Hallucinations
Models make things up. It's in their nature. A general-purpose AI can cite a ruling that doesn't exist.
The countermeasure: tools that cite their sources, systematic human oversight.
Legal AI
Legal AI is happening now. Not in five years.
Contract analysis, legal research, clause extraction, document generation. Artificial intelligence is transforming the profession. We help you get the most out of it, without the risks.

They build with us 
Everyone is talking about AI. Your management asks you "where do we stand". Your competitors tout their "innovative solutions". Vendors bombard you with impressive demos.
But between the marketing promise and the reality of your daily work, there is a gap. The AI that answers beside the point. The one that invents case law. The one that costs a fortune for a marginal gain. The one that raises confidentiality questions no one wants to face.
We know these pitfalls. We know what works and what doesn't. We help you deploy AI where it makes sense, and avoid the traps.
Three families
Legal AI software, what is it exactly?
The term covers very different realities. Let's set the record straight.
01
Generative AI (ChatGPT-style)
This is what makes the buzz. Language models capable of understanding a question in plain language and answering it fluently.
The problem: these models "hallucinate". They invent references, cite rulings that don't exist. Used as-is, without safeguards, they are dangerous in a legal context.
02
Specialized legal AI
Tools designed specifically for law. Trained on legal corpora, connected to reliable databases.
It's more reliable. But these are still tools you need to know how to use, configure and integrate. And they are not all equal.
03
AI built into your business tools
AI can be an intelligent layer added to your CLM, your DMS, your billing tool. An assistant that understands context and makes suggestions.
This is often where the gains are most concrete: not one more tool, but your existing tools made smarter.
Use cases
What AI can really do for you.
Forget the marketing promises. Here is what works today.
Analyze contracts
AI scans 80 pages in seconds, identifies sensitive clauses, flags deviations, generates a structured summary.
Measured gain: 40 to 60% less time on contract review
Search case law
Ask the question in plain language. AI searches the sources, brings back the key decisions, summarizes and puts them in perspective.
Caution: this does not replace legal analysis, it speeds up the research phase
Extract structured data
500 contracts to audit for an M&A deal. AI extracts dates, amounts, parties, key clauses. Structures everything into a usable table.
What used to take weeks now takes a few days. And it's more reliable
Generate first drafts
NDA, formal notice, summary memo. AI produces a first draft from your instructions and templates.
Never perfect on the first try, but starting from a document that's 80% done rather than a blank page changes everything
Answer recurring questions
An internal chatbot trained on your procedures absorbs the simple questions. Complex questions are escalated to the lawyers.
Result: fewer interruptions, more time for substantive work
Watch points
What to look at before diving in.
Data confidentiality
When you send a client contract to an AI, where does that data go?
The solution: sovereign deployments, configurations that guarantee your data stays yours.
Integration into processes
An AI tool sitting in its own corner, used by two people: that changes nothing.
The challenge: fitting into your workflows. Being where people work.
The real cost
Several hundred euros per user/month. Plus integration, training, maintenance.
The calculation: work out the ROI honestly, not on marketing projections.
Our track record
What we've already done.
Supernovia · AI-powered legal content creation
A platform that lets lawyers create content (articles, LinkedIn posts) from their own sources: pleadings, notes, doctrine.
The AI writes from what it's given. Zero hallucination, zero fictional case law.
Dairia IA · Assistant specialized in employment law
A tool built by a law firm. The AI is trained on verified sources, specialized in its domain.
Not a general-purpose gadget. A business tool, built by people who practice.
Clause extractor for a legal department
Thousands of supplier contracts. We built an extractor that identifies sensitive clauses and generates a structured report.
Before: weeks. After: a few days.
Contract review assistant
The AI does the first pass: mandatory clauses, consistent amounts, compliant durations. It flags deviations and prepares the lawyer's work.
Time saved: 40%.
The Zevra difference
Why work with us on AI?
We know the law. We're not discovering your profession. We know what an unfair clause is, a settlement agreement, a due diligence. That changes everything in the quality of what we build.
We know AI. We have our hands in it. We know what the models can and can't do. We don't sell you a dream.
We're independent. No partnerships with vendors. We tell you what we really think, even if it's "the best move is to do nothing for now".
We stay pragmatic. AI is not an end in itself. It's a means. We always start from the problem, never from the tech.
