In 1989, Loislaw produced the first database of Arkansas Supreme Court decisions on CD-ROM. Called "Casebase," the legal research database offered a comprehensive collection of decisions dating back to 1945, and garnered the Technology Award from the National Center for State Courts in 1990. In the early 1990s, Loislaw developed a proprietary legal search and retrieval platform for CD-ROM called "PITA" and expanded its content offerings to include many new state jurisdictions. When the internet became widely accessible in the mid 90s, Loislaw launched "PITA.com" and adapted its growing CD-ROM product line for internet delivery. In 1998, Loislaw registered the domain name "Loislaw.com" and redesigned its website to reflect the acquisition of primary law for all 50 states and U.S. territories.
