For Claude

German statutes and court decisions in Claude.

Without a source, Claude sometimes names file numbers that do not exist. Klaracase makes for fewer hallucinations: Claude searches the Klaracase Bestand and answers with real file numbers that you can click and check yourself.

Also works with the free Claude plan. Free starter credits for your first organization.

01 · The problem

From memory, a file number sounds real even when it is not.

With Klaracase, Claude searches the Bestand first and names decisions that exist there. Every citation leads to the full text. Our benchmark measures the difference:

Measured: without sources, three AI models cited 168 of 374 case numbers we could not confirm. With our data, 1 of 471.

02 · What you get

What Claude can do with Klaracase

Find decisions

For a legal question, a statute or a file number. With court, date and file number.

Read the full text

Claude reads the text of a decision or statute instead of summarizing from memory.

Follow citations

Which decisions a decision cites, and which later decisions cite it.

Check citations

Paste in your draft. Klaracase checks the cited decisions and statutes: do they exist, and is the reference correct?

Try, for example:

  • Which BGH decisions deal with Eigenbedarf in residential tenancies? Give me the file numbers.
  • Check the Fundstellen in this text with Klaracase: ...
  • What did the BGH decide in VIII ZR 271/17? Summarize the reasons.

Claude Desktop and the Claude mobile apps use the same connector once it is set up on claude.ai.

Klaracase does not show up?

Then add Klaracase as a custom server, with this address:

The address you will need
https://klaracase.de/mcp
Copy it exactly as shown.

This way needs a paid plan.

  1. 1Open claude.ai, sign in, and go to Settings, Connectors.
  2. 2Choose Add custom connector. Enter the name Klaracase and the address above, then Add.

MCP is the open standard assistants use to talk to outside services. Klaracase is such a service; you only paste its address.

How to ask

Ask as you would ask a colleague. Name the court or the statute when you know it, and ask for file numbers.

If the assistant answers from memory, add "with Klaracase" to your question. The assistant then has to look it up.

04 · Privacy

What Klaracase receives

Every file number Klaracase returns exists in the Bestand. If Klaracase finds nothing, it says so instead of inventing a match.

Your question goes to the assistant you chose. Klaracase receives only the request the assistant sends, never your whole conversation.

End the access

Under Settings, Connections in Klaracase you see every connected assistant and can remove it.
