T1 / T2 / T3 - the three tiers, plain English
We don't try to sell every firm every tier. Different cases hit different stages of certainty. T1 is the cheap triage you run on every inbound. T2 is the gate before you commit firm capital. T3 is the artifact you attach to the complaint.
Intake screening
Cheap. Fast. Run on every inbound allegation.
- Allegation triage report
- Statutory-element preview (FCA, AKS, ERISA, IRC 7623, Dodd-Frank 21F)
- Defendant NPI / EIN cluster lookup
- OFAC / sanctions / debarment screening
- Viability score (0-100) with confidence interval
- SHA-256-sealed report + L1 anchor
- Turnaround: 24-72 hours
Use it when: relator walks in the door and you need a fast read on whether the case has legs. Most T1s end here.
Substantiation
The gate before you commit firm capital.
- Vendor history sweep (4+ year lookback per defendant)
- NPI / EIN cluster analysis (corporate veil + beneficial ownership)
- Claim-level pattern detection (with FRE 803(6) business-records framing)
- Statutory-element mapping with sub-element evidence pointers
- Prior-incident matching (cross-firm signal where permitted)
- Expert-witness candidate identification
- L1-anchored at every reasoning step (Merkle chain auditable)
- Turnaround: 2-6 weeks per case complexity
Use it when: before you sign the engagement, or before you decide to file. T2 is how firms test whether the narrative survives independent investigation.
CREB filing bundle
The artifact you attach to the complaint.
- Court-ready CREB® package
- FRE 902(14) authentication block (digital identification - no records-custodian deposition)
- Full provenance chain (input then reasoning then output, hashed at every step)
- Evidence index with Bates-style line cites
- Deposition prep packet
- Expert-witness reference (declaration + CV bundles)
- 14-of-20 BFT validator signature set across 13+ jurisdictions
- Drops directly into your complaint as Exhibit A
Use it when: the case is going to court. T3 is the filing-grade artifact that survives FRE 902(14) authenticity challenges without producing JIL employees as witnesses.
Per-engagement fixed fee + recovery-tied SKU (where permitted)
All three tiers price as fixed per-engagement fees. Where local bar rules permit (and our counsel has cleared the analysis - see Section 35.1.4 in our internal roadmap), recovery-tied SKUs are available as an alternative for partner firms with established case-flow. Ask about it on the partnership call.
- T1: low fixed - designed to be run on volume.
- T2: mid fixed - varies by case complexity (number of defendants, lookback span, jurisdictions touched).
- T3: higher fixed - includes the full CREB bundle + deposition prep + expert reference.
- Recovery-tied SKU (optional): reduced fixed + a percentage of recovery, where bar rules allow. Anchor firms negotiate this directly with JIL counsel.
Final pricing locked in the MSA. Anchor-firm Year-1 discounts apply through 2026.
Want a worked example?
On the partnership call we'll walk through a sanitized real case: relator narrative, what T1 returned, why we recommended T2, what T2 surfaced, and what the T3 CREB looked like at filing.
