The agentic legal workspace

Legal precision meets efficiency.

Give the work to the agent, keep the judgment. Research, review, and redlines, end to end, with every source shown.

One instruction. A run you can inspect.

A run is not a chat reply. It settles a research plan, works through real authority, checks its own support, produces the document, and waits for you before anything leaves the file.

Brief

You open the matter and give your instructions. The file is already loaded: the papers, the earlier research, the decisions taken, and the positions your firm holds.

Matter file · exhibits · jurisdiction

Plan

It settles the research plan before it looks anything up, and shows you. Narrow it, extend it, or send it back, and it works to the plan you approved.

The plan is on the page before the first search

Research

Statute, case law, subordinate legislation, commentary, and your own papers, worked through in parallel across the jurisdictions you set.

Ten jurisdictions · your Drive · the open web

Verify

Finding an authority and relying on one are separate steps here. Each proposition is checked against the passage said to support it, and thin support is reported as thin.

Checked to the passage · authorities listed

Deliver

A note of advice, a marked-up draft, or a schedule, with the authorities attached and nothing leaving the file until you have approved it.

Tracked changes · your approval required

Playbooks

Your positions, not the model’s.

Every firm negotiates to a house standard. A playbook writes it down once: where you open, what you will concede and on what terms, what you will not sign, and the precedent behind each. A partner approves the version, and every review from then on argues to it.

  • Approved, then liveIt takes effect when an approver signs the version, and every point raised records the version it came from.
  • Points raised on the clauseEach one sits on the clause it concerns, with the reasoning and the precedent behind the position.
  • A real redlineTracked changes in the original Word file, numbering and styles intact. Something you can send, not a list of suggestions.
  • Six practice areasCommercial, corporate, employment, IP, litigation, and regulatory.

8rney Desk

The same agent, on your own machine.

Desk points the agent at a folder on your own machine. It reads the papers, drafts, and marks up in place, on the model you connect. Nothing is uploaded unless you send it.

  • A folder is the workspaceChoose it once. The agent works on the papers inside and writes its output back to the same place.
  • Word, Excel, PowerPointTracked changes in the document you already have open, through the Office add-in.
  • Your modelBedrock, Azure OpenAI, or your own provider key. Privileged material reaches the model you chose and nothing else.
  • Skills, commands, MCPYou decide which tools the agent may use, and the same set follows every workspace.
About Desk

Control is the feature.

Approval, authority, the matter boundary, and a record of what was done are part of the work itself. They are not a disclaimer printed underneath it.

How a run is governed

Approvals

Nothing ships without a person.

Anything that would send, file, or overwrite stops and waits for you. You see the change before it lands, and refusing it costs nothing.

Approval gateDiff before applyReversible

Verification

Finding a source is not relying on it.

The authority is found first, then the passage said to support the proposition is checked separately. Thin support is reported as thin, not dressed up as settled law.

Checked to the passageAuthority on the pageNo quiet gap-filling

Isolation

The matter is a boundary.

Access follows the matter, information barriers included. What it may read on one file it cannot read on another, and the record of what it read outlives the session.

Matter-level accessInformation barriersAudit trail

A version built to teach, not to answer.

Academic Mode turns the same research stack into a tutor that will not hand over the conclusion. Universities licence it for their students, faculty, and administrators.

Bring the matter you have been avoiding.

Load the bundle, put the question you would normally leave until Friday evening, and read the authorities before you rely on a word of it.
