Most of it is right. Some of it isn't.

Check what the AI wrote before you put your name on it.

Cachet is a free app for your Mac. Give it something an AI or a person wrote, plus your own documents. It checks each fact and gives it one of three answers: Confirmed, Doesn't match, or Couldn't verify.

Version 0.1, for Macs with Apple silicon (M1 or newer)

Not only for lawyers. Made for:

  • Lawyers
  • Finance teams
  • Visa applicants
  • Consultants
  • Contract managers
  • Founders
  • Journalists
  • Students

What it does

Each fact gets an answer, and Cachet shows you why.

How a fact gets Confirmed

AI can give hints. Only your documents can confirm.

Cachet says Confirmed only when your document says so. Its AI can also spot a fact said in other words. That shows up as a lead, which is just a hint. A lead never becomes Confirmed.
