Order the evidence once. The numbers, the index and the bundle follow.
The Document Index is the ordered spine of a collection. Arrange it, add headings, apply the preset for your filing — and the same configuration produces both the Word/Excel index and the paginated court bundle. No second list to keep in sync.
Shape the spine, and everything downstream follows
- 01
Order the documents
Arrange documents into the sequence you want them to appear. Serial numbers are read straight from that order, top to bottom — move a document and its number moves with it, no renumbering by hand.
- 02
Add headings & structure
Generate section headings from your uploaded folders or your LOD categories, or build them by hand — then sort every section by date, description or filename in a single action.
- 03
Apply a preset
One click sets the columns, numbering template and volume rules for the filing — a court bundle, a Record of Appeal (SG or MY), a disclosure list, an affidavit or a bundle of authorities.
One configuration, several outputs
- Word & Excel index
Export the Document Index as a Word (.docx) or Excel (.xlsx) table to hand to counsel.
- Free PDF preview
Preview the index as a PDF on screen before you commit — previewing charges no credits.
- It feeds the bundle
The same ordered structure drives the paginated court bundle, so the index and the bundle are two views of one source and never drift apart.
- Columns you choose
Pick the columns — serial number, date, description, volume, page — to match what the filing calls for.
- Seven purpose-built presets
Court bundles, Records of Appeal (SG & MY), disclosure, single- and multi-volume affidavits, and bundles of authorities — each with the right columns and numbering.
Because the index and the bundle come from the same saved configuration, getting the index right is the whole job — the bundle is generated from it.
The index isn't a report you generate at the end. It's the spine you shape all along.
BriefTech treats the arrangement of documents as the meaningful act: numbering, headings, the exported index and the finished bundle are all consequences of that one ordered spine. Get the order and the headings right, apply the preset that matches the court you are filing in, and both the index you hand to counsel and the paginated bundle you file are already decided — regenerate either one after a change and it simply catches up.
