Legal intelligence, launching in the UAE

Legal work, with the proof built in.

From contracts and case files to source-grounded legal work. MIKE is the AI workspace for law firms and legal departments: matters, documents, review, research and citations in one confidential environment, powered by LILI, the NEO AI brain.

  • UAE first: onshore, DIFC and ADGM
  • Ethical walls by design
  • Every citation carries its status

8.2 Governing law. This Agreement and any dispute arising from it are governed by the laws of the Dubai International Financial Centre, and the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of its courts.

12.1 Claims. The Buyer must notify any warranty claim within six (6) months of Completion, failing which the claim is waived.

14.3 Language. This Agreement is signed in English and Arabic. Where the agreement is relied on before the onshore courts, the Arabic text prevails.

Illustration with fictitious content

In law, an answer without a source is not an answer. It is a liability.

  • Courts expect verified work

    Courts in the region have published guidance on generative AI in proceedings and have penalised unverified authorities. Speed is worth nothing if the work cannot be checked.

  • Three legal systems, one country

    Federal and emirate law onshore, common-law courts in DIFC and ADGM. The right answer depends on the forum, and the forum is often the first question.

  • Two languages on every file

    Contracts and filings move between Arabic and English, and the Arabic text often prevails onshore. Every gap between the two versions is a risk.

The platform

One workspace for the whole matter.

From intake to sign-off, every document, conversation and decision lives inside the matter it belongs to. Three views of the same work: FOCUS to ask, NORMAL to manage, JARVIS to see every step and every piece of evidence.

Product preview built from the approved MIKE interface designs. Fictitious sample data. MIKE opens progressively through the private access programme.

  • Matters

    Teams, parties, timeline and tasks, with restricted matters and ethical walls.

  • Document vault

    Store, read and compare versions inside the matter, never outside it.

  • Tabular review

    The same questions across many documents, with a source on every cell.

  • Ask MIKE

    LILI with legal tools, bound to the scope you choose.

  • Team chat with @LILI

    Channels and matter rooms. Mention @LILI to bring it into the thread.

  • Tasks and approvals

    Deadlines, assignments and four-eyes sign-off for every sensitive step.

  • Citations and sources

    Citation checks against a registry of sources, by jurisdiction.

  • Audit trail

    Who saw, changed or approved what, and when.

The truth engine

Proof first.
Then speed.

MIKE treats every legal reference as a claim to prove. A citation is marked verified only when it matches an authoritative source or a lawyer has reviewed it. That rule lives in the product itself, not in a policy document.

Illustrative check with fictitious references.

  • Verified

    Matched against an authoritative source in the registry.

  • Reviewed by a lawyer

    A named reviewer confirmed it. The review is recorded.

  • Needs review

    No confirmed match yet. MIKE flags it for a lawyer instead of guessing.

  • Source unavailable

    The authoritative text is not connected. MIKE says so plainly.

  • LILI's answers are proposals. A lawyer decides.
  • No scraping of legal portals. No source used without written rights.
  • Every check, review and approval is written to the audit trail.

Confidentiality

If you cannot read it, it does not exist.

Permissions are checked again on every request, every live stream and every tool call. Restricted matters and ethical walls apply to people and to LILI alike.

  • Restricted matters

    Only named members see them. Everyone else gets nothing, not even the title.

  • Ethical walls

    Exclude people from a matter, and the wall holds in search, chat, review and Ask MIKE.

  • Four-eyes approvals

    Sensitive steps need a second authorised person before they happen.

Choose a role to see what it can do

  • Read the organisation's standard matters
  • Open a new matter
  • Decide on four-eyes approvals
  • Read the audit trail
  • Manage the organisation and its members

Restricted matters always need membership. Walls always exclude.

Launching in the UAE

Built for the way law works in the UAE.

The first version of MIKE is built for the United Arab Emirates and its three legal regimes. The next versions extend it region by region.

Federal and emirate law

Federal and emirate legislation in a civil-law tradition. Proceedings before the onshore courts run in Arabic, so the Arabic text of a document carries the most weight.

Legal traditionCivil law
Court languageArabic
Main sourcesFederal and emirate legislation
MIKE focusArabic and English side by side

Expansion roadmap

The UAE first. Then the world, one region at a time.

Each region gets its own legal sources, rules and languages before it opens. Today MIKE is the UAE. The next versions follow in this order.

Order of expansion as planned today. Scope and timing of each region depend on its legal sources and may change.

Powered by NEO AI

One brain behind every answer.

MIKE runs on LILI, the conversational intelligence of NEO AI. The same brain serves every NEO AI vertical, while each vertical keeps its own data, users and permissions.

  • Model-agnostic. NEO AI orchestrates leading AI models and picks the right one for each task.
  • Scoped by design. LILI only works with what you can read in MIKE.
  • One account. One NEO AI identity across the verticals you use.
  • Human authority. LILI proposes. You approve.

Innovation programme

What we are building next.

Each module targets work that legal teams in the region still do by hand. A module opens only when the evidence it depends on is in place.

Court-bound verification

A filing mode that blocks unverified citations, with a documented human override and a verification record.

On the roadmap

Legal time machine

Read a law as it stood on a given date, as amendments change the text.

On the roadmap

Bilingual drafting

Arabic and English side by side, with alerts when the two versions drift apart.

On the roadmap

Jurisdiction router

Onshore, DIFC or ADGM: a proposal of the right forum and rules, always for a lawyer to confirm.

On the roadmap

Evidence DNA

Timelines proposed from the documents, each event linked to its page and confirmed by a person.

On the roadmap

Matter brain

Parties, documents and claims connected as a map that respects every wall.

Our posture

The most protective posture we can take.

  • No scraping

    MIKE never harvests legal portals or court websites.

  • Written rights

    A source enters MIKE only with written permission to use it.

  • Human in the loop

    AI proposes. A qualified person decides.

  • Audit by design

    Checks, reviews and approvals leave a record.

  • Separated data

    Each organisation's data stays inside its own workspace.
