Document readiness
Know your submission is completebefore you send it.
Most delays are not caused by a form filled in wrong. They are caused by a document that was never included. PreparedDocs gives you the checklist for what you are preparing, keeps every document against the item it answers, and tells you exactly what is still missing.
PreparedDocs organizes documents. It is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.

What are you preparing?
One engine underneath all of them. Collect the documents, work out what they are, say what is missing, organise what arrived, build the package somebody has to submit. Only the vocabulary and the checklist change.
The problem
The costly mistake is an incomplete package
A submission that is missing a document does not bounce back the next day. It sits, and then weeks or months later it comes back asking for the one thing that was left out. The work of collecting it starts again, and the clock starts again with it.
The fix is unglamorous. Know what is being asked for, keep track of what you have, and check it before you send. That is the entire product.
How it works
Four steps, start to submission
The same four whether you are doing this once for yourself or two hundred times a year for clients.
- 1
Pick what you are preparing
Choose the submission and PreparedDocs lays out the documents it expects, separated into required and supporting.
- 2
Add what you have
Photograph a passport page, drop in a tax return, add the bank letter. Each one attaches to the item it answers.
- 3
Watch the gaps close
Your score moves when an item is confirmed, not when a file is merely uploaded. What is left is always listed plainly.
- 4
Assemble the package
Generate an evidence binder with your documents in a sensible order, ready to print or attach.
What you get
What is actually in it
Checklists that match the submission
Every case starts from a checklist built for that submission rather than a blank folder. You are never guessing what belongs in the envelope.
A readiness score you can trust
Uploading a file does not mark an item done. Someone has to confirm the document is the right one. That is the difference between a progress bar and an answer.
Blank forms, kept current
Search the form library by number or name and open the official blank form without leaving your case. Editions are read from the file itself, so what you see is what you have.
Evidence binders
Turn a finished case into an ordered package instead of a pile of attachments, so whoever reviews it can follow it.
Search across everything you hold
Find a document by what it is and what is in it, across every case, rather than remembering which folder you put it in.
Deletion that actually deletes
Removing a case removes its checklist, its documents and the stored files behind them. Not just the row in a list.
Who this is for
Once, or two hundred times a year
Filing for yourself
You are gathering documents for your own application and you want to know, before you send it, that nothing obvious is missing.
- A checklist for your specific submission
- Upload from your phone as you collect
- A clear list of what is still outstanding
Helping a family member
You are the person in the family who handles paperwork, chasing documents across households and time zones.
- One case per person, kept separate
- See at a glance which case is behind
- Everything in one place, not a chat thread
Preparing for clients
You do this professionally and the bottleneck is not your expertise, it is document collection.
- A shared account for your team
- A readiness view across every client
- Binders ready to attach to a submission
Start on your own without a card. A firm pays per person.
The firm suite adds the client portal, requests, reminders, roles and the audit log. You are only charged for the people you invite.
Start with the case you are working on
Create a case, and the checklist for it is waiting for you. Add documents as you collect them, and let the score tell you when you are done.
Create your first casePreparedDocs helps you organize and check documents. It does not provide legal advice, and it is not a substitute for a licensed professional. Always confirm requirements against the receiving organization’s current instructions for your submission.
