Platform
Forensic financial analysis platform
Upload the production, however discovery gave it to you. Every page is read, every month is checked against the totals the bank printed, and every figure is verified to the page it came from.
Virtually any bank
Regional banks and credit unions included, no matter how their statements are laid out.
Every cycle
Added up against the beginning and ending totals the bank printed on that statement.
Every figure
One click opens the statement page where that money is written down, exactly as printed.
Nothing invented
Only what the statement prints becomes a figure, and any gap is left open and flagged.
How a page becomes proof
The figures here are the actual output of each step. If a step claims something, the figure beside it is the evidence.
Step 01
Hand over the production
Drag in what discovery gave you, one merged PDF or four hundred. CounselPro splits it back into monthly statements per account, including the ones that print no date label, and tells you which accounts it found.

Step 02
Read every line, keep the page
Date, description, amount, direction, and the page it was printed on. Every row comes from what the page prints, so a figure the page does not show is never invented, and one click opens the statement page where the money is written down.

Sixty-one lines on this cycle were read the same way. Every amount comes from the page it cites, and nothing the page leaves blank is filled in.
Step 03
Balance the month, or say so
Every cycle is added up against the beginning and ending totals the bank printed. A cycle that misses gets its pages read again against the page image. A cycle that still cannot be proved is flagged for review, never quietly closed.
Reconciliation and self-healing come with Single Project and Premier.
- Balanced to the printed totals
- Corrected against the page image
- Needs review, left to a person
- No statement in the production
Thirty-two of the thirty-six cycles balanced on the first read, and two more balanced once a page had been read again. November on the operating account prints no ending total, so it is left to a person rather than balanced on an assumption, and June on the card was never produced at all.
Step 04
Ask in plain English, leave with a file
Daystrom AI answers from the records and shows the arithmetic it ran, with the statement page beside every figure. The same case can be written up as a long-form forensic report shaped for the matter type, and any answer leaves as a file.
Where did the money go after March?
Nine transfers left operating ••3390 after March, and three recipients account for all of it. Every figure below opens the statement page it came from.

186,000 + 68,400 + 32,000286,400.00
Which of those has no statement behind it?
Account ••7712 took 186,000.00 over nine transfers and no statement for it was produced. It is flagged rather than counted, and the same question can be written up as a section of the forensic report.
How each statement gets balanced
The bank prints a starting and an ending total on every statement. CounselPro adds up the month against them, and when the two disagree it reads the cycle again against the page image until every figure matches what the bank printed.
The ledger carried one deposit at 2,100.00. Page 12 prints 3,900.00, and the figure is corrected against the page.
Where the transfers lead
Transfers, checks, wires and payment apps are read through to the person or company on the other side. Below are nine transfers over two years, and every one of them links to the page it is printed on.
| Date | Instrument | Next account | Amount | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 04/12/23 | Online transfer | No statement produced | $24,000.00 | p. 44 |
| 09/06/23 | Wire, same-day | No statement produced | $31,600.00 | p. 96 |
| 03/22/24 | Online transfer | No statement produced | $46,000.00 | p. 21 |
| 07/18/24 | Cashier's check 2287 | No statement produced | $37,200.00 | p. 63 |
| 11/04/24 | Online transfer ×5 | No statement produced | $47,200.00 | p. 78 |
| Total | Nine transfers, two years | $186,000.00 |
Account ••7712 is where the trail stops, because no statement for it was ever produced. That is the next request to make, and the amber column is what you attach to it.
Answers that show their work
Two surfaces on the same records. The chat answers one question at a time; the report writes the whole case up. Every figure is computed in the open and carries the statement page it came from.
What are they spending it on?
Spending ranked by category, merchant or period, against the figure they put on the record.
What did they actually bring in?
214,600.00 arrived. Income is 172,559.45 of it, once their own transfers, refunds and loan proceeds come out.
Where is the money actually going?
Any ranking you ask for comes back as a table that carries its own total, so the top three are read against all 214.
Who were the checks written to?
A check has no payee field. The name is read off the check itself, and the three that carry a number and nothing else are still counted, with no payee invented for them.
Was the cash kept under 10,000?
Cash that lands just under a reporting threshold in a short window, each row keeping its page. Flagged for you to weigh, never called a crime.
Can they afford 4,000 a month?
Support, alimony or a mortgage worked from real income and real outgoings, with the months the records do not cover named up front.
The forensic report answers before you ask
The questions above are just examples. You can ask the chat anything about the records, one question at a time. The forensic report runs the standard analyses as named sections, written for the matter in front of you.

Built for the matter you have
Forensic-grade counting used to mean hiring an expert or being the kind of firm that could afford one on every file. Now you can run it on the case in front of you.
Solo and small firms
The expert costs more than the dispute is worth, so the statements sit in a banker’s box until the week before the hearing.
- One matter at a time, no seat to commit to
- A schedule you can attach to a motion the same day
- Nothing to set up beyond the upload
Litigation and trial teams
Four years of records arrived as one PDF on a Friday, the deposition is Thursday, and the associate is the one counting.
- Coverage by account and month, so you know what is missing
- Threads shared across the team, on the same records
- Exhibits with the source page on every figure
Forensic and valuation firms
Your judgment is the product, and the first three weeks of an engagement go to keying in numbers somebody already printed.
- Every cycle balanced before you open the file
- Workpapers out as CSV or XLSX, source page included
- Your hours go to opinion and testimony
Custody
- Locked on the way in and while it sits with us.
- Never used to train a model. Your client’s records are worked on and nothing else.
- Built for ABA Rule 1.6, so the file stays with the people on the matter.
- We run on US-based providers who are independently audited and SOC 2 Type II certified.
- Nothing changes on its own. Every correction is previewed, confirmed by you, and reversible.
- Bank statements, credit card statements and check images. Not tax returns, not spreadsheets, and we say so rather than reading them badly.
- Investment and retirement statements, with holdings and realized gains checked against the printed section totals.
