Deadline72h
Civil, criminal and personal law
Exhibits, pleadings, deadlines and hearings: the strategy and the evidence are in the matter, with no spreadsheet on the side.
Product
The firm first.AI works on the same data.
Ulpian starts with what a firm handles every day: matters, contacts, time, billing, banking, exhibits and deadlines. Assisted research, drafting and review then build on that same data. You decide what goes to the client or the court.
The platform map
Everything revolves around the matter: your day and the agents, deadlines, documents, billing, clients, the team, compliance, firm management and in-house legal all work on it together, with the same security and the same integrations. The watch walks you through each workspace; choose a point to stop there.
What makes AI a working tool
Without a shared foundation, roles and a link to the firm's practice, even the best assistant stays cut off from the rest of the work. Three principles prevent that in Ulpian.
- 01
One foundation for everything
Matters, teams, finance, exhibits and AI rely on the same data: screens and exports show the same figures.
- 02
Seven permission levels and approvals by named people
Precise roles, approval workflows and a record of who decided, whenever the practice or compliance requires it.
- 03
AI fed by the firm's own work
Assistants, projects, missions and agents use what your teams enter, with no separate copy.
Platform
Five modules, up close
Choose a module: what it changes for the firm, then the shortest way to get there.
Agents, approvals and log
PreviewAgents you can watch at work
- An action plan announced before the run.
- Actions and results that are visible and verifiable.
- Approval before any sensitive action.
An agent is only useful if a firm can direct it: a clear plan, readable actions and a result handed back.
You know what will happen, what happened and why.
Example: litigation
- 01Prepare a memo: the agent proposes an action plan.
- 02It produces the documents, the summary and the checklist.
- 03It hands back the run log and the final result.

Agent missions

AI available today
What the AI does, precisely
Features available in the product today. Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, OpenAI GPT, local Ollama and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint such as OpenRouter work with your firm's own keys. Private AI is available on request.
Legal research on official sources
Three searches in parallel (applicable law, case law, opposing arguments) on the official sources of your jurisdiction. In deep mode, an independent check verifies every citation against the official websites and flags any discrepancy.
Pseudonymisation and AI governance
Email addresses, phone numbers, IBANs, Swiss social security and company numbers are replaced with tokens before any external call, then restored on your side. The firm chooses its policy: Ulpian's keys, its own keys or a local model. Pseudonymisation is on by default before external calls, and an EU or Swiss processing region can be enforced.
The firm's memory, searchable
Search by keyword and by meaning across documents, AI work and the firm's positions. The assistant cites the firm's own know-how, records approved positions and flags contradictions.
An assistant that cites your documents
Questions, summaries, comparisons and extractions on your documents. Every answer points to its source, and the result can be exported to Word.
Dictation while you work
Dictate a note or ask a quick question without leaving the screen. Transcription happens live, in English, French, Italian and German, through a speech engine hosted in the European Union. You save it to the matter, keep a draft or get a short answer with links to invoices, contacts and documents. Audio is not kept on Ulpian's servers.
Tabular review at scale
One row per document, one column per question. Batch filling, cell-by-cell regeneration, export, and a chat on the table to dig into a point.
Workflow library
Assistant or tabular review workflows, supplied by Ulpian or created by your team, shared between roles with precise editing rights.
A team of agents with tickets
Named agents, organised as a team, with tracked tickets, scheduled checks and routines. Every action carries its explanation and its log.
Approval inbox
Approvals by named people on sensitive output, proposals you can revisit and safeguards adjustable for each mission.
Document management
Versions, review states (draft, in review, approved, rejected), legal hold, retention periods, annotations and signed shares. Scans and images become searchable through text recognition.
Secure client portal
Share documents and matter progress through a revocable, time-limited and logged link, with no account for the client to create. Confidential documents are always excluded.
Banking and reconciliation
CAMT imports, manual reconciliation, client funds and a cash view linked to the matter. Open banking is on the published roadmap.
Document storage, with email coming soon
Google Drive, OneDrive and SharePoint, and Dropbox for your existing documents. Email and calendar (Gmail, Outlook) are being integrated.
Audit and compliance
An exportable log, matter access open to the whole firm or restricted with individual permissions, and a record of the tools used by agents.
Agents
Agents that prepare, lawyers who decide
Each agent says what it will do, shows what it did and waits for your approval before anything is sent.
- The plan is visible before the run starts.
- Every step and result stays readable.
- Anything that leaves the firm waits for approval by a named person.
- An agent never exceeds the rights of the person who directs it.
You see what will happen, what happened and why. You can stop a run at any time.
