The AI Features Specification defines a modular architecture for integrating artificial intelligence capabilities into legal technology and other knowledge-intensive systems. Rather than requiring a single AI stack or vendor, the specification establishes a common framework that can support different language models, retrieval systems, legal databases, reasoning workflows, and deployment environments. Its modular design allows implementations to adopt the capabilities they need while maintaining a consistent architectural foundation.
The core features include large language model integration, retrieval-augmented generation, jurisdiction-aware reasoning, citation-supported responses, confidence scoring, legal knowledge retrieval, structured analysis workflows, and continuous legal data updates. Together, these modules provide the foundation for AI systems that can retrieve relevant legal information, consider jurisdictional context, produce structured analysis, associate conclusions with supporting sources, communicate uncertainty, and maintain awareness of changes to legal information over time.
AI Features also provides an optional plugin architecture for extending the core capabilities. Plugins can add additional language models, jurisdiction-specific functionality, legal data sources, vector and hybrid retrieval systems, citation formats, specialized legal reasoning workflows, verification mechanisms, continuous-update services, human review processes, and model-routing capabilities. This allows specialized functionality to be added without modifying the core specification.
The specification emphasizes provenance, interoperability, version awareness, vendor neutrality, and human oversight. Implementations can be designed for local-first environments or connected deployments and can scale from a focused legal AI application to a larger multi-jurisdictional intelligence platform. By separating foundational AI capabilities from optional extensions, AI Features provides a flexible architecture for building and expanding AI-powered legal systems while preserving consistent interfaces between their components.
This specification is released under the AGPL-3.0+ license and is free to use with required attribution. Attribution-free deployments may obtain a Specification Branding License, with fees based on usage, deployment scope, and environment size.
