Connectors
Word and PDF exports and the document vault ship today. Clio, DocuSign, calendar, and bank/asset sync connect under your firm’s own credentials — documents flow out to you, never the other way. Dormant until a firm switches them on.
Every instrument and the full packet export to Word and PDF for the matter file.
Encrypted, tenant-isolated storage with a full provenance trail.
A taskpane inside Word: every statutory citation in the open document checked against the source-locked Florida corpus, plus authority and name-variance findings — under your own session, no keys in the add-in. Sideload manifest in the repo (docs/word-addin-SIDELOAD.md).
Per-document signing scripts and role validation from the statutory formalities (witnesses, notary, superpower initialing, who may not witness) with an append-only execution record — works with wet ink today; the e-sign rail is the delivery upgrade.
Subscribe Outlook / Apple / Google natively to the matter's statutory deadline lattice — zero keys, a revocable per-user token. Fail-closed (audited live; docs/connectors/calendar-AUDIT.md).
Push creditor-claim, elective-share, and statutory deadlines into the firm calendar by API. Dormant until firm credentials; the ICS feed above works today.
Sync matters, contacts, documents, and deadlines into your practice-management system. The scripted round-trip audit is ready (scripts/connector-audit-clio.ts) — the badge flips to Live only after it passes on the firm's own credentials.
Route the execution ceremony — testator, witnesses, and notary — with self-proving tabs, sequentially. Audit harness ready (scripts/connector-audit-esign.ts); Live only after the recorded round-trip passes.
Read-only asset and funding visibility to drive retitling and beneficiary-designation checks.
Real-money movement and filing remain client- or attorney-initiated. EstateDraftFL prepares and routes work product; it does not file documents.
Will execution ceremony — the engine's own script
This is the actual signing script the Execution Ceremony runs in the product — roles, order, and presence rules, each line carrying its statute. Florida's formalities are strict on purpose; the ceremony makes them impossible to miss.

[object Object]
Everyone
Assemble the testator, both witnesses, and (recommended) the notary in one room.
Everyone stays in the same room (or statutory audio-video presence where authorized) for the entire signing — sign-then-fetch-a-witness is the classic defect.
[object Object]
Testator
Declares the document is their will and signs at the end (or acknowledges a prior signature) with both witnesses watching.
[object Object]
Witness 1, then Witness 2
Each witness signs in the presence of the testator and of each other.
[object Object]
Testator + witnesses + notary
All execute the self-proving affidavit before the notary (recommended, not required).
[object Object]
Custodian
Store the ORIGINAL safely; the custodian must deposit it with the clerk within 10 days of learning of the testator's death.

Cite Check
Cite Check verifies every Florida statute and Probate Rule against EstateDraftFL’s source-locked corpus, and every case citation against CourtListener’s database of U.S. opinions — so a made-up statute or an AI-hallucinated case is caught before you file. KeyCite and Shepard’s good-law treatment connect under your firm’s own entitlement.
The live engine behind Cite Check's existence verification — every case citation matched against CourtListener's database of millions of U.S. opinions (Free Law Project), so a non-existent or AI-hallucinated cite is caught before you file. Add a COURTLISTENER_API_TOKEN to switch it on.
Citator-grade KeyCite validation and red-flag treatment for every case in your brief, inside your firm's own Westlaw entitlement. The slot is built and dormant — it activates when Thomson Reuters provisions partner credentials (no personal-login routing; their terms prohibit it).
Shepardize each case for negative treatment and confirm it is still good law, inside your firm's own Lexis+ entitlement. Built and dormant — activates when LexisNexis provisions partner credentials. Until then, Cite Check verifies existence via CourtListener.
