    supporting references from invoices so the assessment starts with structured
    evidence, not manual re-keying.

<MdxOutcomeCards heading="Start from the matter, not the spreadsheet.">
  <MdxOutcomeCards.Item icon={Scale} title="Apply the right rules">
    Capture fee scales, caps, exceptions, and matter-specific assumptions at
    intake, so every assessment starts from the correct legal frame instead of a
    loose spreadsheet model.
  </MdxOutcomeCards.Item>

<MdxOutcomeCards.Item icon={FileSearch} title="Trace every conclusion">
  Keep recommendations connected to the source documents, extracted issues,
  charge categories, and reviewer decisions that shaped them, so the final
  position can be checked and defended.
</MdxOutcomeCards.Item>

<MdxOutcomeCards.Item icon={ShieldCheck} title="Confirm the judgment calls">
  Give reviewers clear checkpoints for assumptions, exceptions, and risk
  positions, with enough structure to record judgment without flattening the
  legal nuance of the matter.
</MdxOutcomeCards.Item>

  <MdxOutcomeCards.Item
    icon={ArrowRightFromLine}
    title="Move from review to action"
  >
    Turn findings into structured next steps for negotiation, recovery,
    approval, or reporting, with the supporting rationale already organised for
    the people who need to act on it.

<MdxFaq heading="Common questions.">
  <MdxFaq.Item question="Can the assessment rules be changed for a jurisdiction or client?">
    Yes. The domain can reflect the assessment method, fee settings,
    assumptions, and approval model that apply to the work.
  </MdxFaq.Item>

<MdxFaq.Item question="Does this replace legal review?">
  No. Mobius structures the evidence and recommendations so legal reviewers can
  focus their judgment where it matters.
</MdxFaq.Item>

<MdxFaq.Item question="Can the output be reused across a portfolio?">
  Yes. Assessments can be standardised so teams can compare matters, track
  recovery themes, and report consistently.
</MdxFaq.Item>

<MdxFaq.Item question="What documents can be included in an assessment?">
  Costs agreements, bills, narratives, chronologies, correspondence, and
  supporting evidence can be collected against the matter so reviewers work from
  one organised record.
</MdxFaq.Item>

  <MdxFaq.Item question="Can the assessment be handed back to the legal team?">
    Yes. The output can include the assumptions, evidence links, reviewer
    decisions, and next steps needed for internal sign-off, negotiation,
    recovery, or reporting.
