DocAssist™ produces a first draft of the presentence investigation from the source material the officer uploads and the case data already in your system of record.
Presentence investigations are among the most time-consuming documents agencies produce. Officers spend hours gathering information, writing narratives, and reviewing details before a report reaches the court.
DocAssist™ helps agencies draft PSIs faster, improve consistency across writers, and maintain human review at every step. Officers stay focused on supervision work while courts receive reports that are clear, complete, and consistent.
