Background :
The UAE has launched a fully integrated AI-powered judicial platform, marking what officials describe as a global first for court operations. Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, UAE Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Presidential Court, announced the launch on Tuesday, saying innovation paves the way toward a more efficient and faster justice system.
The platform brings case analysis, legal research, precedent retrieval and judicial document preparation into a single system, letting judicial teams review case files, access legislation, and draft legal memoranda without switching between separate tools. Judges retain full authority over final rulings, with AI functioning strictly as decision support across court workflows.
Officials expect the integration to cut litigation timelines and bring more consistency to judicial procedures, giving court teams the ability to handle larger document volumes and pull comparable precedents faster.
The launch builds on a broader wave of automation already underway across UAE government and judicial services. Ministry of Justice systems have processed more than 125,000 transactions through automated services, reaching over 77,000 users.
The UAE Public Prosecution has also piloted the Bayan Smart Translation Centre, developed with Presight, to support multilingual legal translation and bilingual investigation records.
Remote dispute resolution has expanded too, with courts now able to endorse videoconference settlement agreements carrying the legal force of court orders.
Together, these systems form an expanding digital justice programme, connecting research, translation, dispute resolution and case administration under a unified structure while keeping human oversight central to every judicial decision.
