Legal. Done by the model.
Legal work runs on long-form reasoning over precedent, regulation and contract. Aether treats this the same way it treats long-horizon scientific reasoning — memory with provenance, citations linked to source, audit trail per decision. Used by litigation-support, regulatory-compliance and contract teams who need reasoning that holds up under review.
What the model actually computes.
These are the workloads the AI runs in legal — rendered live in SVG. Each panel is the geometry the model is reasoning about, the physics it solves for, and the validation it lands against measured reality.
Aether is the AI doing the legal work.
Three things to know about the AI underneath every workload on this page. We aren't building a chat surface for your team — we are training a foundation model that plans, runs and reports.
The AI does the discipline
Not a chat interface over your engineers. A foundation model that plans the study, picks the method, runs the agents, validates against measured reality and writes the report. The same shape an experienced practitioner would follow — done by the model.
One model, your context
We don't ship a sibling model per industry. The same Aether weights serve every discipline, but the agents on top are trained against your standards, your historical data and your regulatory posture.
Reality is the regulariser
We train on simulation, instrument and design data — not scraped text. The model gets better the more reality it touches. Reality is what tells it when it's wrong.
The work, done by Aether.
These are the workloads Aether already runs in legal. Not a wish-list. Each ships with validated benchmarks and traces a senior engineer can read end-to-end.
- 01
Contract review
Whole-document review with clause-by-clause flag-and-redline. Comparison across versions, jurisdiction, and counterparty.
- 02
Litigation support
Document review at scale with relevance and privilege classification. Audit trail per document and per call.
- 03
Regulatory compliance
Track regulation changes, map them to internal policy, surface gap analysis. Long-horizon memory handles multi-year regulatory programmes.
- 04
Matter management
Long-running case state, deadlines, document inventory. Capability gating supports separation-of-duties between litigation and corporate.
- 05
Legal research
Case-law search with citation graph, judicial opinion analysis, statutory interpretation. Citations are linked to source rather than fabricated.
- 06
Privileged-matter handling
Air-gapped deploys with role-based access. Privileged work product stays within the matter team; bills and matter status flow up the firm hierarchy without leaking content.
“We are building the AI that does legal — not the one that talks about it. Aether doesn't ask your engineers to drive its solvers. It runs the work, validates the artefact and writes the memo.”
The stack today.
The typical stack in legal — a half-dozen seven-figure renewals stitched together with internal glue code. We replace the spine; we don't touch the niches that work.
The agents in the mix.
Aether coordinates these specialist agents for legal. Each is independently deployable, but the coordination — and the foundation model underneath — is what makes them more than a folder of scripts.
How we ship into regulated legal.
The pieces that matter to procurement, security review and the regulator. We ship into industries where the boundary is real and the audit is unforgiving.

Questions about legal.
What does Aether replace in legal?
The incumbent stack here — Legacy contract-review tooling, Per-seat litigation databases, Regulatory-compliance spreadsheets, Bespoke matter-management systems — collapses into one model and one project file, with Aether doing the work under one safety story.
What outcomes should we expect?
Provenance (every citation linked to source); Audit-trail (per decision, immutable); On-prem (deploys for privileged matter) — scoped to your workload and measured against your own acceptance criteria.
How does a pilot work?
Three to eight weeks against a workload and a win condition you co-author. We run alongside your incumbent stack on real cases; if we aren't better on the metric by quarter end, the rest of the quarter is on us.
Can it deploy inside our boundary?
Yes — managed, in your VPC, on-prem or fully air-gapped on Aether Cloud, with the audit trail and provenance the regulated parts of this work require.
The AI is ready for legal.
Send us the workload that hurts. We'll come back with a scoped pilot — three to eight weeks, win condition co-authored. If we aren't better on the metric by quarter end, the rest of the quarter is on us.
