Rwanda is set to launch an AI-powered mobile application designed to provide easy access to legal texts and case law, aiming to improve legal research and access to justice. The app will use artificial intelligence to enable efficient searching and analysis of legal documents, supporting lawyers, judges, and the general public. The government highlights this initiative as part of its broader commitment to innovation and digital transformation within the legal system.

Training programs and capacity-building efforts will accompany the app’s rollout to ensure effective use. Developed through partnerships with technology companies and legal institutions, the app is expected to enhance transparency and reduce barriers to legal knowledge. Rwanda’s project serves as a model for other African nations looking to harness AI in the legal sector.
