How It Works

Three steps. Under a minute.

No event code menus. No multi-step forms. Just drop your document.

01

Drop your filing

Upload any federal court document — motion, brief, complaint, notice. AI reads the entire document in seconds.

02

AI extracts everything

Case number, court, event code, filing party, docket text. Every field extracted, then run through the 5-point readiness check.

03

Review and file it yourself

See exactly what CM/ECF will receive. Attest, and ECFiler hands you a validated filing package with a CM/ECF deep link and step-by-step instructions. You submit it on CM/ECF.

The Problem

Features

Built for federal practice

Every feature prevents filing errors and saves attorney time.

207 federal courts

Every district, bankruptcy, and appellate court. BAPs and special courts included.

AI event code matching

Describe your filing in plain English. AI matches the correct CM/ECF event code from hundreds of options.

Rule 5.2 redaction scan

AI detects unredacted SSNs, DOBs, financial accounts, and minor names before you file.

PDF pre-flight checks

Validates size, searchable text, encryption, and PDF/A compliance before CM/ECF can reject your filing.

Sealed content refused

The hosted service refuses sealed or restricted documents outright — they never reach ECFiler's servers. Redacted public versions are supported.

5-point readiness check

PDF validity, redaction scan, case number, event code, signature block. Attorney attestation required before staging.

5-point readiness check

Your credentials, never here

Filing credentials stay in your machine's keyring. ECFiler's servers never see a court password.
