Boards, research & planning
One shared link for your firm, desk, or project team — everyone adds, no account needed
Law firms, consultancies, and associate teams — stop emailing links into the void.
Working a case, diligence project, or client memo? Build a collaborative research Lyst your associates and colleagues contribute to — statutes, filings, news, expert profiles, and internal notes organized by topic. Share via link; collaborators add from their browser without another login.
The problem
Sound familiar? These are the pain points people search for before they find a better way.
- Associates email links that get buried in threads
- No single source of truth for a matter or project
- Enterprise tools are heavy for a five-person team
- New team members can't find what was already researched
What you get
One team link
Pin in Slack, Teams, or email — the whole group files sources in one Lyst.
Contributors without accounts
Associates and paralegals add Refs from their browser — no signup friction.
Organized by matter topic
Sections for pleadings, news, data, experts, and client docs.
Quota-friendly
Items your colleagues add don't count against your plan limits.

Frequently asked questions
- Do associates need ReferLyst accounts?
- No. With contributions on, anyone with the link can add sources and notes without signing up.
- Do colleague contributions use my plan limit?
- No. Only items you add yourself count toward your Ref quota — team contributions are free for the owner.
- Can we keep it confidential?
- Yes. Use an unlisted Lyst — it won't appear in Discover or public search.
- Is this only for law firms?
- No. Consultancies, journalism desks, policy shops, and deal teams use the same shared-research workflow.
