01Brief
Inshorts for law
Legalo is a legal-tech mobile concept — an “Inshorts for law” that turns long judgments, scattered legal news, and dense case material into a daily, digestible reading habit. The product serves lawyers, advocates, judges, law students, and corporate legal teams who need signal without sacrificing substance.
We designed the full product experience — research, information architecture, design system, and UI — with AI summarization and legal assistance planned into the structure from the start, not added as an afterthought.
02Problem
Information overload, mobile neglect
Judgments run to hundreds of pages
Dense legal text resists quick scanning on any device — especially mobile.
Resources are scattered
News, digests, and reference material live across portals with no unified habit loop.
Mobile legal UX is poor
Most legal products feel like desktop archives squeezed onto small screens.
Research eats billable time
Professionals lose hours triaging what matters before they can act on it.
03Users
Three readers, one daily loop

04Product
Feed-first by design
We structured Legalo around a feed-first architecture. The atomic unit is a 50–60 word case summary card — scannable in seconds, deep-linkable to full context when needed. AI summarization and legal assistance sit inside the information architecture as first-class flows, not a bolted-on chatbot.
Bottom navigation anchors the product; feed tabs organize content types within the daily habit loop.
