Every deal makes the next one better.
Orelis is the system of record for your company's judgment. Every deal you do generates it: what you held, what you gave, who decided, and why. Orelis captures it, labels which decisions are policy and which were exceptions for your people to confirm, and hands counsel a Charter built from your own history.

Illustrative walkthrough. Sample data. The company, project, terms and roles are fictional.
Built for the middle market
Companies in private equity, real estate, energy and operating businesses, with steady deal flow and real spend on outside advisors.
Your data is yours
You own the documents and decisions you give Orelis. If you leave, you take an export of your Index and your documents. Orelis keeps patterns, not your documents or wording.
Model-neutral
Orelis isn't tied to one AI provider. It runs on whichever frontier model does the work best, so it can put each new advance in AI to work.
Keep your advisors. Keep your systems.
Orelis works alongside both. Nothing to migrate, and your advisors keep working the way they do.
Three components. One asset. Yours.
The reasoning is rented from whichever frontier model is best. The context is the fuel. The workflow is the habit. Orelis is the system the three run inside. It is model-neutral by design, so every advance in AI makes it more capable, never obsolete.
Every position. Every precedent. Every counterparty. Always current. Not a folder of documents. A living model of what your company knows, compounding with every transaction. It doesn't walk out the door with a partner, a firm, or an employee.
More on Index →Counsel starts with judgment, not context gathering. For each transaction: a draft with your positions applied, the open issues surfaced, and a briefing that lets real work begin immediately, built from your own deal history and drafted for your counsel to pick up, make their changes, and return ready to send.

Open issues for counsel
- Survival: buyer asked 24 months; your standard of 18 applied
- Outside date not provided — left blank, not guessed
- Customer contracts: which need consent to assign
Track every dollar. Preserve every decision. Spend before and after, the return, and the record of what was decided and why. Savings first, a permanent record after.

Illustrative: about $5M of outside counsel spend; every figure here is sample data. Savings are estimated from hours with and without Orelis.
Every decision carries its authority.
Orelis suggests which of your decisions are policy and which were one-time deals; your people with authority confirm it. A position is only as useful as what stands behind it, so Orelis keeps the detail around every decision, and who has the right to decide.
- 01What was decidedThe term, the deal, the counterparty, the reason, and the document it came from.
- 02Does it survive the dealYour standard, current practice, specific to one deal, or a one-off. Orelis suggests the label; your people confirm it.
- 03Who made the callThe person, their role, and the authority they held at the moment they decided.
- 04Who can enforce it, or grant an exceptionWho may grant an exception, and for how long that authority runs. A departure waits for someone who holds it.
Lease guaranty: capped at 12 months' rent
- What was decided
- A personal guaranty is capped at 12 months' rent, on every lease
- Survives the deal?
- Your standard applies to every lease until changed
- Who made the call
- Chief Executive Officer, March 2026, after an uncapped guaranty outlasted the location it covered
- Can grant an exception
- Chief Financial Officer
Last exception: Fort Worth warehouse lease, granted once and recorded as a one-off
✓ Your Chief Financial Officer approved a 24-month guaranty for the Plano lease, once. It is recorded as a one-off, and your standard stays at 12 months' rent.
Forward the deal. The work comes back.
Forward it
Your team forwards what it already sends and receives to your own Orelis address: the letter of intent, counsel's drafts, the markup. Setup is an address and a list of who may send to it.
Orelis reads it
Positions, concessions, counterparties and open points go into your Index. Each departure from your standard is labeled for your people to confirm.
The Charter comes back
On the next deal, counsel receives a draft built from your own history: your positions applied, open issues surfaced, missing facts left as marked blanks.
A senior dealmaker leaves after fifteen years. The company doesn't lose a file. It loses a faculty.
The problem Orelis solves →A knowledge asset you can't trust isn't an asset at all.
Walled by client
Every client sits behind its own wall in the database. We test isolation by trying to break it, not by assuming it holds.
A record that is added to, never edited
Every label confirmation and every exception decision is kept in an append-only log. The automation that writes an entry is not permitted to change it afterward.
Blanks, never guesses
When a price, a date or a party is missing, the draft leaves a marked blank and lists it for counsel. Drafts are built never to fill in a fact you did not give them.
Attorneys provide judgment
Orelis is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. Every Charter is prepared for review by your own counsel.
The argument the category is built on.
A first-principles theory of enterprise infrastructure — and why organizational reasoning now requires a layer of its own. We think this layer is inevitable. Read the argument and disagree with us.
