Litigation practice management · AI under lawyer review
Lexiq brings court dates and limitation deadlines, files and bundles, time and billing, and client updates into one connected matter for Malaysian law firms. Its AI reads, researches and drafts, but it only proposes: every date, direction and draft waits for a lawyer’s approval.
The problem
A hearing date lives in the cause papers, a partner’s diary, a spreadsheet and a WhatsApp thread. In October 2026 we reviewed eleven Malaysian legal software vendors: none computes a legal deadline. Every one asks a person to type it in.
One connected matter
Lexiq is built around the matter, civil and criminal, including charge sheets, bail records, co-accused links and custody clocks. A conflict check and a KYC record are created as a matter is opened. Each of the four areas below sits on the same file, under the same audit trail.
Procedural and limitation dates computed in code from the governing rule, rolled past weekends and gazetted holidays, against a versioned rule set. When a recognised trigger document lands, the dates that follow are proposed at once. Each date shows how it was reached.
Filed into the folders a litigation file has: cause papers, correspondence, bills, bundles and contracts, plus an internal folder enforced below the interface. Classified on upload, with versions kept and legal holds.
Hearings with attendees and outcomes, a single month calendar of deadlines, hearings and diary entries, time entries, disbursements and a revenue view for those whose role allows it. Lexiq runs alongside your accounting. It does not do trust accounting.
One file and every next step, plus a restricted client portal where access is an explicit, granted permission. Nothing reaches a client without a person approving it.
How a matter moves
Lexiq reads the whole writ, claim or charge sheet, then returns each field with its own confidence. An absent field returns nothing, not a guess. Instructions hidden in the document are ignored and flagged.
1 warning. Text in the document resembling an instruction was ignored.
Conflict check and KYC record created on opening
Parties, documents by folder, hearings, time and the next proposed date in one place. Custody clocks, remand, limitation and appeal windows are the only things in Lexiq that are red.

Case management
Attendees and outcome recorded
Every date carries its derivation and the rule-set version that produced it. Rules ship only when their worked examples pass, and an override is added beside the original, never in place of it.
Calendar, clear, working or inclusive daysState weekends and holidaysVersioned rule setsOverrides recorded
Each proposed direction sits beside the verbatim excerpt it came from, with its date and working. Nothing is written until a named person confirms, and a date that depends on an event yet to happen is left blank.
“The Defendant shall file its Defence within 14 days…”
“Parties to file a bundle of documents within 21 days…”
“…within 7 days after the close of pleadings.”
On confirm: deadlines and hearings created · audit: detected by agent, confirmed by a named person

AI, under supervision
Lexiq uses AI to read matters, research authorities and draft documents. It proposes; a named person decides. The safeguards sit in the architecture, not in a prompt, so a cleverly worded document cannot argue its way past them.
01 · Matter agent
Pick a matter and give the agent a goal. It reads the file with read-only tools and comes back with staged proposals, each with its reasoning and the material it relied on. There is no write tool: approval is the thing that writes.
02 · Research
Questions are matched against your firm’s own table of verified authorities before any model is called. With nothing on point, it refuses without calling the model. The model may cite only what was retrieved; any other citation is stripped and visibly marked. A starter set of twenty-five Malaysian authorities ships read-only and marked as such.
No authorities retrieved. No model call. Refusal logged.
03 · Intake and directions
Intake reads the whole writ, claim or charge sheet and returns parties, court, matter type and amount, each with its own confidence; an absent field returns nothing. Court directions are detected by keyword, extracted by a model that is forbidden from computing dates, then resolved in code.
Candidate authorities per matter, with a relevance score, a citeable extract and a pinpoint, retrieved in two passes with the second verifying the first. A lawyer must verify each one, and the system records that they took responsibility for it.
Upload a document the firm already uses and the draft follows its structure. Word, PDF, Excel and CSV are read; drafts export to Word or PDF; time is recorded against the matter. The citation lock still applies.
Bundle preparation works from the matter’s document indices, not guesses about filenames. The plan is produced first and reviewed before anything is generated.
Every model call is logged with its token counts, per firm and per user, and shown in the product rather than hidden in a bill. Administrators can see which AI features are used.
| Purpose | User | Status | Tokens |
|---|---|---|---|
| Directions extraction | N. Aina | Completed | 3,412 |
| Research question | K. Raj | Refused · no authority on point | 0 |
| Matter agent run | N. Aina | Proposals staged | 6,980 |
Product illustration, not a live screenshot. Fictional users.
Model calls are logged with purpose, status and token counts, per firm and per user, including those refused before they were made. Every run, step and approval is in the audit log, and AI-produced content is marked wherever it appears. That marking is not a setting.
Ask it something your corpus does not cover. Watching it refuse is more convincing than watching it answer.

Pricing
Six of the eleven Malaysian vendors we reviewed charge by the seat, and several charge again for support staff. Lexiq counts fee earners and lets everyone else in free.
| Tier | Fee earners | Monthly | Annual | Per head at the cap |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chambers | Up to 3 | RM199 | RM1,990 | RM66 |
| Practice | Up to 10 | RM449 | RM4,490 | RM45 |
| Firm | Up to 25 | RM899 | RM8,990 | RM36 |
| Chambers of 50 | Up to 50 | RM1,499 | RM14,990 | RM30 |
| Above 50 | — | Quoted | ||
Annual carries two months free. Fee earners are counted, not headcount: clerks, secretaries and pupils use the system at no additional cost. No tier withholds the deadline engine, the audit trail or the governance controls. Lexiq replaces nothing: it runs alongside your current practice system, and your matters, documents and accounting stay where they are. Government grant matching is not quoted here because scheme terms change between rounds; ask and we will tell you the current position.
Build status
We publish this because the alternative is a site full of things that do not exist yet. If something here matters to your firm, ask where it has got to.
Founding firms
A small number of pilot places, for litigation firms in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Kelantan with one to twenty-five fee earners.
No pitch. How your practice really runs: dates, files, time and client updates.
You bring the matters you want watched. We configure the rule sets for your practice areas and the calendars for the courts you appear in.
You leave with dates already derived, and a say in what gets built next. You keep whatever you already run.
About
Lexiq is built in Kuala Lumpur by Wintech Advisory Sdn Bhd, by one person who also wrote the rules.
It is designed for the court corridor first and the desk second: custody and remand clocks are read standing up, often on a bad connection, often by the most junior person present. Bahasa Malaysia runs alongside English throughout.
Lexiq prepares filings; the lawyer signs and lodges. You will not find testimonials or firm logos here: none will appear without a firm’s written consent.
