Jurisage - New Free Legal AI



This morning I received an email from my colleague, Michelle Gerrits, at Lambton Law Association, sharing information about a new free Legal AI Platform that you might be interested in trying out - "Jurisage"


I confess that I have not yet had an opportunity to try it personally, but I would be pleased to pass along any comment and commentary you may have regarding its usefulness, etc.


Below is an introduction to the service from their CEO Colin Lachance


Thank you for being among the original supporters of Jurisage and our mission to reduce the gap between legal questions and answers. We're writing today to share some exciting news that we hope you'll find worthy of sharing with your colleagues, contacts and community.


Whether you were an early adopter of our initial tools or a supporter of legal innovation generally, I'm sure you've been as amazed as we've been at the technological advances and new opportunities coming out every day. We want to help you make the most of it, and today's announcement is about steps we've taken to help you.


At Jurisage, we stand in awe of the transformative potential of bringing large language models and related technologies to the domain of legal knowledge.


We are thrilled to play a role in this revolution and very proud of our initial experiments and early service offerings. We’ve had the opportunity to observe the majority of the legal community shift attitudes in a few short months from “what is ChatGPT?” to “we believe generative AI should be applied to legal work.


Our vantage point and our work also connects us to incredible technological advances across multiple domains as academics, the open source community and companies achieve and reveal new possibilities literally every day.


While the astounding rate of change directly augments our ability to achieve ever-more ambitious objectives, it creates a corresponding challenge for the legal industry to define the scope of the services it wants. We don’t see this changing in the near future, and so there is a risk of delayed action and adoption while we all imagine and await the better solution that is to come.


To help move the legal industry forward, Jurisage has decided to make all of its existing services available for free:


Our browser extension that provides instant insights into Canadian case law and that allows you to auto-generate a customized case summary from any web page


Our daily case summaries that allow you to select your preferred court, topics and summary style and receive through email this highly-personalized service


Our case chat, advanced summaries and full-text view dashboard, where it’s like having your own personal assistant or colleague to help you discover and dig into the specifics of individual cases


Why free? What’s the goal?


We’ve found that through providing a safe, trustworthy and helpful entry point for the legal community to explore and adopt generative AI, those adopters find the inspiration to articulate their broader needs and desires.


We’ve carried out some exciting research, pilots and product development with legal industry partners and as a result of legal industry feedback. New products and product possibilities are coming, some of which will be free for all, some of which will be experimental and available to platform subscribers, and some of which will initially be supplied solely to the legal industry partners that have identified an interest and have turned to us to help them move forward.


We’ve heard the current stage of generative AI and LLM technology development described as the preview before the movie, the first inning, and the first step in a marathon. At Jurisage, we’re excited to be a part of building that future and very happy supporting and working alongside those of you who also seek to thrive in what’s to come.
