Turn any case into exam-ready notes.

Generic briefs cover the whole case.
Your Torts professor assigns paragraphs 35–67 of Donoghue v Stevenson where Lord Atkin explains the neighbour principle. The other 30 pages are irrelevant to your exam.
Most case note tools summarise the entire judgment: procedural history, dissents, obiter your professor never mentioned. In class, when they ask about paragraph 52, that brief barely covers it and you look unprepared.
Your exam tests what's in your syllabus, not what a generic summariser thinks is important.
