What is ligi.ai?
ligi.ai makes AI tools for Maltese legal practice: Research Assistant for case law and Court Assistant for eCourts. ligi.ai is an independent tool and is not affiliated with the Courts of Malta.
What does ligi.ai cover?
Maltese case law (court judgments), with new judgments added every week. Not legislation. Research Assistant searches over 137,000 Maltese court judgments, and Court Assistant follows your firm’s own cases on eCourts.
Does ligi.ai include Maltese legislation?
No. ligi.ai covers court judgments only.
How is ligi.ai different from searching eCourts?
eCourts is the official source of Maltese judgments, and its keyword search matches the exact words in a judgment. ligi.ai turns your question into the legal terms the judgments use, searches in English and Maltese, and returns a list of judgments with a summary of each, linked to its eCourts page. Our guide to finding Maltese court judgments compares the two.
Can I search in English and Maltese?
Yes. You can ask in English or Maltese, and Research Assistant finds judgments in either language.
How does Court Assistant work?
Add your cases by number, one at a time or in bulk, and assign each a client and a handling lawyer. Court Assistant follows them on eCourts every day and puts each sitting into one calendar the whole firm shares. When a sitting’s verbal sets a deadline, Court Assistant finds it and asks before adding it.
How much does ligi.ai cost?
Both tools are free to start: Research Assistant with 2 questions a month, Court Assistant for up to 2 active cases. Paid plans from €84.75 per lawyer a month (Research Assistant) and €69 a month for the first 15 active cases (Court Assistant), ex VAT. The pricing page has the full rates.
Is there a student plan?
Yes. Students with a um.edu.mt email address can use Research Assistant for €15 a month.
Can I talk to someone before I sign up?
Yes. Book a 20-minute call with Kurt, the founder, and until 30 November your first month on both tools is free.
Where is my data stored, and is it used to train AI?
Your account, your history and everything you save in ligi.ai are stored on servers in the EU. Your questions, saved cases and libraries are never used to train AI models, ours or anyone else’s. The security page has more detail.
Who is behind ligi.ai?
ligi.ai is built in Malta by Day One Advisory Ltd and was founded by Kurt Hili. The About page introduces the team.
