How Talden works — running matter tasks, reviewing the team's work, and operating your practice records.
Run your first matter task
Type what you need on Home — a draft, a memo, a research question — and send it. The matter team works in front of you: the roster shows who is working, and the run settles into a document or an answer you can export.
Chat mode gives you the Senior Associate's first pass; Draft mode adds the full review bench (issue-spotting, risk, adversarial review, verification, citation re-check). The engine behind each mode is disclosed in the mode picker — never a mystery model.
Matters & the Command Center
A matter is the durable container for a piece of work. Create one from the Matters surface (or the rail's New matter), and open it to see its brief, runs, documents, timeline, and audit trail in one place.
Rename or archive a matter any time — archiving parks it (reversible), it never deletes work.
Library & exports
Every settled run records to your Library when the durable store is on — browse, preview, and search your whole practice, then export any recorded turn to Word or PDF with its cited authorities appended.
When Microsoft 365 is connected in Settings › Integrations, Library rows can also save to OneDrive or open as an Outlook draft — a draft you review and send yourself; nothing is ever sent for you.
Review & approvals
The Review surface is one queue for everything awaiting your judgment: approval gates, proposed memories, proposed skills, and runs the verifier flagged.
Nothing executes while a gate is pending — approving is what lets an action proceed, and both decisions are recorded in the audit trail.
Scheduled & Keep-Watch
Keep-Watch monitors re-check a research question on a schedule and raise a signal only when the sources genuinely change. Add or remove watched queries on the Scheduled surface.
The surface tells you honestly whether the daily sweep is actually scheduled in this deployment — a saved item never implies a sweep that can't run.
Your data & retention
When the durable store is configured, Data Controls operates the real retention posture: purge your everyday history, purge a single matter (typed confirmation, one audit event), and download the hash-chained audit record as a CSV with its integrity verdict.
Attachments you upload for a run are used for that run and not kept; recorded work persists only when the durable store is configured, and the surfaces always disclose which is true.
