Scheduling Hearings

Vilulia Arbitrate supports video hearings through the platform's built-in Daily.co video infrastructure. Sessions are scheduled from the Video tab in the case record. When a session is scheduled, all participants receive automatic notifications with the date, time, and join details. If you have a calendar integration connected, a calendar event is created automatically.

Scheduling a hearing

Video sessions are scheduled from the Video tab within the case record. Click Schedule Session, set the title, start time, and end time. Participant IDs are required; if left empty, the system auto-populates from the case's participant list. All parties on the case are notified automatically. A Daily.co room is created automatically and join links are included in the notification. Recording is optional and must be enabled per session; AI transcription is always enabled and saved to the case file when the session ends.

Calendar integration

When a hearing is scheduled, Vilulia creates a calendar event in any connected Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar for each user who has connected their individual calendar. The event includes the hearing title, Daily.co join link, and a reminder before the session. Calendar events update or delete automatically if the hearing is rescheduled or cancelled. Outlook Calendar integration is available on Professional and Enterprise plans only.

Video hearings

Video hearings run in the platform's built-in HD video environment (powered by Daily.co). Each hearing gets a private room URL. Features included in every session: AI transcription (always enabled — saved automatically to the case file on session end), optional session recording, screen sharing, breakout rooms for caucus, and in-session chat. Rooms expire after the scheduled end time.

AI hearing preparation

The Prepare Hearing AI tool (Professional and above) reviews the case record and generates a structured hearing preparation package — witness list, exhibit index, issues outline, and time estimates. Accepts optional hearing date, hearing type (evidentiary, preliminary, or status), and special issues as input.

The Suggest Hearing Questions tool generates tailored questions for a specific witness based on their name and the case context. The Analyze Pre-Hearing Briefs tool reads submitted briefs and distills the core contested issues before the hearing begins. All three tools produce starting-point analysis for arbitrator review.
