Matter AI - The AI assistant inside every LEAP matter
Get instant answers from your matter
Matter AI reads every document, email and attachment in your LEAP matter, including scanned PDFs and handwritten notes, and answers with references you can check. It shows its reasoning, turns answers into first drafts, and draws on LawY when your question needs legal research.

How it works in LEAP
Open Matter AI from any matter. Chat about the whole matter, a single document or a folder, depending on what your question needs.
Switch to Comprehensive mode and Matter AI shows each step: how it reads your question, searches the matter and retrieves documents.
Every answer cites the documents it used. Preview them from the answer, and see exactly what’s loaded with Document Status.
Edit any part of the response, generate a first draft in Word, PDF, Excel or PowerPoint, and save it straight to the matter.
New in Matter AI
Matter AI has had its biggest year yet. It now reasons in the open, asks before it assumes, turns answers into working documents and brings LawY’s legal research into the same window.

All Agent: matter facts and legal research, together
All Agent is a dedicated Matter AI workspace that brings Agentic Chat, deeper reasoning and LawY-powered research into one place. It reasons through your question step by step, showing its thinking as it works.
Where your question calls for legal research, it draws on LawY automatically, returning cited legal sources alongside the facts of your matter. It’s built for hybrid questions that involve both.
One workspace, no switching between tools
Cited legal sources make answers traceable and audit-ready
Works for lawyers, paralegals and legal operations alike

Agentic Chat with AI Document Generation
Switch from Fast to Comprehensive and Matter AI shows the steps it takes to analyse your question, search your matter and retrieve documents. This is especially useful for complex questions and multi-document analysis.
Then turn the response into a usable first draft: Word documents, PDFs, Excel spreadsheets or PowerPoint presentations, ready to preview, download or save back into the matter.

Choose the AI model and clarifying questions
Different matters demand different levels of reasoning, speed and depth. The Model Selector lets you choose from leading models by OpenAI and Anthropic, directly in the chat. Pick a faster model for everyday queries or a deeper reasoning model for complex legal analysis.
A short prompt like “draft a brief” leaves a lot unsaid. Agent Chat now asks a brief set of questions first, covering only what it can’t work out from your prompt or your matter: the format, the audience, the jurisdiction, who you act for. Answer once and it remembers for the matter.
AI your firm can control
Matter AI cites the documents behind each answer, and you can preview them without leaving the response.
See which documents are loaded, still loading, failed or excluded, and exclude any document from future responses.
Choose the AI model and switch between Fast and Comprehensive answers to match the task.
For questions of law, Matter AI draws on LawY for cited answers verified by qualified Australian lawyers.
