Frequently asked questions
What is CourtStairs?
CourtStairs is an AI legal assistant for Canadian law that answers questions in plain language with citations to primary sources, and helps with research, drafting, calls, and meetings.
How do I try CourtStairs for free?
Signing up places you on a 30-day free trial automatically, and CourtStairs also has a permanent free tier that is open to anyone.
What does it cost after the free trial?
You can keep using the free tier or choose a paid plan for higher limits and advanced features. See the pricing on the Buy page, or email support@courtstairs.com.
Is my data private and where is it hosted?
Core data is hosted in Canada with encryption and access controls. We do not sell your personal information or use it for advertising.
Does CourtStairs give legal advice?
No. It provides general legal information with citations to primary sources, and it is not a substitute for advice from a licensed lawyer about your specific situation.
How accurate are the answers, and do they cite sources?
Every answer links to primary Canadian legal sources and shows the reference, date, and jurisdiction, so you can open the source and verify it yourself.
Which provinces and areas of law does it cover?
CourtStairs covers Canadian federal and provincial law, including Quebec civil law, so it handles both the common-law provinces and the Civil Code of Quebec.
Do you support French?
Yes. French is a first-class experience, not a translation layer. Switch the language toggle to use CourtStairs in French.
What can I do with calls and meetings?
CourtStairs can transcribe and analyze your calls and meetings and save the results alongside your cases and research.
What files can I upload?
You can upload PDF, DOCX, XLSX, and image files, up to 50 MB each.
Is CourtStairs for lawyers or for individuals?
Both. It offers deep research, drafting, and case strategy for lawyers, and plain-language cited answers for everyone else.
How do I cancel or delete my data?
You can request deletion at any time. Your account and data are permanently removed after 30 days, and you can cancel the request within that window by emailing support.
