What we build
Products for people trying to bring order to a difficult file.
AlbusWorks focuses on work products with a clear job: help a person gather, label, sequence, and review information they already have, while pointing them back to current official sources when legal rules or forms matter.
State research starting points
Compass editions organize links to court rules, self-help centers, forms, fee pages, and other public resources by jurisdiction.
Learn by doing
Steadycase Courtroom Practice, a free browser game live at play.getsteadycase.com, builds courtroom vocabulary and judgment through repetition, one line of fictional testimony at a time.
Product line
Steadycase is the main public product line today.
The catalog spans the Divorce, Custody, and Financial Divorce Trial Notebooks, 51 Steadycase Compass editions, Print Editions of all three notebooks, two national Quick Guides, and Steadycase Courtroom Practice, a free courtroom game. Every paid product is available at getsteadycase.com.

In development
Steadycase Organizer brings the Steadycase workflow into local-first software.
The Mac app is in private development and pilot preparation. It supports the notebook workflow by turning a user's own documents into reviewable timeline material.
What the prototype is built to do
- Read a user's own documents on the user's computer.
- Build a review queue for dates, events, and source quotes.
- Export reviewed timeline material back into a trial notebook workflow.

Legal boundary
Designed as information and organization tools.
AlbusWorks products are built to help users organize their own materials and find public sources. They do not replace current court sources, professional judgment, or advice from a licensed attorney.
What products can do
Help structure documents, notes, timelines, checklists, source links, review queues, and workbook workflows.
What products do not do
They do not predict outcomes, select legal strategies, calculate every possible deadline, or create an attorney-client relationship.
