AI for Law Firms · 2026

Acta Nova

Other legal AIs read the law. Acta Nova reads your firm.

Acta Nova cross-references statute and case law with your firm's case files, deeds and internal notes. Answers consistent with how you work — not generic.

Acta Nova assists. It does not replace. The judgment stays with the lawyer.

The real problem

Three quiet frictions that cost you billable hours and know-how.

Fragmented case files

Email in Outlook, deeds in the case manager, attachments in shared folders, hand-written notes. Picking up a case that's been idle for three weeks takes half a morning before you can even think.

Time eroded by routine repetition

NDA drafts, correspondence summaries, precedent research, email triage. Qualified work consumed by tasks that don't require it — and that no client accepts on the invoice.

Know-how scattered across desks

How the firm structures a brief, drafts an opinion, runs a corporate dispute is written nowhere. When a colleague leaves, half the operational memory leaves with them.

Three problems, one coherent answer.

What Acta Nova is

Intelligence that works inside the firm — not above it.

Built on three non-negotiable principles.

Specialised

Trained on legal language, not a generalist chatbot in disguise.

Synaptic

Every case file builds and maintains its own memory — automatically.

Scalable

Start in controlled hybrid cloud, reach full on-premises. Without rewriting anything.

You decide where the data lives, and when to scale.

The core of the product

Synaptic Dossier — the living memory of the case.

Beyond the time saved, one thing no other tool offers.

Today

  • Picking up a stalled case: 30–60 minutes to reload it
  • Handover to a colleague: half a day of briefing
  • Client asks "where are we?": full reopen

With the Synaptic Dossier

  • Reopen a case: one page, you're in
  • Hand the dossier to a colleague: no briefing needed
  • Answer the client in 30 seconds, with exact figures

The dossier writes itself as emails, deeds, attachments, voice notes and minutes of meeting from calls come in. You review it, correct it, use it.

Things no one else does

Details that change the craft.

Screenshots become evidence

The print-screens bouncing around WhatsApp and email today — client chats, conversations, images — are recognised, catalogued and inserted into the dossier as evidentiary material. No more 'phone_photos' folders.

Catalogue first, send only if needed

The architecture is designed not to over-engineer: the system catalogues and reasons locally, and only queries external models when the request truly requires it — with anonymised data. Most of the work never leaves the firm.

More hardware, more sovereignty

Data sovereignty is a continuous scale, not a switch. As you add dedicated hardware inside the firm, more of the workload stays on-premises. You decide where to stop.

Modular catalogue

Capabilities that switch on only when they make a difference.

Not everything is included by default. Acta Nova is designed not to over-engineer the firm: start with what you need, add only what truly changes the day.

Conservative estimates on standard scenarios. The value calculation on your hourly rate is yours to do — your numbers, your clients, your specialisation.

Continuous scale

Hybrid cloud → fully on-premises. No jumps.

The path is not a three-package menu: it's a continuum. Data scope, agent autonomy and on-prem level are tuned case by case — exactly what you need.

Cloud ibridoOn-premises
Pilot

Entry point

Local archive, first assisted workflows, synaptic dossiers on active cases. Sits alongside existing infrastructure.

Studio

Intermediate configuration

Hybrid architecture with anonymisation, firm-adapted LoRA models, extended suite: research, drafting, opinions, deadlines.

Master

Fully on-premises

Everything on-premises. Dedicated GPUs, hardware warranty, zero dependence on third-party cloud. For highly sensitive data.

The three labels are reference points, not packages. The actual scope is composed on your perimeter.

Data sovereignty

Catalogue locally, leave only when needed.

Acta Nova does not push everything to the cloud by default. The system works inside your network, and queries external models only when the request truly requires it — with anonymised data.

  1. 1
    The document or query stays in the firm
  2. 2
    A local anonymisation layer removes names, entities, identifiers
  3. 3
    Only the anonymised version — and only if needed — reaches the external model
  4. 4
    The reply returns to the firm and is re-contextualised locally
  5. 5
    No identifiable data ever transits or is stored outside the firm

GDPR Art. 9 and professional secrecy compliant. Consistent with the EU Data Act: models and dossiers remain firm property.

Starting point

Pricing is composed on the actual scope.

The entry point covers initial synaptic-dossier setup and a continuous-care subscription. Everything else — volumes, adapted models, on-prem level, hardware — is dimensioned together.
