Timing is an important part of legal reasoning. Lawyers and other legal professionals often need chronologies of the events mentioned across numerous files. CoCounsel's Timeline skill reads files word-for-word to provide a timeline with date, time, and event information.

In this situation, we will begin by uploading a file.
  1. Add files to the chat. CoCounsel will add files to the chat and ask how to proceed.
  2. Tell CoCounsel you want a timeline. For example, "I need a timeline." CoCounsel will begin its work and show its progress.
