LegalTech

Law is slow, precise and unforgiving. Precisely the qualities that match the way we work. Our LegalTech products do not focus on the legal field as a whole, but on two narrowly defined areas in which private individuals and smaller law firms need tangible relief.

Our products in this vertical

• Baueinsprachen — Structured capture and legally compliant submission of building objections
• Suchbemühungen — Documentation of search efforts under Art. 264 of the Swiss Code of Obligations (OR) for tenants in early lease termination

Why we are active here

Both topics have one thing in common: they are relevant in everyday Swiss legal practice, yet so narrowly defined that they are economically uninteresting for large LegalTech providers. At the same time, the formal hurdles for those affected are high enough that many forgo the enforcement of legitimate claims. Our platforms lower these hurdles without diluting the legal substance.

We do not build LegalTech as a generic tool for «all lawyers», but as a sharpened solution for concrete legal situations. This specialisation allows us to take the cantonal and federal particularities seriously rather than abstracting them away under a single layer.

Swiss regulatory context

In the building sector, the procedure is governed by the respective cantonal building law, supplemented by the federal Spatial Planning Act (RPG). The deadlines for objections vary by canton, but are binding everywhere. Anyone who misses the deadline forfeits their formal standing in the proceedings.

In the tenancy sector, Art. 264 of the Swiss Code of Obligations (OR) applies. This provision allows tenants to terminate the tenancy early if they offer a reasonable successor or provide seamless evidence that they have seriously sought one. In practice, this evidence is frequently provided incompletely and regularly leads — before conciliation authorities — to the burden of proof falling on the tenant.

Ethical separation

With Suchbemühungen (tenant side) and Trygva (landlord side, in the PropTech vertical), we operate both sides of the same subject. We make the organisational and operational separation of both platforms public, because it belongs to the substance of both products.
