Limacta is my vision of how lawyers and people who come into contact with legal or important documents could and should use modern technology. The main aspect is efficiency – not doing anything a machine can do for you, not searching for anything that should already be at hand, and not forgetting anything that has already been said or discovered once before.

Together with lawyers, I tested available tools, their modifications, and — thanks to my technological background — various new possibilities as well. Eventually, after several years of trial and failure, I managed to assemble modern technologies and connect them to the tools we commonly use, so that efficiency, speed, accuracy, legal certainty, and security in working with important documents would regain their value.

Using Limacta brings naturalness, clarity, and simplicity back into working with documents, particularly in the areas of editing, tracking, and maintaining content. There’s no longer any need to figure out how many versions you currently have and who is working with which one, to guess and search for the current final wording of a contract incorporating all amendments, to enable sharing and distributing only parts of a document without losing the link to the primary document, to check how client requirements were incorporated, or simply to leave notes, attachments, and emails linked directly to the relevant places in the document — even for colleagues who will work with the documents in the future. Beyond that, it also allows the machine to complement human capabilities and lets it automatically evaluate the obligations of one party or the other, track deadlines, or monitor changes due to legislative updates across all active contracts.

Thanks to such significant time savings and increased quality of work, people then have more room to devote themselves to what a machine doesn’t handle so well – creative and strategic activities, understanding the client’s needs and their requirements.
