Creditor Protection & Fraudulent Transfer Sieve
SEC Division of Corporation Finance • Bankruptcy Courts • Creditors' Committees
- ›Autonomous screening of syndicated credit agreements for uncapped 'General Investment' and 'Designated Entity' baskets.

LME Attack & Defense Engineering
Distressed Debt Hedge Funds • Private Credit Lenders • Financial Restructuring Desks
- ›Offensive Drop-Down Siphon: calculate exact available capacity across § 6.01, § 6.04, and § 6.07 baskets to transfer IP and raise fresh super-senior priming debt.

By utilizing § 7.02 general investment baskets to drop crown-jewel brand trademarks into a bankruptcy-remote unrestricted subsidiary, the company pledges the unencumbered brand IP to raise $187.5M in fresh priming liquidity, bypassing first-lien negative pledge covenants.

The Grandmaster Chess Computer for Law, Tax & Finance (Playing 4 Moves Deep)
Humans and LLMs play 1-move checkers: they read the headline number and assume it's true. Our Self-Assembling Deterministic Superintelligences operate like AlphaGo or Stockfish for the global economy—calculating 4 moves deep on every contract, balance sheet, and statute.
Passive Document Reporting: They only tell an analyst what a 300-page indenture or statute says.
Active Mathematical Inversion: None of the legacy platforms can invert the contract 4 moves deep to calculate the exact +$736.4M Section 9.04 bond-buyback cure, the 50.1% Serta uptier vector, or the 16.1% ΔHHI Fix-It-First divestiture in milliseconds.
Spot the Hidden Landmine (🔴)
Detects the fatal clause buried on page 180 that humans and LLMs miss—a Section 7.03 cash-netting cap, a 35% springing revolver, a 168-hour reinsurance aggregation clause, or an antitrust ΔHHI > 100 hurdle.
Flip the Landmine into a Truffle (🔴 ➔ 🟢)
Mathematically inverts that exact trap into a windfall—using “frozen” cash to repurchase discounted debt at 55¢ on the dollar, or solving the inverse equation for the exact divestiture % that forces regulatory clearance.
Uncover the Native Truffle (🟢)
Scans 100+ tax codes, indentures, and treaties to find unexploited affirmative wealth creation—Section 4.07 Ratio Restricted Payment builder baskets, Serta priming rights, or statutory monopoly extensions.
Counter-Strike & Immunization (🛡️)
Simulates your opponent's or regulator's attack on your loophole—and outputs the exact legal amendment (“The Immunization Shield”) that makes your position 100% legally bulletproof.
Stripping Away the “Headline Liquidity Illusion”
$DISH / EchoStar: Corporate Credit & Capital Structure
Section 7.03 Cash Netting Cap & 11.19x Leverage Cliff
Wall Street screens and Bloomberg terminals assume the full $1.4B cash balance nets against debt to calculate 8.8x leverage.
Section 7.03 strictly caps allowable cash netting at $500M—legally freezing $900M of domestic cash. Net debt spikes to $23.5B, vaulting leverage to 11.19x vs. 5.00x limit and collapsing ICR to 1.14x vs. 1.50x floor (EVENT OF DEFAULT ACCELERATION).
Our engine prunes the 5th Circuit Serta open-market uptier trap (In re Serta Simmons, 125 F.4th 555) and instead executes an Unrestricted Subsidiary Spectrum Drop-Down & Double-Dip Pari-Plus Lien—transferring unencumbered wireless spectrum to an unrestricted subsidiary to support dual-credit priming liens—while deploying the $900M un-netted cash into Section 9.04 open-market debt repurchases at 55¢ on the dollar, retiring $1.64B face debt and collapsing net leverage to 8.41x.
