BundleCreator is a court bundle service with a continuously-verified procedural system behind it. Every area of law gets a visual tube map of its journey, from pre-action through hearings to enforcement. Twenty-four specialist AI reviewers — covering child arrangements, employment, criminal, immigration, SEND, regulatory law and eighteen other areas — check every template each week against today's legislation. Every template carries the date of its last expert review. The bundle is what brings you in. The verified procedure underneath is what makes it worth using.

We understand

Preparing for court should not feel this overwhelming

A UK court bundle is a single paginated, indexed PDF containing every document a judge or tribunal needs for a hearing. Prepared by hand, a 350-page bundle can take four hours or more to format — pagination, section lettering, index, hyperlinks, compression, and a practice-direction-compliant layout all done manually in Word or a PDF editor. Every time a new document arrives, the entire index has to be regenerated.

With BundleCreator, the same bundle typically takes under an hour. The software handles the technical compliance work — pagination, indexing, bookmarks, continuous or per-section numbering, and the format required by Practice Direction 27A or the tribunal rules that apply to your hearing — so you can focus on the substance of your case.

What Is a Court Bundle?

Before a hearing, the judge sits down with one thing: the bundle. The judge’s perspective, what you need to provide, and how the rules vary across Family, SEND, Employment and Immigration proceedings in England and Wales.

Everything You Need to Prepare Your Court Bundle

BundleCreator handles the technical formatting so you can focus on your case.

22 Areas of Law, In Depth

BundleCreator provides over 370 court bundle templates across 22 areas of UK law, organised by hearing stage and aligned to the applicable practice direction or procedure rules. The 22 areas are: Child Arrangements, Divorce & Finance, Domestic Abuse, TOLATA (property disputes between unmarried couples), Public Children Law (care proceedings), Family Law (general), Small Claims, Commercial Litigation, Personal Injury, Housing Disrepair, Conveyancing, Commercial Property, Employment Tribunal, Immigration & Asylum, SEND Tribunal, Property Chamber, Money & Tax, Criminal, Wills & Probate, Intellectual Property, Bankruptcy, and Medical Negligence. Each area contains templates mapped to the specific hearing stages within that jurisdiction — for example, the Family Court templates follow the FHDRA → DRA → Fact-Finding → Final Hearing progression and are structured for Practice Direction 27A (updated March 2026). Employment Tribunal templates follow the ET1 → Case Management → Merits Hearing progression under the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013. Every template includes yellow-highlighted guidance text that strips automatically on export, so the final bundle contains only the professional document.

Over 370 Templates with Built-In Guidance

Every one of the 370-plus pre-built BundleCreator templates is pre-filled with yellow-highlighted guidance text that explains what to write in each section, which documents to include, and the order the court expects. The guidance strips automatically on export so your final bundle contains only the professional document. You do not need legal training or prior court experience to produce a court-ready bundle — the template tells you exactly what goes where, and the bundle index is generated for you. Templates are mapped to the relevant Practice Direction or procedure rule for each document type and reviewed internally before release.

Government Forms In-Browser

BundleCreator includes over 35 official UK government court forms — ET1 and ET3 for the Employment Tribunal, FL401 for non-molestation and occupation orders, C100 for child arrangements, SEND35 for the SEND tribunal, N208, and more — that you complete directly in the editor. Forms are filled on-screen, saved as part of your bundle, and exported as flattened PDF pages so they cannot be tampered with after submission. No printing or scanning required. New forms are added as HMCTS and the tribunals publish revisions.

AES-256 Password Protection and UK-Hosted Data

All BundleCreator customer data is hosted in the United Kingdom (Google Cloud, London region) and encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit. You can also apply AES-256 password protection to the exported PDF bundle itself, with granular permissions controlling who can print, copy, or annotate the file. The encryption step is performed entirely in the user's browser; the unencrypted PDF is not transmitted during encryption. Audit logs are retained for seven years. Penetration testing is scheduled for August 2026.

Smart PDF Compression

BundleCreator uses a dual-pass PDF compressor that typically reduces bundle file size by up to 70% while preserving the 300 DPI resolution needed for court-legible exhibits. In one customer example, a 56 MB bundle of scanned evidence compressed to around 15 MB — small enough to email, upload to CE-File, or submit to a court portal with strict file-size limits. Compression runs after the bundle is assembled, so indexing, pagination, and hyperlinks are preserved. The compressor is written in Rust for speed.

Video Evidence with QR Codes

BundleCreator lets you upload video files — incident recordings, CCTV clips, or screen captures — and the exported PDF includes a scannable QR code at the relevant page that links back to the video. Judges and court staff can view the evidence directly from the printed or on-screen bundle without hunting through separate files. Subject to the court's own policies on external links in bundles, which vary by tribunal and jurisdiction. Check local practice before relying on QR links for your hearing type.

What users have said about BundleCreator after preparing their bundles

BundleCreator is used by litigants in person and solicitors across England and Wales, and is built for barristers, paralegals, legal executives, and McKenzie Friends. Users have prepared bundles for hearings in the Family Court, County Court, Employment Tribunals, and SEND Tribunals. In verified reviews, users report reducing bundle preparation time from days to hours — one litigant in person compressed a 361-page bundle from 56 MB to 15 MB while maintaining 300 DPI resolution. Paul Waterworth, a retired District Judge, has observed: “A good bundle cannot win a bad case, but a bad bundle can damage a good case.”

“As a litigant in person, BundleCreator was invaluable. What would have taken days of stress, I completed confidently in hours. My 361 page bundle packed with large images had been 56MB and amazingly BundleCreator compressed it to only 15MB, still at 300 DPI.”

“Outstanding service from BundleCreator.co. Their support spent around 30 minutes on the phone with me late at night to help resolve a minor issue so I could get a bundle submitted to the High Court the next day. I've purchased other bundling software before, but this is by far the most user-friendly system I've used — and I've only created under ten bundles myself. The layout is clear, intuitive, and the built-in compliance checker is incredibly useful. It even picked up line-spacing issues in my bundle. Exceptional dedication and an excellent product.”

“A friend recommended BundleCreator. I used one of the built-in templates for the chronology and another for my position statement, which I'd never have known I needed. The platform told me exactly which sections my Housing Disrepair bundle required and put everything in the right order automatically. I was able to share my bundle with a Direct Access Barrister, which in the end saved me time and money.”
