Arbitration

Evidence and Exhibit Tracking

Vilulia Arbitrate supports evidence and exhibit management through the case record. Exhibits are added through the Exhibits endpoint with a structured exhibit number, description, offering party, and document URL. AI tools can summarize individual exhibits, assess evidence weight across the full record, and build a chronological timeline from case documents — helping arbitrators navigate large evidence sets.

Adding exhibits

Exhibits are added through the case exhibits endpoint. Required fields:

exhibit_number — alphanumeric label (e.g., A-1, B-5); letters, numbers, hyphens, and spaces only; max 20 characters
exhibit_description — description of the exhibit
offering_party — claimant or respondent
document_url — S3 URL of the uploaded document

Documents are stored with S3 server-side encryption and associated with the case record. Exhibit access is gated to the arbitration_hearings feature, which requires Professional plan or above.

AI evidence summarization

The Summarize Evidence AI tool (Professional and above) condenses a single exhibit into its key facts. You provide the document text (required, up to 100,000 characters), and optionally the document name, type (contract, correspondence, etc.), and a focus mode: general, testimony_summary, or brief_summary. The tool returns a structured summary for arbitrator review.

AI timeline construction

The Construct Timeline AI tool extracts dates and events from case documents and builds a chronological timeline. You can provide additional events not captured in the documents, and choose whether to include procedural events (included by default). The resulting timeline gives the arbitrator a clear picture of the sequence of events underlying the dispute.

AI evidence analysis

The Analyze Evidence Weight AI tool evaluates all evidence in the record, flagging which exhibits are likely to carry the most weight and which may face credibility challenges. This analysis runs at the case level and does not require selecting individual documents. Results are persisted as an AI analysis record on the case for later reference.
