Free tools

AI law and document-processing tool — in development

ExpatRights is developing an AI-assisted legal-information and document-processing tool for China-related matters. The planned direction is to help users:

  • organize contracts, notices, messages, payment records, and other case documents;
  • identify parties, dates, obligations, missing records, and questions that need human review;
  • build a clear evidence timeline and issue checklist;
  • connect each issue to relevant public legal resources; and
  • prepare better questions for a qualified lawyer or legal professional.

The tool is intended to support organization and research, not replace a lawyer, decide a case, or provide guaranteed legal conclusions. Privacy controls, source visibility, careful handling of personal information, and human escalation are core design requirements.
