How it works

TIMELINE builds a chronology of events for a case, an investigation or a dispute. Each entry has a date, a neutral description and the source it comes from, and says whether it rests on a document, on what someone said, or on inference. Entries without a time are kept in order, and gaps are marked. Export it for a report or a court bundle. The chronology is kept in this browser.

Doing this often? OBSCURA Case builds the chronology from the documents themselves, each event pinned to its source. On its own, US$4 a month; with everything else, US$9 a month or US$79 a year. 7 days free.
