Our Mission ⚖️
Since 2016, Doctrine has been committed to a major democratic challenge: making the law more accessible. We are the first AI-powered legal platform that helps lawyers and legal professionals free themselves from repetitive, time-consuming tasks so they can focus on what truly matters—at every stage of their work: whether it’s understanding a case, conducting legal research, or drafting documents.
Today, Doctrine welcomes over 1 million visits every month, with dozens of new legal professionals joining us every single day. Our ambition goes beyond borders: we aim to become the European leader in legal AI. After France, we have already launched Doctrine in Italy, and we are currently expanding into Germany with a strong conviction: you must think globally while executing locally. That’s why we work closely with our clients, striving to understand the unique subtleties of each legal system. And this is just the beginning!
