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.
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.
| Page Type | Examples | Change Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Regulatory agency pages | CFPB, SEC, FTC, FDA, state bar sites | Weekly–Monthly |
| Vendor SLAs / DPAs | Cloud storage, software subscriptions | Quarterly (but unannounced) |
| Published counterparty terms | Supplier agreements, distributor terms | Variable |
| Industry association guidance | ABA, state bar, trade assoc. positions | Monthly–Quarterly |
| Your own published pages | Terms of service, privacy policy monitoring | As-published |

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.
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.
