Docket Alarm's Case Matcher API: Find Cases Effortlessly with Limited Details

It can feel impossible to locate quality litigation data when crafting search queries from partial case details. Without a full docket number and court details, targeted data points can easily evade detection—obscured by the ever-rising tide of new cases and filings. However, Docket Alarm's latest API innovation, the Case Matcher endpoint, harnesses advanced language models and search engineering to match limited details with actual dockets from our database, making the process of finding cases more efficient than ever.

Using the Case Matcher endpoint is straightforward. Simply send a GET request to /case_matcher/ along with any relevant information you have - parties involved, state, filing date, keywords from the case title, etc. The more details you can provide, the better the match will be. The API will then use the same process a human would to find the correct case on Docket Alarm, no matter what information you have available.


Key advantages of the Case Matcher API:


1. Saves time: Automate the case matching process and eliminate manual searches.

2. Improves accuracy: Sophisticated algorithms ensure precise case matches.

3. Seamless integration: Easily incorporate the API into your existing case management systems.

4. Customizable: Specify the matching criteria most important to your firm.

5. Real-time updates: Keep your internal databases current with the latest case information.


Case Matcher converts the limited details provided into a cohesive response, containing the matched case number, court, and token cost, paired with a link to review the case in full on Docket Alarm. This tool is poised to be invaluable for firms, attorneys, and legal professionals who need to quickly identify and access case information from partial details.


The Case Matcher endpoint is currently available in beta. Utilize the endpoint today to eliminate the frustrations of searching based on partial data once and for all!
