Our Founding Story: Expertise Before the AI Wave
LinksToValue, the parent company of FactAssess, was founded in 2012 with a simple mandate: give U.S. personal injury attorneys accurate, defensible medical chronologies and demand letters, without the overhead of building that capability in-house. Long before "AI-generated" was a phrase any personal injury attorney used, our team was manually reviewing medical records, cross-referencing provider notes, calculating damages, and building the chronological narratives that demand letters and case strategy depend on.
That work required, and still requires, real legal-domain and medical-record expertise: understanding ICD coding, recognizing causation gaps, knowing what a life-care cost projection actually needs to hold up, and knowing how a demand letter needs to read to be taken seriously by an adjuster. This is not knowledge you can bolt onto a product overnight. It's built case by case, over years of medical record review experience.
When generative AI tools entered the legal drafting space and started producing demand letters and medical chronologies in minutes, we didn't see a threat to route around. We saw an opportunity. We saw the exact problem our founding expertise was built to solve. AI tools can draft quickly. They can't yet reliably verify their own accuracy against a source medical record the way an experienced human reviewer can. That gap is where our AI output audit service was born.
