Document Alerts for Fastcase Users: Monitor the Pages Fastcase Doesn't Track

Fastcase covers case law, statutes, and regulations in its database. DriftPatrol monitors the live published pages that change between Fastcase updates — regulatory agency guidance documents, vendor SLAs, informal policy statements, and published terms that affect your research matters but live outside any legal database.

The Gap in Your Current Stack

Practice management tools manage your internal workflow. Legal research databases index published law. AI drafting tools accelerate document production. None of them monitor the live external published pages — regulatory agency sites, vendor terms, published guidance — for changes that happen between your manual review cycles.

DriftPatrol fills that gap. Add any publicly accessible URL to your watchlist. Get a plain-English Monday brief covering what changed, what clause was modified, and which matters may require a follow-up review.

Frequently asked questions

What does DriftPatrol monitor that Fastcase doesn't?

Fastcase indexes statutory law, case law, regulations, and court filings in its database. DriftPatrol monitors live published web pages for content changes — regulatory agency news and guidance pages, vendor and counterparty published terms, industry association policy statements, and any other URL your research depends on but that is not indexed in Fastcase's database.

How do I set up DriftPatrol alongside Fastcase?

DriftPatrol requires no integration with Fastcase. Add the external URLs relevant to your practice area — regulatory agency sites, key vendor terms pages, published guidance documents — to your DriftPatrol watchlist. When changes are detected, the Monday brief summarizes what changed in plain English, complementing the primary-source research you conduct in Fastcase.
