Public Vector is a company focused on sourcing, verifying, and processing legal data. We use public and proprietary data-mining techniques and sources to create and support legal technologies. We offer deep research tools for attorneys, compliance checks for IT teams and in-house counsel, employment referrals, self-service tools for non-attorneys, and more. Each of these practices reflects a single overarching mission: to strategically source and combine legal expertise and resources into effective, verified AI tools that let attorneys expand their practices, reduce overhead, and confidently provide more efficient and effective legal services to their clients.
No account needed — settlement benchmarks, the searchable database behind them, and a free preview of each morning's briefing.
New filings by nature of suit with the plaintiff firm on each, this week's rulings, and what's settling. Free preview daily; the full edition goes to subscribers.
Median settlement value by theory, computed from every valued settlement we track. Medians, never averages.
Look up a defendant or practice area and see what cases like it recovered, and the typical per-member payout.
Filings by industry, copycat watch, rulings framed as exposure, and complaint pressure before it reaches a docket.
We crawled 5,431 consumer sites without touching a single consent banner. Free to read and cite.
Each listing is a defendant our agents documented, with the evidence sealed into a PDF. First buyer holds it exclusively.
Vigilance never sleeps: three monitoring layers sweep the consumer economy on a continuous cycle.
Autonomous browser agents continuously sweep consumer-facing sites — reading marketing claims at scale, exercising consent banners, walking pricing flows, and recording the trackers that fire — so violations are observed as they happen on the defendant's own pages, not reconstructed after the fact.
We continuously monitor where consumers already report harm — regulator complaint databases, consumer-protection boards, forums, and review sites. A violation only advances when independent complaint volume corroborates it, so evidence arrives with putative class members already on the record.
Literature monitoring flags products whose claims new research contradicts. Daily grievance time-series spot accelerating harm categories before they make news. And every candidate clears a prior-litigation screen — federal docket plus the open web — so what surfaces is first-mover.
Every defendant in the dashboard carries an arbitrage gap score between zero and one — the distance between what the site does and what its policies actually disclose. Filter, sort, drill in, and pull a sealed PDF on any defendant you want to pursue.
Each marketplace listing is a defendant our agent has already verified live: verbatim representations captured, network traffic recorded, wrap classification done, sealed PDF assembled. The first buyer claims the listing exclusively — once sold, it's gone.
Surveillance spots the violation. This pipeline turns it into evidence.
Our agent drives the defendant's site like a real user — submits forms, hits checkout, exercises consent banners — while a network listener records every tracker that fires and a representation extractor pulls verbatim marketing language.
We cross-reference the captured tracking behavior against the defendant's own privacy policy, ToS, and cookie disclosures. The result is an arbitrage score: the documented distance between what the site does and what it tells consumers.
Every artifact — screenshots, HAR captures, policy snapshots, case-law alignment — is hashed and bundled into a sealed PDF with FRE 901 chain of custody. Drop it straight into a complaint or class-cert backup record.
Where our data comes from. Everything in a report is first-party: our own agents drive the defendant's live public site and capture the network requests, marketing representations, and consent UX exactly as they served — nothing licensed, nothing second-hand, every artifact hashed at capture. Scope details in the FAQ.
