Case Study: Adalat AI makes India’s courts accessible with Claude

Adalat AI makes India’s court system accessible to millions with Claude

Adalat AI, a legal-tech nonprofit, faced the immense challenge of making India's overwhelming court system accessible. With over 50 million pending cases and information locked in complex English legal jargon, ordinary citizens, especially non-English speakers, were often left in the dark about their own cases. To tackle this, they turned to the vendor, Anthropic, and its Claude platform.

By implementing Claude's API and Claude Code, Adalat AI built a national WhatsApp helpline. Claude summarizes and translates complex court orders into clear, actionable takeaways in multiple Indian languages. Internally, Claude Code accelerated engineering, yielding 50-200% productivity gains and allowing a single engineer to deploy production-ready products in under 30 days. This solution has transformed inaccessible legal artifacts into understandable information for millions.
