Find the statements that never arrived.
Coverage per account: which periods you hold, which you don't. Institution, account, date range. Then a discovery request from the list.
Coverage is computed per account.
For every account, Ordernize plots the periods you hold against a coverage window. 24 months by default, configurable, anchored to today or the filing date. A valuation dispute cares about the filing date; an ongoing support fight cares about now.
Every gap carries the institution, the account, and the date range. Chase ··1827, June 1 through August 31, 2024. Three statement periods.
- Per-account coverage strip — the holdings-vs-gaps picture at a glance
- Configurable lookback, 24 months by default
- End date anchored to today or the filing date — switch anytime
Coverage is computed from the same pipeline that builds the inventory — classified documents, extracted statement periods, deduplicated accounts. See how it works.
Each gap is a task.
Triage, Requested, Resolved. The paper trail rides along, so the list doesn't go stale.
New gaps land here.
Skim the detected gaps, keep what matters, dismiss what doesn't — the closed gym-membership card doesn't need a subpoena. Per-item notes keep your reasoning attached to each gap, so the file explains itself six months later.
Asked for, on the record.
Group outstanding items into named discovery request waves and mark them requested. The record of who was asked for what, and when, keeps itself — no side spreadsheet, no memory test at the status conference.
Closed by the documents themselves.
When the missing statements arrive in a later production, the matching items resolve automatically. Nothing to check off — the coverage math notices the new documents and updates the list.
From the gap list to the request language.
Group outstanding items into named discovery waves. Request language comes from 19 forensic-accounting templates: statements with canceled checks, tax returns with all schedules, W-2s, 1099s, K-1s, real-estate packets, trust listings, entity catch-alls.
Account numbers and date ranges are already in the case record. When the response comes back thin, the next wave lists exactly what remains outstanding.

Gaps aren't only missing months.
Empty-category detection
A category with nothing behind it is a finding. When the real-estate or insurance category comes back empty in a case that plainly should have one, it's flagged — the silence is the evidence.
Missing standard documents
Some documents should exist in every case — the financial affidavit, the tax returns. When a standard document never shows up, it's flagged even though no account points to it.
Entity & trust coverage
Business and trust accounts get their own coverage sections, held to the same statement-by-statement standard as the personal checking. Nothing hides behind an LLC.
Manual items
Add the thing only you know about — the safe-deposit box, the exchange account mentioned in a deposition — and attach it to a real account, entity, or trust already in the inventory. Manual items ride the same lifecycle.
