Identify downstream value of saved research
Saved legal work can signal continuity, collaboration, or unfinished decisions.
The same behavior may reflect different needs depending on how a matter moves through review.
“We save a lot of useful work, but I can’t tell whether it’s becoming shared knowledge or just a personal archive.”

What pulls against what
- knowledge reuse vs. matter continuity
- behavioral signal vs. legal outcome
- fast strategic clarity vs. iterative learning

High saving activity masks several possible user needs. Choosing the wrong outcome would direct effort toward a behavior that does not create durable legal value
