Founder's Pro is built for the desk that watches many firms and districts at once. Solo is the same discipline, scoped to one practitioner: the matters you carry, the hearings you argue, the firm your name is on. One seat, one desk, everything you need to never be surprised — and nothing you'd only use at a bigger shop.

Your own Watch Desk

A per-account agent that answers from the certified record and stays silent when the record doesn't support an answer — citation or silence, never a guess. Ask it what happened on a case, who argued it, how a district has moved, what's on the calendar that touches your world. It answers with the record behind every line.

A dais-prep pack before each of your hearings

Before each of your hearings, a prep pack: who's on the dais, how they've voted on cases like yours, what staff recommended, the record of the district and the framework in front of you. You walk in knowing the room. No outcome is asserted ahead of the record — the pack arms you to argue, it does not predict the vote.

A watchlist & alerts

Watch anything the record knows that touches your practice — your cases, your district, an owner, an opposing firm. New filing, hearing scheduled, postponement, outcome, and when Council makes it law. Alerts arrive with the weekly cycle, sourced only from the certified record.

Your firm page

Your practice gets a permanent entity page in the decade-deep record: your hearing arc, your outcomes, the districts you work. The same page anyone citing the leaderboard lands on — reconciled against the certified record before it publishes. The 10-year leaderboard is the public gateway →

One custom exhibit a year

Once a year, one exhibit built to your question — a chart, a table, a one-page cut of the record for a pitch, a hearing, or a client memo. Certified like everything else on the desk, and yours to cite.

How we keep it honest Every figure the desk prints traces to a public hearing record and passes an automated verification gate before it reaches you. Where our coverage has limits, it says so. When we get something wrong, we print the correction. That discipline is the product — the same on Solo as on every tier above it.
What Solo includes — and does not One seat, and it includes: your own Watch Desk (citation-or-silence), a dais-prep pack before each of your hearings, a watchlist with alerts, your firm page, and one custom exhibit a year.

It does not include: the BD-signals feed (the unrepresented-owner / new-filing lead layer), multiple seats, or API access — those live in the tiers above. Solo is not legal advice, not a prediction service, and not a lobbying operation. The publication remains firm-neutral; a subscription buys the tool, never coverage.
