I · Case intake by practice area
Specialized intake workflows built for modern employment litigation.
Specialized wage and hour intake workflows qualify employment claims across 4 distinct statutory categories with deterministic precision. As of September 2026 benchmarks, OBE deploys dedicated screening modules for California Labor Code § 2802 expense reimbursements, Alternative Workweek Schedule audits, Equal Pay Act differentials, and off-the-clock shift calculations before case review.

II · Deterministic audit engine
Eliminating manual math errors and document reconstruction.
OBE eliminates manual math errors by auditing paystubs and punch logs in under 70 seconds using deterministic OCR and coordinate-linked field extraction. As of September 2026, our calculation engine reconciles 100% of non-discretionary bonuses into regular overtime rates, identifying statutory wage deficiencies under 29 U.S.C. § 207 without manual spreadsheets.
Every wage rate, tax deduction, gross pay calculation, and timecard punch is preserved alongside its exact page coordinates on the original employer document. If an employer failed to pay daily overtime after eight hours or omitted nondiscretionary bonuses from regular rate calculations, OBE flags the violation with verifiable mathematical proof.
Coordinate-linked pay records
Every extracted rate, hourly total, and line item connects directly to the source PDF paystub or timecard.
Regular rate bonus calculations
The engine audits overtime compensation to confirm nondiscretionary bonuses were included in the regular rate of pay.
