to its proof.

Criteria, claims, and evidence connect in one interactive graph — architect's-pen curves, not a tangle of straight lines, with the items that back several criteria marked as soon as the graph draws.

02

See the gaps in your evidence chronology.

The same exhibits laid out along a real timeline instead of a graph — a highlighted gap band shows exactly how long it's been since a criterion's most recent evidence, the kind of hole a graph view alone won't surface.

Share the graph, not platform access.

Generate a read-only share link and your attorney opens the exact same graph with an Attorney View badge — no account, no login, no platform access required on their end.

A list of exhibits doesn't show you what's actually connected.

A claim can rest on exactly one source.

A petition can read as well-documented while one of its central claims depends on a single, unverified exhibit — invisible in a document list, obvious in a graph.

A strong exhibit set can still be stale.

Twelve exhibits can look thorough while the most recent one supporting a given criterion is over a year old — a document list alone won't show you when.

Sharing your case with your attorney shouldn't need a login.

Exporting a static PDF loses the interactivity; giving full platform access is more than most attorneys want. Neither is a real answer.

03

Why a chatbot can't map your case.

A guess and a graded, evidence-linked map are not the same kind of answer.

A chatbot has no concept of a claim graph.

General-purpose AI reasons over the text you paste in — it has no structural model connecting a claim to the specific exhibit that supports it, so it can't tell you where that connection is missing.

It can't show which items back several criteria.

Seeing that one exhibit supports two or more criteria requires tracking claim-to-evidence relationships explicitly — a conversation doesn't do that by default.

It has no sense of your evidence's age.

Without a real chronology, "you have strong evidence" can't distinguish a criterion supported by last month's letter from one resting on a source from three years ago.

See the claim that rests on one unverified source.

04

How the canvas builds.

01

The graph builds from your Case File.

Criteria and the exhibits behind them appear from the same Case File every Merito tool reads. A criterion with nothing behind it yet shows as still gathering.

02

Exhibits that back several criteria are marked.

The graph marks each exhibit that carries more than one criterion, so you can see where strengthening one piece lifts the most.

03

Switch to the timeline.

The same evidence, by date. A stretch of more than two years with no new exhibit shows as a gap band.

04

Share a read-only link with your attorney.

Choose Attorney View, create the link, and revoke it whenever you like. They need no account to open it.

Every step,
one growing graph.

The canvas builds straight from your Case File, then the items that back several criteria and every timeline gap surface as you go. Nothing is added by hand that the record hasn't already shown.
