AI reasoned from the standard. Your firm applies the judgment.

Illustrative review workflow. Current professional access is limited to an evaluation explicitly shared by its applicant.

Prepared applicants. A clearer starting point.

Applicants use Papers to evaluate their options and prepare an NIW case. A licensed attorney can assess the facts, explain the risks, and advise on filing. Software does not replace that judgment.

Your engagement, your terms

Your practice sets its engagement terms and manages the client relationship. Evaluation access does not establish representation.

Judgment stays with counsel

AI can evaluate, organize, and draft. The legal conclusions and filing strategy stay with your attorneys.

Sharing is consent-based

Applicants choose whether to share an evaluation and can revoke access. Their evidence files remain private.

Why our AI

We teach the AI how to think, not what to copy.

Papers evaluates the record against published criteria and explains where support is missing. The method is available for inspection, and the output still needs human review.

Checks the published criteria

Issue by issue against the controlling authority (the statute, the regulations, the agency's own policy, and the decisions that bind it), not paragraph by paragraph against a template.

Identifies evidence gaps

Tests the record against the burden of proof and asks what a neutral adjudicator would conclude. Adjudicator-aware, not advocate-only.

Makes assumptions visible

Built to learn how the law is actually applied, then tag every claim Documented, Inferred, or Unsupported.

Template-based drafting

Trained on sample filings

Prompted to match a style

Retrieval over the statutes and rules

Teaches the AI what to do. The output looks right.

Papers, engineered for legal reasoning

01

Reason from the controlling authority, issue by issue

02

Think like the attorney building the case

03

Think like the adjudicator testing the record

04

Tag every claim: Documented, Inferred, or Unsupported

Makes the reasoning available for review. Verify the evidence and conclusions.

Don't take our word for it. Read the reasoning.

Our evaluation method is open source. Inspect exactly how the AI reasons, or have your own attorneys and paralegals critique it.

Where judgment lives

Bring judgment to the questions AI leaves open.

A professional can question assumptions, verify evidence, and advise on the law. Applicants should review AI output and seek counsel when they need legal advice or representation.

AI prepares. Qualified counsel provides legal advice.

A first conversation

Start the conversation with an evaluation.

An applicant can use a Papers evaluation to identify questions for counsel. Sharing that evaluation is a separate choice; completing one does not send a lead or a case to a practice.

Evaluation access does not establish representation or transfer the applicant’s evidence files. The practice handles its own conflicts, engagement terms, and legal advice.

What your firm receives

Review the shared evaluation.

An approved professional receives access only to the evaluation the applicant selected. Evidence editing, petition review, and a shared case workspace are not included in this access.

Evaluation summary

Review the evaluation the applicant has chosen to share, including the evidence gaps and assumptions it identifies.

Assessment and supporting context

Specific permission

Access to an evaluation does not grant access to the applicant's entire case or documents. The applicant can revoke it.

Scoped, revocable access

Two ways to partner

Contact Papers about authorized evaluation review. The planned lawyer panel will provide a separate way for applicants to contact a practice; it is not yet publicly available.

Assist by Attorney

A curated lawyer panel and consultation requests are planned. Contact us about participating. Public access is not yet available.

A consultation request does not share case files
Representation is agreed with the practice

Confidentiality & trust

Your client's data stays your client's data.

Papers uses enterprise AI services and does not use client data to train models. Access to an evaluation requires the applicant’s explicit permission. Attorneys should assess confidentiality and privilege for their own matters.

Not the consumer tools

Papers runs on enterprise AI under contract, not the public apps whose terms permit training on inputs and disclosure to third parties.

Never used to train a model

Client information, and the work product built from it, is processed under enterprise data terms, not used to improve any model, and held inside Papers' own cloud.

Applicant-controlled access

The applicant owns the case record and chooses what to share. Evaluation access is separate from a consultation request and can be revoked.

And the lines we don't cross

No automatic handoff of client data
Not an open referral marketplace
Representation agreed with the practice
No guarantee of USCIS outcomes
Filing judgment stays with counsel

Papers is not a law firm and does not advise on privilege; your firm applies its own professional judgment. Data-processing terms and security details are available on request.
