MAIQ GmbH — Legal Operating System, Cologne, Germany

The AI-native Legal Operating System

Firm work, rethought — not just digitized.

Classic legal software maps existing processes digitally. The actual work, however, often stays manual.

MAIQ doesn't just change the software. MAIQ changes how firm work gets organized.

The system understands incoming information, connects it to the right matter, and derives tasks, deadlines, and next steps from it. Communication, documents, knowledge, time, and billing all work together in one shared matter context.

No copy-paste. No working across systems. One login. One interface. One complete matter context.

All of a firm's institutional knowledge becomes systematically usable — and can be processed directly from within MAIQ with whichever AI models fit the task, fully compliant with professional-conduct rules. Integrated process automation can be extended with individual agentic workflows.

MAIQ doesn't replace legal work.

MAIQ replaces the work that keeps lawyers from doing it: reviewing, assigning, transferring, filing, following up, and searching back through things. The work that costs time, is barely billable, and nobody enjoys doing.

The AI works in the background. Your team doesn't have to compare models, optimize prompts, or keep learning new AI tools. MAIQ picks the right models and systems for each task, connects them where it makes sense, and keeps the technology foundation continuously up to date.

Your team works the matter. MAIQ organizes the rest.

Design-Partner Phase · since September 2026

Test MAIQ in real day-to-day firm work — and actively help shape its future.

Since September, selected design partners have been using MAIQ with real matter data and in their own workflows. This first version doesn't yet cover the entire firm operation end-to-end and doesn't yet fully replace existing practice-management systems at this stage.

It already shows, however, how MAIQ understands information, prepares processes, and reduces administrative work. Design partners experience the Legal Operating System's potential early and feed their requirements directly into its development.

01 · Understand inbound items and organize work

Email and beA flow directly into MAIQ. Messages and documents are read, matched to matters, and structured. Tasks, deadlines, and priorities appear on the personal dashboard.

02 · Open new matters safely

A guided workflow ties together conflict checks, KYC and AML, matter creation, involved parties, effort estimation, and matter-opening documents. MAIQ automates and documents the process while critical steps stay under attorney control.

03 · Work matters with everything prepared

The central matter workspace brings communication, documents, deadlines, tasks, research, and the current case status together. MAIQ prepares next steps, emails, and drafts so the team can get into the legal work faster.

Test productively, early. Develop it together. Benefit first at full go-live.

Design partners get close access to the product team and can feed real firm workflows, priorities, and requirements directly into development. Once the full version of MAIQ goes live, participating firms get priority onboarding and are among the first to fully move onto the new Legal Operating System.

Security & Compliance

Confidential matter data deserves more than standard security.

MAIQ is built on the principles of privacy by design and compliance by default. Data protection, attorney-client privilege, and human control aren't add-ons — they're built into the architecture, the contracts, and the workflows from the start.

01 · GDPR-compliant

MAIQ processes data on the firm's behalf under a data processing agreement per Art. 28 GDPR. Personal data is processed for a defined purpose, technically separated, and kept deletable under control — without losing the knowledge captured in matters.

02 · Compliant with §203 StGB and §43e BRAO

MAIQ and every sub-processor involved are covered by a dedicated contract structure for holders of professional secrecy obligations. Microsoft and all sub-processors have signed the additional agreement required for professionally compliant processing.

03 · Securely hosted and encrypted

MAIQ runs on Microsoft Azure, hosted in Frankfurt. Data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.3 and at rest with AES-256. Database-level access limits and a complete audit trail protect sensitive firm and matter data.
