The problem

South African legal information is scattered across portals with limited keyword search, while international e-discovery platforms are often priced beyond the local market.
A WhatsApp-based job platform (Altur), Harambee Youth Accelerator's move from a mobisite to WhatsApp, and eButler's WhatsApp ordering with payments through Flash.
A Chrome extension captures job ads; a LangGraph workflow parses the CV and the ad, scores the match and drafts tailored cover letters and CV revisions.

What was built

An integrated research, e-discovery and learning platform: hybrid semantic search across more than 10,000 judgments, a precedent citation graph, structured document extraction, AI-assisted discovery and stateful research workflows.
—
A Chrome extension captures advertisements, stores them in PostgreSQL and queues analysis. The platform compares a CV with a job description, produces a structured match score and generates tailored cover letters and CV revisions.
