Josef
Josef is a no-code legal automation platform built by the Australian company Josef, founded in 2017 by Tom Dreyfus, Sam Flynn and Kirill Kliavin. Teams build chatbots, document generators and intake workflows without code, add Josef Q for AI answers grounded in their own policies and playbooks, and use the Rapid Ingestion Engine to turn email threads, notes and term sheets into structured workflow inputs. The result is fewer repetitive legal requests and faster self-service for sales, HR and procurement.
About the product
Josef is a no-code legal automation platform from the Australian company of the same name, founded in 2017 by two lawyers and a developer. It targets the repetitive questions, document requests and intake tickets that consume in-house legal and compliance capacity, letting the business serve itself inside guardrails that the legal team defines.
Key features of Josef include:
- No Code Workflow Builder: Builds intake, triage and approval workflows in a visual designer, so legal teams ship automations without engineering support or an IT project cycle.
- Josef Q: Answers policy and compliance questions from the organisation's own policies, playbooks and templates rather than the open internet, with moderation and answer review controls.
- Contract Automation: Legal drafts a template once and teams such as sales generate contracts on demand from pre-approved clause language and conditional logic.
- Rapid Ingestion Engine: Extracts commercial terms from email threads, meeting notes and term sheets, maps them to structured fields, flags gaps and prompts users for what is missing.
- Business System Integrations: Connects with Microsoft Teams, Slack, Salesforce, SharePoint and document management systems so employees reach legal tools where they already work.
Best for: In-house legal and compliance teams at mid-size and large organisations overloaded by routine questions, NDAs and intake requests from sales, HR and procurement.
Josef converts legal knowledge into self-service tools the business can use around the clock, cutting inbound volume to the legal team. Legal keeps control of the templates, answers and approval logic behind every automated interaction.
Josef is a no-code legal workflow automation platform that lets legal and compliance teams build self-service Q&A, document generation and intake tools for the wider business.
