MAKATI CITY, Philippines (June 2026) — Hours spent digging through case law, statutes, and legal documents could soon become much shorter, thanks to a new AI platform built specifically for Philippine legal professionals.
Technese Legaltech Inc. has launched Intellegal, an AI-powered legal research and document review assistant designed to help lawyers, law students, bar reviewees, and corporate legal teams find, analyze, and verify Philippine legal information from a single platform.
Instead of switching between legal databases, statutes, and personal notes, users can search, compare, and review legal materials through one AI-assisted workflow. The platform is designed to speed up research without replacing a lawyer’s professional judgment.
Research that points back to the source
One of Intellegal’s biggest selling points is its focus on verifiable citations. Rather than generating answers without context, the platform links its legal analysis back to the original cases and legal authorities, allowing users to review the underlying sources before drawing conclusions.
Its Case-Law Analytics engine combines case search, statutory matching, and legal analysis in one workspace. Meanwhile, the Deep Synthesis feature lets users ask legal questions in natural language and receive structured research reports based on Philippine laws, regulations, and jurisprudence.
Hazel Bascon, co-founder of Intellegal, said the goal is to help legal professionals move from a question to relevant cases and governing laws more efficiently, while ensuring that every conclusion can still be verified.
“The judgment still rests with the lawyer,” Bascon said.
More than just a search tool
Intellegal also includes several AI-powered tools designed for everyday legal work.
Law Explorer helps users navigate Philippine laws alongside related case law, making it easier to understand how statutes have been interpreted by the courts.
Case Contrast compares multiple court decisions by examining their legal issues, facts, rulings, and reasoning, helping users identify similarities and differences across cases.
Visual Digest transforms lengthy legal documents into visual summaries, allowing users to grasp key arguments and document structures more quickly.
For contract review, the platform analyzes documents clause by clause against relevant Philippine laws. It flags potential issues using four categories: Must Fix, Should Fix, Optional, and Missing. It can also generate redlined documents with suggested revisions, each supported by a legal basis.
Built for the Philippine legal community
Intellegal is available to law students, bar reviewees, solo practitioners, law firms, and in-house legal teams.
The company said the platform encrypts user data both in transit and at rest, and keeps uploaded documents, research history, and personal information confidential.
Rather than replacing lawyers, Technese Legaltech positions Intellegal as an AI assistant that helps legal professionals spend less time on repetitive research and document review while keeping legal decisions firmly in human hands.
The company said it will continue expanding the platform with features tailored to the needs of Philippine legal practice.
Availability and subscription pricing were not announced.
