Why Two Products?

You would not build a law library inside your file room. You would build them next to each other and walk between them whenever you needed to.

That is the idea behind Adjudica and Glassy.

Adjudica (app.adjudica.ai) is your document-centric platform. It is the case file room and the drafting desk. You upload documents, the AI reads and classifies them, you fill court forms, generate demand letters, build timelines, and manage your cases. If it involves a specific document, it happens in Adjudica.

Glassy (glassy.adjudica.ai) is your conversational AI assistant. It is the research library and the strategy session. You ask questions, run calculations, prepare for hearings, analyze settlements, and think through case strategy. If it involves thinking about documents, it happens in Glassy.

They share data. They do not duplicate work. If Adjudica is where you do the paperwork, Glassy is where you think about the paperwork.

Think of it this way: Adjudica is your paralegal. It processes, organizes, fills out forms, and keeps the files in order. Glassy is the associate down the hall. You walk over, drop into a chair, and say "What do you think about this QME report?" They are different roles. They are better when they talk to each other. And neither of them files anything without your sign-off.

Could we have built one product that does everything? Sure. And it would have done everything adequately and nothing well. By keeping them separate but connected, each product does its job at the level you need it to. Your case file room does not need a chat interface. Your research assistant does not need a document processing pipeline. But they both need to see the same case data.

Both products are built by Glass Box Solutions. Same engineering team, same security standards, same philosophy: the AI does the homework, you make the decisions. Neither product replaces your judgment. One organizes the materials. The other helps you reason about them. You are still the attorney at both desks.

Quick Start

Already using both products and just want the short version? Here it is.

  1. Upload documents in Adjudica (app.adjudica.ai) -- the Mailroom processes, classifies, and indexes them
  2. Analyze and strategize in Glassy (glassy.adjudica.ai) -- skills, chat, research, and calculations
  3. Generate drafts and forms in Adjudica -- templates, AI Fill, and the document editor
  4. Review and refine in Glassy -- ask it to strengthen arguments, check reasoning, spot gaps
  5. Finalize and export in Adjudica -- preview, approve, and file

Documents in. Thinking in between. Documents out.

That is the core loop. Documents go in through Adjudica. Thinking happens in Glassy. Finished work comes out through Adjudica. Read on for the details, or just start using them -- you will find the rhythm quickly.

Before You Start

To get the most from both products working together, make sure you have:

You do not need to connect the two products yourself. Glassy and Adjudica are connected automatically at the infrastructure level. There is no settings page, no API key to enter, no toggle to flip. If you have accounts in both products, the connection is already live. The only integration you set up manually is MerusCase (see below) — and even that only needs to be done once in either product to work in both.

If you have not set up either product yet, start with the individual guides first: Adjudica User Guide and Glassy User Guide. Come back here once you are up and running in both.

If you use MerusCase, connect it in either product -- see the MerusCase Integration section below. The connection carries to both products automatically.

Already using both products and comfortable with each one individually? Skip ahead to When to Use Which Product for the decision matrix, or Workflow Scenarios for step-by-step walkthroughs of common tasks. The Tips section at the end is worth reading even if you skip everything else.

What They Share

The products are separate applications with separate logins, but they share three things that matter: your MerusCase connection, the legal knowledge base, and the PD calculation engine.

This means you set things up once and both products benefit. No duplicate configuration. No conflicting data. One foundation, two products built on top of it.

MerusCase Integration

Both products connect to MerusCase through a shared OAuth integration. Set it up once in either product, and both have access.

If you have already connected MerusCase in Adjudica, Glassy can see it. If you connected in Glassy first, Adjudica can see it. One handshake, two products. No need to explain your MerusCase credentials to two different systems. We have all had enough of that particular joy.

Setup: Go to Settings in either product, find the MerusCase integration section, and click Connect. You will be redirected to MerusCase to authorize access. Once complete, both products can access your matters and documents.

If your firm has multiple users, each user authorizes their own connection -- firm-level access is not shared between individual accounts for security reasons. This means if a team member leaves the firm, revoking their MerusCase connection in one place revokes it everywhere.

Knowledge Base

Both products draw from the same legal knowledge system: 3,467+ WCAB panel decisions, Labor Code sections, regulations, and legal principles specific to California Workers' Compensation.

Same library. Two different ways to access it. The knowledge is maintained and updated centrally, so both products always have the same legal foundation. When a new significant panel decision comes down, it gets added to the knowledge base once and both products can reference it immediately. You do not need to update anything on your end. The library restocks itself.

PD Calculator

The same permanent disability calculation engine powers both products.

You do not need to calculate in one product and re-enter in the other. Same engine, same results. The math does not change depending on which door you walk through.

Why this matters: In workers' compensation, consistency across your documents is not optional. If your demand letter says 47% PD and your MSC statement says 44%, the defense attorney will notice. Opposing counsel always notices.

When both products use the same calculation engine, the numbers match. Every time. From the Glassy skill to the Adjudica form to the final PDF.

How It Works (The Glass Box)

When Glassy needs case-specific information, it queries Adjudica's API in real time. It does not store a copy of your documents -- it asks Adjudica, gets the answer, and uses it. Think of it as Glassy picking up the phone and calling Adjudica's file room: "What does the QME report say about work restrictions?" The file room finds the relevant passage and reads it back. Your data stays in one place (Adjudica) and is accessed on demand (by Glassy).

What this means for you: One source of truth for case data, no duplication, no sync issues.

Not sure? Here is the rule of thumb: if it involves a specific document, go to Adjudica. If it involves thinking about documents, go to Glassy. When in doubt, you are probably thinking -- open Glassy.

A few rows in this table might surprise you. Why is "create and track tasks" in Glassy and not Adjudica? Because tasks tend to come out of conversations. You are talking through a case with Glassy, and you realize you need to request medical records or schedule a depo. Say "create a task" and Glassy adds it to your board, linked to the case. It is faster than switching products to create a to-do item.

And why is "build a case timeline" in Adjudica and not Glassy? Because timelines are built from documents. Every time Adjudica processes a document, it extracts dates and events automatically. The timeline assembles itself as you upload. Glassy can read the timeline and reason about it -- "What happened between the date of injury and the first medical appointment?" -- but the raw material lives in Adjudica because that is where the documents are.

A Day Using Both Products

This is not a hypothetical. This is what a typical day looks like for attorneys already using both products. Your day will not look exactly like this -- some days are all documents, some days are all strategy, and some days are depositions and phone calls with no AI in sight. But when you do sit down at the keyboard, this is the general flow.

Morning: Adjudica for Documents and Drafts

Start your day in Adjudica. This is the operational half. Documents come in overnight, workflows run while you sleep, and the Review Queue collects everything that needs your attention.

This is the operational part of your day. Thirty minutes here saves hours of manual processing. Adjudica handles the paperwork so you can get to the thinking faster.

Midday: Glassy for Research and Analysis

After the morning document work, switch to Glassy. This is the strategic half. You have processed the inputs -- now it is time to think about what they mean.

This is the strategic part of your day. Glassy does not just answer questions -- it helps you think through problems. It is the difference between looking up a statute and having a conversation about what the statute means for your case. The AI does not tell you what to do. It helps you see the angles you might have missed.

Afternoon: Combined for Strategy

By the afternoon, you are using both products together. This is where the integration pays off. You have the documents organized in Adjudica and the analytical context loaded in Glassy. Now you work across both.

By the afternoon, you are using both products like they are two sides of the same desk. Which they are. The boundary between them starts to feel less like a wall and more like a doorway you walk through without thinking about it.

Workflow Scenarios

These are end-to-end workflows for common WC tasks. Each one shows exactly where Adjudica and Glassy fit, step by step. They are written in the order you would actually do them, not in the order that makes the products look good. Skip to the scenario that matches your current situation.

Scenario 1: New Case Setup

A new client walks in with a stack of medical records, an application for adjudication, and a complicated injury history. Here is the workflow:

  1. Adjudica: Create the matter (or import it from MerusCase if the case management system already has it). Enter the basic case information -- parties, ADJ number, date of injury, body parts.
  2. Adjudica: Upload all initial documents to the Mailroom. Drop the stack in -- the AI classifies each document (medical report, legal filing, correspondence, wage document) and routes it to the matter. You can upload everything at once. The AI sorts it out.
  3. Glassy: While documents process, open Glassy and create a case note. Record your initial impressions from the intake: client's description of injury, employment history, prior claims, any red flags. Save these to Memory so Glassy has context for future conversations about this case.
  4. Adjudica: Once documents are processed (usually 5-15 minutes depending on volume), review the AI-generated timeline. It will have extracted dates of injury, medical appointments, legal filings, and employer actions from the uploaded documents. Check it against your intake notes.
  5. Glassy: Ask Glassy: "Based on the initial documents, what are the key issues in this case?" It reads the case data from Adjudica and gives you an issue-spotting analysis -- what is strong, what is contested, what needs more evidence.

Total time: 15-20 minutes of your attention, spread across the processing window. Compare that to reading every document cover to cover. The AI read them. You review the AI's work. That is the model. And you still read the critical documents yourself -- but now you know which ones are critical before you start.

Scenario 2: Preparing a Settlement Demand

The case has matured. Discovery is complete, the QME has reported, and it is time to make a demand. This is the workflow that shows both products at their best -- Adjudica handling the document assembly, Glassy handling the strategic analysis. Here is the two-product workflow that turns a week of preparation into an afternoon.

  1. Adjudica: Verify the timeline is complete. All relevant documents should be uploaded and processed -- QME reports, medical records, wage statements, and the panel QME selection. If anything is missing, upload it now. The demand is only as good as the data behind it.
  2. Glassy: Run the Settlement Analysis skill. It pulls case facts from Adjudica and evaluates the current posture -- what the medical evidence supports, where the defense will push back, and what comparable cases have resolved for. This is not a magic number. It is a structured analysis of the case factors.
  3. Glassy: Run the PD Calculation skill for each body part. Get the full factor breakdown -- FEC rank, occupation group, age adjustment, apportionment. Save the results to Memory so they are available when you reference them later.
  4. Adjudica: Generate a demand letter from your firm's template. The AI pre-fills case details, medical history, and PD calculations from the case data. Your template provides the structure. The case data provides the substance.
  5. Glassy: Review pass. Ask: "Review this demand structure. Suggest improvements to the medical causation argument based on the QME's findings." Glassy reads the draft context and offers specific, citation-backed suggestions. It does not rewrite the demand -- it tells you where to strengthen it.
  6. Adjudica: Finalize the draft in the editor, preview the PDF, and export for filing or service.

Six steps, two products, one polished demand letter. The associate work (gathering data, running calculations, filling templates) is handled by AI. The attorney work (evaluating strategy, reviewing quality, making the call) is handled by you. As it should be.

Scenario 3: Hearing Preparation

You have a Mandatory Settlement Conference next week. The case has a complicated procedural history, multiple body parts, and a stack of medical reports that would make a chiropractor wince. Here is how to prepare without staying until midnight.

  1. Adjudica: Review the timeline filtered to legal events -- see the full procedural history. When was the application filed? What discovery has been completed? Are there any outstanding motions? The timeline gives you the chronology without flipping through the file.
  2. Adjudica: Use Case Chat to locate key document excerpts. Ask: "What did the QME say about the applicant's ability to return to work?" or "Find the section of the AME report discussing apportionment." Get back the exact passage with page citations. No manual search. No sticky notes.
  3. Glassy: Run the Hearing Prep skill. It organizes your case into issues (AOE/COE, body parts in dispute, PD rating, need for future medical treatment, apportionment), maps evidence to each issue, and outlines your arguments. It asks which type of hearing you are preparing for and adjusts the structure accordingly.
  4. Glassy: If depositions are coming up, run the Deposition Prep skill for witness question outlines. It builds questions from the case facts and flags areas where testimony could help or hurt your position. Not a script -- a framework.
  5. Adjudica: Generate any required forms -- DOR, MSC statement, pre-trial conference statement -- using AI Fill. The forms pull from the same case data you have been working with all week. The consistency is not accidental.

Walk into the hearing with your issues organized, your evidence cited, and your forms filed. The AI did the prep work. You bring the judgment. And if the judge asks you about a specific document, you can pull it up in Adjudica on your laptop faster than opposing counsel can find it in their banker's box.

Scenario 4: Evaluating a QME Report

The QME report just arrived. It is 47 pages of single-spaced medical-legal opinion, and somewhere in there is the sentence that either makes or breaks your apportionment argument. You need to know what it says, whether it helps your case, and what to do about it -- ideally before your 2 PM call with the client.

  1. Adjudica: Upload the QME report to the Mailroom. The document processing pipeline runs OCR (if it is a scanned PDF), classifies it as a medical-legal report, and extracts key events for the timeline. One drag-and-drop. The pipeline handles the rest.
  2. Adjudica: Wait for processing. For a 47-page report, this takes 5-10 minutes. Go refill your coffee. You have earned it.
  3. Glassy: Run the Medical Summary skill. It pulls the report from Adjudica and gives you a structured summary: diagnoses, causation opinions, work restrictions, impairment ratings, apportionment findings, and treatment recommendations. Each finding is cited to the specific section of the report. If the QME said "causation is industrial" on page 23, the summary tells you that.
  4. Glassy: Now the strategic question. Ask: "Does this QME report support or undermine our apportionment argument? What are the strongest and weakest points?" Glassy analyzes the QME's reasoning against the legal standards and your case facts. It does not tell you what to think. It tells you what to think about.
  5. Adjudica: Check the timeline -- new events extracted from the report (examination date, diagnostic tests, surgical recommendations) are now part of your case chronology. The case picture just got more complete.

The QME report goes from envelope to analyzed in under 30 minutes. That used to be a half-day exercise. Your 2 PM call just got a lot more productive. And you still read the report yourself -- but now you know what to look for before you open it.

How Glassy Accesses Adjudica Case Data

Here is what actually happens when Glassy reaches into Adjudica for case information. No jargon, no hand-waving.

You are an attorney, not a software engineer, but you deserve to understand how your data moves between products. Most software companies would skip this section. We are not most software companies.

The connection: When your organization connects both products (through Settings in either product), Glassy gets authorized access to Adjudica's API. This works through the same kind of secure authorization you use when you connect any two software products -- Glassy presents credentials, Adjudica verifies them, and the connection is established. Think of it as a standing order: "Glassy is authorized to request information from Adjudica on behalf of this organization." The authorization can be revoked at any time from either product's settings.

What Glassy can ask Adjudica for: Here is the full list of what flows between the two products when they are connected.

What Glassy does NOT do:

A typical request looks like this:

  1. You ask Glassy: "What did the QME say about work restrictions in the Martinez case?"
  2. Glassy sends a secure request to Adjudica's API: "Search the Martinez case for information about work restrictions."
  3. Adjudica searches its document index, finds the relevant passages in the QME report, and sends back the text with citations (document name, page number, paragraph).
  4. Glassy incorporates that information into its response, citing the source.
  5. The intermediate data (the raw text from Adjudica) is not stored by Glassy after the response is generated.

The whole exchange takes a few seconds. You see the result, not the plumbing. If the connection is unavailable for any reason (network issue, maintenance window), Glassy will tell you it could not reach Adjudica's data and suggest you try again in a moment. It does not guess or make things up when it cannot reach the source.

Data in transit: All communication between Glassy and Adjudica is encrypted with TLS 1.3. The same encryption standard your bank uses. We take this seriously, and this is the one section where we will not make jokes about it.

How It Works (The Glass Box)

When Glassy needs case context, it makes a secure API call to Adjudica. Adjudica searches its own document index, finds the relevant passages, and sends back the answer with citations. Glassy uses this to inform its response -- then discards the intermediate data. Your documents stay in Adjudica. Glassy borrows context; it does not keep copies.

What this means for you: One authoritative copy of your case data, accessed from two products, with no synchronization headaches.

Tips for Getting the Most from Both Products

These come from watching how attorneys actually use the products, not from how we designed them. Some of these seem obvious. All of them get ignored at least once before people realize they matter. Your mileage may vary, but these patterns tend to produce the best results.

1. Upload to Adjudica first, then analyze in Glassy. Glassy's legal skills are better when they have case data to work with. The documents need to be processed in Adjudica before Glassy can reference them. Think of it like a library: you have to shelve the book before someone can check it out. Upload the documents in the morning, analyze them over lunch. The processing time is your transition window.

2. Use Adjudica workflows for the predictable, Glassy for the judgment calls. If the same document type always triggers the same form (new QME report generates a template demand letter), automate it in Adjudica's workflow builder. If you need to think through whether this particular QME report changes your settlement strategy, that is a Glassy conversation. Automation for the routine. Conversation for the complex.

3. Keep your Glassy Practice Profile updated. Your Practice Profile tells Glassy about your practice areas, typical case types, preferred communication style, and strategic preferences. Two minutes of profile maintenance saves hours of generic responses. If you specialize in orthopedic injuries, Glassy should know that before you ask your first question. If you recently started handling psychiatric injury claims, update the profile so Glassy adjusts its references.

4. Save Glassy insights to Memory. When Glassy gives you a useful analysis -- "Dr. Smith's QME is favorable on causation but weak on apportionment because he did not address the pre-existing degenerative condition" -- save it to Memory. Next time you ask about that case, Glassy already knows the QME landscape. Memory is Glassy's case notebook. The more you write in it, the smarter it gets about your specific cases. Two clicks to save. Permanent benefit.

5. Use the decision matrix above when you are stuck. When you are not sure which product to open, check the table in the "When to Use Which Product" section. Document tasks go to Adjudica. Thinking tasks go to Glassy. When in doubt, ask yourself: "Am I processing or analyzing?" Processing is Adjudica. Analyzing is Glassy. Most attorneys develop an instinct for this within a week.

6. Let the products play to their strengths. Adjudica is built for throughput -- processing 50 documents, filling 10 forms, generating 5 drafts. Glassy is built for depth -- one question explored from multiple angles, one report analyzed against your entire case theory. Trying to do deep analysis in Adjudica's Case Chat or mass document processing through Glassy is like using a screwdriver as a hammer. It works, but there is a better tool right next to it.

7. Build the habit of using both. The attorneys who get the most out of these products are the ones who use them as a pair. Adjudica without Glassy means you have great documents but limited analysis. Glassy without Adjudica means you have great analysis but limited case data to work with. Together, you have the whole picture. Apart, you have half of it. The first week takes some adjustment. By the second week, the two-product workflow feels natural. By the third, you wonder how you worked without it.

Both products learn your patterns over time. The more you use them, the more useful they become. Glassy remembers your analytical preferences. Adjudica learns your document workflows. But the AI never stops being the associate -- you are always the attorney. That is not a marketing line. It is the design principle behind every feature in both products.

What's Next (Planned Integration)

We are honest about what is here today and what is coming. Everything above this section works now. Everything below is in active development. We include this section because we believe you should know the direction of the products you are investing your practice in.

We ship features when they are ready, not when they are scheduled. Check your dashboard for new capabilities -- or just ask Glassy: "What is new?" It knows.

A note on this section: We include it because we believe in being transparent about what exists today versus what is planned. Every feature described in the sections above this one works right now. If something breaks or changes, we update this guide. We do not promise features we cannot deliver, and we do not describe planned features as if they already exist. If a target date slips, we will update this section. That is the Glass Box way.
