Problem
Law firms and corporate legal departments spend extensive time manually drafting, reviewing, and researching legal documents, often switching between applications and handling unstructured data from PDFs. These processes are error‑prone, slow, and must comply with strict data‑privacy and professional‑confidentiality regulations.
Solution
Claid Legal delivers an AI‑enhanced Microsoft Word add‑in that generates, revises, and formats legal texts directly within the editor, preserving document structure and providing automatic change tracking. The platform leverages a curated German legal corpus—including statutes, over 600 000 court decisions, commentary, and commercial‑register entries—to deliver structured research results and citation suggestions. An integrated workflow builder automates repetitive tasks such as document assembly and case file management. Claid Dictate extends the solution with a system‑wide, legal‑terminology‑aware speech‑to‑text engine that transcribes dictation accurately across any application. All data are stored in GDPR‑compliant German data centers and the service adheres to the EU AI Act, ensuring confidentiality and regulatory compliance.
