BatesKit is a browser-based tool for litigation teams who need to batch-stamp Bates numbers, confidentiality legends, and exhibit labels across large sets of PDFs — and run production QC before anything goes out the door.
Designed for solo attorneys, small-firm administrators, and legal support teams, BatesKit processes everything locally in your browser. Files never leave your device, which you can verify by disconnecting from the internet while you work. That makes it a safe fit for confidential, privileged, and sealed material that can't be uploaded to a cloud service.
Features:
- Batch Bates numbering with prefixes, suffixes, custom start numbers, and step increments across multiple files
- Real, searchable text stamped in standard PDF fonts, positioned against the CropBox with page-rotation handling
- Opaque backing boxes, confidentiality legends, and per-document exhibit labels
- Read-only production checks: metadata leaks, recoverable text under redaction bars or white-out, numbering gaps, mixed page geometry, and scans missing a text layer
- Content flags for privileged language, SSNs, emails, and phone numbers
- Manifest CSV with BegBates, EndBates, page count, and SHA-256 per document
- One-time $19 purchase with no subscription, no account, and no machine binding
