Data retention by LLMs

We do not believe any of the current AI tools available on the market, including the enterprise paid versions, protect confidentiality as all of the data is either processed or hosted outside Australia. We've done an analysis of these tools and we believe that LegalScout's decision to host all of its data within Australia is the best of the available options.
Julian Phillips
Director, Flint Lawyers
Recently, I was pleased to host a presentation by LegalScout to the students in the Technology and the Law unit I run at the School of Law, University of New England. The LegalScout team presented an innovative and practical solution that clearly has the potential to make a meaningful difference in the way lawyers work. What stood out most was not only the strength of the product but the genuine commitment behind its development. LegalScout reflects a thoughtful understanding of the legal profession and a clear focus on improving efficiency, accessibility, and day-to-day practice.

LegalScout is like having a lawyer in my pocket, and can potentially save me thousands on external spend.

If I had LegalScout 6 months ago I could have created a statement of claim in minutes not hours

I've tested LegalScout against ChatGPT and Co-pilot and LegalScout is a much more comprehensive Legal AI tool than public ones.

I've tried Claude and others, but it's very difficult to get them to do what I want for my work. LegalScout just works for legal.
Enterprise In-house GC
General Counsel, Enterprise
There's lots of stuff that we do that involves various kinds of legal documentation, and clients ask AI and it comes back and you just go - that doesn't meet Australian law.

LegalScout is an easy-to-use AI assistant designed for Australian SME law firms. The solution is completely private and does not expose your IP to public large language models. Having been developed from the outset within an Australian legal context, results can prove a lot more trustworthy than commonly used, generalist AI tools. LegalScout is not a point solution - out of the box it offers Document Drafting, Contract Review, Legal Research, and Document Comparison, to name a few. Why pay for multiple subscriptions when one platform does it all?
