Letter ingredients Casyt highlights

Author authority
Relationship context
Specific achievements
Evidence references
Forward-looking impact

Casyt checks for these ingredients when it plans and drafts letters. Encourage recommenders to keep each part crisp and verifiable.

Two ways to supply letters

1. Let Casyt draft them

Casyt plans which letters your case needs: who should write each one and what it should cover.
It drafts each letter in the recommender's voice from your documents, with a short list of facts for them to confirm.
Download it as Word for the recommender to edit and sign, then upload the signed version; it replaces the draft.

2. Upload letters you already have

Add any number of letters as PDF or Word files.
Casyt reads each letter, matches it to the requirement it supports, and cites it in your petition.
Mark whether a letter is signed; the exhibit list reminds you which ones still need a signature.

What great Casyt letters include

National importance: Ties to government data, policy, or public impact.
Well positioned evidence: Results, research, or project highlights that prove feasibility.
Future impact: Why the work benefits the United States going forward.

EB-1A letters

Extraordinary ability: A focused case for why the applicant stands out in the field.
Criteria coverage: Name the EB-1A criteria the letter supports; Casyt maps each letter to them for you.

FAQs for recommenders

Does Casyt store my personal data?

Casyt stores only the details you provide to generate or upload the letter (name, title, organisation, email if entered). Authors can request removal at any time.

Can I edit the AI draft?

Yes. Treat the draft as a structured starting point—personalise tone, add anecdotes, and ensure alignment with your voice before signing.

How do I reference evidence?

Describe the evidence in plain words (for example, "her 2023 award from the IEEE"). Casyt cites the letter as its own exhibit and links each fact to the right document.

Checklist before sharing letters

✅ Letter includes author contact information (email + phone optional).
✅ All achievements tie back to exhibits or resume highlights in Casyt.
✅ Tone stays professional, objective, and specific.
✅ Sensitive employer strategies or proprietary data are removed or generalised.

Next step: upload and tag in Casyt

Store final signed letters in the Letters module, then tag each letter with its focus areas or EB-1A criteria. Casyt will surface the right letters in generated drafts.
