AI features and limits

Understand what Sera can help with — and the boundaries that keep AI use safe and honest.

Overview

Sera can read available text, organize materials, suggest timeline structure, highlight gaps, and answer questions in plain language. She cannot practice law, guarantee outcomes, access systems outside your case, or replace your judgment or your lawyer’s advice.

Why this feature exists

Clear limits build trust. Knowing the boundary helps you use Sera confidently for preparation without confusing assistance with legal counsel.

Step-by-step

  1. 1

    Use Sera for organization and clarity

    Upload documents, Review with Sera, ask plain-language questions, and follow recommended next steps when useful.

  2. 2

    Verify before you rely on something important

    Open source documents for dates, quotes, and obligations. AI can miss or misread unclear pages.

  3. 3

    Keep legal decisions with qualified counsel

    Strategy, filings, and advice belong with a lawyer licensed in your jurisdiction.

  4. 4

    Read the AI disclaimer

    Review the product AI disclaimer so expectations stay aligned as features evolve.

Best practices

  • Prefer clearer documents for better AI reading quality.
  • Separate “Sera suggested” from “my lawyer advised.”
  • Don’t paste sensitive materials into tools outside SeraCase when your case already holds them securely.

Productivity tips

  • Use AI to draft questions for your lawyer, then edit in your own words.
  • Ask Sera for summaries, then confirm critical lines in Evidence.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming Sera has read a file that is still processing.
  • Relying on AI for court deadlines without checking the order.
  • Expecting Sera to know facts that were never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

Is Sera always correct?

No system is perfect. Sera can misread unclear text or miss context. Always verify important details in your documents.

Does using AI create attorney-client privilege with Sera?

Sera is an AI product feature, not your lawyer. Privilege questions are legal questions — ask a qualified attorney about your situation.
