Electronic signatures, case management, contract review, and AI advice for legal service organizations
The Ministry of Justice reports more than 650,000 practicing lawyers in China, more than 38,000 law firms, and annual legal-services revenue above 100 billion yuan. Firms still carry heavy caseloads, dense paperwork, long procedures, and a body of law that moves quickly. Work that depends on manual handling is slow and easy to get wrong, and it rarely meets what clients expect on speed and quality. This solution brings together artificial intelligence, big data, electronic signatures, and a workflow engine for law firms, in-house legal departments, and legal-tech companies.
It covers online signing and evidence preservation, the full life of a matter, clause-level contract review with risk flags, legal Q&A, similar-case search, and draft generation. Natural language processing flags non-standard clauses, valuation-adjustment clauses, and jurisdiction terms. A knowledge graph plus retrieval gives lawyers comparable cases and alerts when regulations change. The signature module follows the Electronic Signature Law and supports CA certificates, timestamps, and blockchain preservation so the signed record holds up.
Lawyers spend about 60% of their time on documents and search. One contract review takes 2–4 hours, and finding comparable cases still means paging through sources by hand.
A missed clause, a blown deadline, or a lost piece of evidence can become a serious loss. Manual practice has no system-level check on those risks.
The Civil Code, the Data Security Law, and other new rules arrive often. In-house teams have to respond quickly, and tracking every change by hand is expensive.
From signature to closing, on one workflow
Contracts, powers of attorney, and lawyer's letters can be signed online, with a CA certificate, a timestamp, and blockchain preservation so the act of signing can be traced and cannot be altered. Batch signing, templates, and approval routes are included.
Filing, evidence, hearings, and closing sit in one record. The file holds documents by type, deadline reminders, team work, and a client portal. It connects to court e-litigation platforms for online filing and electronic service.
NLP reads the clauses and flags non-standard terms, valuation-adjustment clauses, non-competes, and jurisdiction provisions, then produces a review note and suggested edits. Multi-version comparison and redlines are included.
A legal Q&A assistant, similar-case search, statute search, and draft generation. Lawyers get a professional search desk; business users get self-service answers, so repeat work takes less of the day.

AI: Contract parsing and risk flags use NLP models. Similar-case search uses vector retrieval and a knowledge graph. Drafting uses a large language model fine-tuned on legal material so the output stays within a controlled, compliant range.
Security: Signatures connect to a recognized certificate authority. Preservation runs on a public chain or a consortium chain. Data is encrypted in storage and in transit, in line with China's MLPS and privacy requirements.
Integration: The platform connects to OA, ERP, and CRM, and to court e-litigation and government data platforms, so records and workflows move together.
A firm of more than 100 people, with several thousand matters a year, files every matter in one system, with deadline reminders and shared work. AI review cuts a single contract from 3 hours to 30 minutes. Remote signing changes what the client has to do to close.
A company with more than 10,000 contracts a year and a legal team of 10–50 people runs drafting, approval, signing, and filing as one lifecycle. Compliance alerts flag where a new regulation lands. Procurement and sales systems share the same contract record.
Platforms serving consumers or businesses answer with a legal assistant around the clock. A template library plus AI drafting covers the standard work. Signatures and preservation keep the online service legally effective.
What changes: Contract review throughput rises by more than 70%, and similar-case search drops from hours to minutes. Electronic signatures replace in-person signing and shorten the signing cycle by 80%. Digital matter management brings missed deadlines close to zero. AI takes routine work off junior lawyers so they can spend time on higher-value advice.
Shorter cycles, fewer missed risks, and a clearer experience for clients
