Deadlines · Proposed, not assumed
Dates the file imposes, found before they bite.
Contractual notice windows and rule-driven deadlines are both in the record. Finding them is reading; relying on them is a decision, and the two stay separate.
Where the dates come from
Two sources, both in the file, both easy to miss.
Rule-driven deadlines
Computed from the local rules and the procedural posture of the matter, with the rule that produced each one attached.
Contractual clocks
Renewal, notice, cure and payment windows extracted from the agreements themselves, quoted in full.
Proposals, not diary entries
Nothing is written into the calendar automatically. An extracted date is a lead, and a wrong date that became a trusted date is the worst outcome available.
Conflicts between commitments
Two obligations inside an hour of each other is the thing a diary cannot show you, and it is surfaced.
What stays true on every matter
These do not change by practice area, firm size, or the question asked.
Point it at a contract you have already diarised.
See whether the notice window it quotes matches the date in your calendar. That comparison is quick and occasionally alarming.

The answers below are specific to this page’s subject.
Does it write into our calendar automatically?
No, deliberately. Every date is a proposal with the clause or rule attached, and a person confirms it. Diarising an extracted date without a lawyer reading the words is how a wrong date becomes a trusted one.
Does it know local rules?
Rule packs for the matter's court are held locally, and a computed deadline carries the rule it came from.
Can it export to Outlook?
Yes, once confirmed — as .ics, which any calendar accepts.
What if a rule changed?
Rule packs update through the same deliberate delivery path, and a deadline shows which pack produced it.
