Security

Do you keep or store my document?

No. BriefCatch does not collect, log, or retain your uploaded document or any of its contents.

Functionality

What is the difference between BriefCatch Express and the full version of BriefCatch?

With Express, you upload a document and receive an edited version by email that shows the changes applied. This gives you a preview of how BriefCatch can improve your writing.

With BriefCatch 3, you see every suggestion directly inside Word, choose which edits to accept, and take advantage of advanced features like multiple editing options, examples from leading legal writers, document scores, and detailed writing reports. The BriefCatch 3 Word add-in is both more powerful and a stronger learning tool.
