What changed in Pundora
What changed, when, in plain words. A line appears here only once the change is live.
Court holidays for 27 courts
Every matter now follows its own court's calendar: the Supreme Court, the Delhi High Court and district courts, and 24 more High Courts and district judiciaries, each from the court's own notification. A holiday in Delhi is no longer assumed in Gurugram. Courts whose calendars could not be read have none; nothing is guessed.
The Constitution, and a research page with no matter
The Constitution of India is held article by article from the Legislative Department's official edition. A new Research page answers a question about the law without opening a matter: a citation, parties or a case number finds a judgment; a section or article is read out; a question in words is answered from the judgments.
A guided tour on a sample matter
A new chamber can walk through Pundora on an invented cheque-bounce matter, including a draft with one real and one invented citation whose check runs for real. It is deleted in one click.
The citation-check report reads like a document
One labelled table per reference: what the draft says beside what Pundora found, with missing quotations on their own row. Back now means one step back, everywhere.
Exact phrases in research
Words in quotation marks are searched as that exact phrase, in that order, across every judgment; the Supreme Court is searched first.
Petitions decided together count once
Companion orders of the same court, day and parties take one place in a research answer, with the others listed under it.
Long jobs run behind the screen
A draft, a research answer, a review and a citation check are made in the background; the page fills in by itself while the advocate works elsewhere.
Access by waitlist
Sign-up became a waitlist; chambers are let in one by one and onboarded personally.
Every judgment is read inside Pundora
A judgment found through a licensed source is fetched once into Pundora and opened in its own reader, with the licence credit where it is due.
Answers from the judgments
"Answer from the judgments" composes an answer of up to six points, each carrying the judgment's own words; code finds every quoted word in the passage it points at or drops the point. No passages, no answer: "no authority found" costs nothing.
The check reads what a draft claims
The citation check now sets a cited sub-section's own words beside the draft's sentence, finds Pundora's own copy of a judgment before trusting anyone else's, and says "not confirmed" with what was searched, never that a judgment does not exist. A leading Supreme Court judgment had been wrongly marked unconfirmed in the founder's test; that false alarm was treated as the fault to fix first.
Research and Authorities on every matter
Find a judgment by citation, parties, case number or distinctive words and read it; authorities are filed under the matter and offered to the drafting screen. Long drafts are read in full, in parts.
The Supreme Court by name
All Supreme Court judgments carry their parties, dates and Supreme Court Reports citations; a party's name finds a judgment in a fifth of a second across 18 million.
Word export in the Delhi High Court's format
A4, Times New Roman 14, 1.5 spacing, quotations at 12, the prescribed margins. A consistency read finds two dates for one document, totals that do not add up, and contradictions that quote both passages.
First drafts and the citation check
First drafts in the chamber's own format from confirmed facts only, with gaps left as visible blanks; a citation check on any draft, including one written elsewhere; a library of the chamber's own formats, form only, never facts across matters.
Built for a hundred chambers at once
Every screen now needs one request to the database; a stress test at 100 chambers, 10,000 matters and 250,000 events found and removed a sixty-second lag.
The evening check-in
At 8 pm Pundora asks on WhatsApp whether anything happened in a matter; a typed reply is filed in the advocate's words, and a date in it goes on the calendar only after a yes.
Scanned pages and photographs
A picture of a page is read on Pundora's own machine in Mumbai; JPEG, PNG and iPhone photographs can be uploaded; a page read from a picture is marked as such for ever.
The full text of the judgments
The full text of the High Courts' and the Supreme Court's judgments, 1950 to today, was loaded from the courts' own open archives during September, and is topped up every night.
A daily reading allowance, and plain words
Each chamber has a daily allowance of AI reading; a long document pauses and resumes after midnight. Every message an advocate can see was rewritten in plain words, and a test now fails the build on technical vocabulary.
Ask a matter anything
A chat about one matter, answered from its own file with sources first; events added by hand carry a permanent "added by you" mark.
The index of 18 million judgments, and the bare acts
Every High Court judgment since 1950 indexed; the core litigation acts loaded section by section from India Code, with the official tables mapping the old criminal codes to the new.
