Dramatic literature Shakespeare: The Funeral Orations Can a forensic analysis engine decode the most famous rhetorical irony in English literature? Four centuries of criticism treats these speeches as Antony’s triumph over Brutus. The engine refuses to take sides: Brutus asserts without evidence, Antony provides evidence but embeds it in manipulative indirection. Both fail the same standard. Even the plebeians are evaluated — and found to demonstrate “a catastrophic collapse of deliberative capacity.” No one emerges unscathed. The verdict: legitimate public deliberation on whether Caesar’s assassination was justified did not occur. View analysis → Political writing Orwell’s “Politics and the English Language” What does forensic analysis reveal about the most celebrated essay on writing in the English language? Turns Orwell’s own method back on him. The diagnosis is brilliant: grounded, evidenced, devastating on its specimens. But the central claim, that reforming language can regenerate politics, rests on analogy rather than demonstration. The essay succeeds as diagnosis; its prescription outruns its warrant. View analysis → Political interview Thatcher–Walden: The Lawson Resignation What does the communicative evidence actually reveal about the interview that shook a premiership? The evasion is systematic — but domain-specific: away from accountability questions, Thatcher is coherent and consistent. This proves strategic choice, not incapacity. The verdict: a fundamental failure of accountable governance. View analysis → Custodial interview O.J. Simpson: The LAPD Interview The most infamous police interview in American history. What does the communicative evidence actually show? Simpson’s account of his hand injury — the physical evidence connecting him to the crime scene — contains four contradictory statements in sequence. His recall on peripheral matters (flight numbers, addresses, contact details) is precise; on critical evidence, profoundly vague. The minimization is systematic across domains: domestic violence (“I wrestled her”), physical evidence (“no big deal”). Selective memory, not absent memory. View analysis → Forensic interview Prince Andrew: The Newsnight Interview The entire world has judged this interview. What does the communicative evidence actually establish — and what remains genuinely unknown? The communicative failure is independent of the underlying truth. Even if every contested fact were resolved in Andrew’s favour, his response patterns would still constitute severe discoursal breakdown. The interview intended as damage control became a damage multiplier for the institution he sought to protect. View analysis → Philosophical essay A Dog Called Barksdale What happens when [sic] is turned on its creator’s own writing? An essay about AI, intentionality, and the nature of connection — submitted to the engine by its author. The analysis finds the argument philosophically suggestive but evidentially incomplete: an unresolved tension between the claim that intention provides “ethical substrate” and the conclusion that synchrony without understanding is “the most we can hope for.” View analysis →

The analysis engine identifies structural findings, evidential gaps, and the points where claims outrun their warrant. But the report is a starting point, not an endpoint.

What if you could question the reasoning behind a specific finding? Suggest an alternative interpretation and test it against the evidence? Upload further documents to close the gaps the engine has identified — and build a complete, watertight case across an entire body of evidence, held to the same forensic standard throughout?

The full [sic] interactive forensic assistant will do exactly that.
