Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Specter AI (tryspecter.ai) sells litigation intelligence software to plaintiff-side and mass tort law firms. The company positions itself as an infrastructure layer for complex litigation practices, offering docket intelligence intended to let a firm score, review and qualify every case in its portfolio across more than 40 jurisdictions.

The platform is organized into four modules that the company maps to sequential stages of a case. Specter Discover targets demand generation by making a firm appear in answers produced by AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, running on the firm's existing website and without ad spend. Specter Voice is an intake system that answers inbound plaintiff calls 24/7, qualifies callers against firm-defined criteria, books consultations and follows up. Case Review handles evidence and decisioning: it splits and codes records to ICD-10, builds a chronology, flags gaps and issues a single cited GO / HOLD / NO-GO recommendation. Tort Tracker monitors filing velocity by category across 40+ jurisdictions and every active MDL, issuing alerts before an MDL number is assigned. Litigation categories highlighted on the site include Depo-Provera, Roblox, hair relaxer, social media, gambling and GLP-1 matters.

The company also publishes a briefings blog covering emerging tort analysis, intake economics and the effects of AI on plaintiff-side practice, authored by its founders.
