What we build for law firms

Document review with traceable answers
Reads case files, contracts and data rooms; each finding points to its source passage.
Compliance checks across all your documents
Checks every file and policy against client guidelines and the rules, and marks what fails.
Drafting support with human sign-off
First drafts of letters and memos from your templates; a lawyer edits and approves each.
Assistants that answer from your documents
Answers questions from your own precedents and know-how, with the source passage shown.
Agents that work under approval
Carries out work of several steps, with a lawyer approving each step that matters.

These are examples of what we can build. They do not describe client work.

Each runs as a custom AI solution, a private deployment or an air-gapped system, and for privileged material as one of the last two. How the three differ

Built to the Dutch bar's recommendations

What we build follows the recommendations on AI of the Dutch bar: a policy for the whole firm, supervision of staff and suppliers, and client confidentiality. Confidential files take one of the two routes the bar allows: a supplier under a contract you have checked, or tools hosted and managed inside your firm.

What you risk

On 27 July 2026 a Dutch disciplinary board reprimanded a lawyer who had put case law from an AI tool into court documents without checking it. Read the ruling

So in what we build every answer shows its source, and a lawyer checks each reference before it is used.

For breaking the obligations the Act lists, such as the transparency duties

€15 million or 3%

Source and caveat

Breaking the other duties the Act lists, such as the transparency duties: up to €15 million or 3% of worldwide annual turnover, whichever is higher.

European Union Artificial Intelligence Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, as amended by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744), Article 99(4). Applies from 2 August 2026.

This is the most the law allows, not what is usually imposed. A fine can only follow a duty that applies: the transparency duties from 2 August 2026, the high-risk duties from 2 December 2027 and 2 August 2028.

For mishandling personal data, such as the data in client files

€20 million or 4%

Source and caveat

Breaking the basic principles, the rights of data subjects or the rules on transfers outside the EU: up to €20 million or 4% of worldwide annual turnover, whichever is higher.

General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), Article 83(5). Applies from 25 May 2018.

This is the most the law allows, not what is usually imposed.

The ceiling is the most the law allows, not what is usually imposed. All fines, with their sources

How we work

Five steps from a first conversation to a running system, and the first is free.

  1. Step 1Free briefing
  2. Step 2Discovery
  3. Step 3Design
  4. Step 4Build
  5. Step 5Run and improve

Every paid step has a fixed price, stated in writing before the work starts, and each phase of the build has its own.
