Do the work of a firm three times your size.
Keep the team you have.

Lex Sentinel builds AI systems for services businesses: law, accountancy, recruitment, customer service. Our systems take on the reading, matching, checking and chasing, so your people spend their day on the work clients pay for.

What we believe

Every services firm carries the same hidden payroll: qualified people doing work that doesn't need them. Reading the file. Chasing the document. Re-keying the statement. We build systems that take that work off the desk the day they go live, and hand back the one thing you can't buy more of: your best people's time.

Ventures

Each one a company. Each one built around a bottleneck.

01 Olimey AML and Source of Wealth checks that take minutes instead of hours. Conveyancers complete faster, files stop queuing on one desk, and the firm takes on more matters with the team it has. Legal
Live
02 Aakam A ranked, recruiter-checked shortlist in days rather than weeks. Open roles stop draining the team covering them, and the strongest candidates stop accepting elsewhere. Recruitment
Live
03 Inaiva An AI voice agent that answers and handles a law firm’s inbound calls, then turns every conversation into sales intelligence. No enquiry rings out, and more of them become clients. Conveyancing first; UK legal practices next. Legal

What partnering gets you

More work done. Paid sooner. No new hires.

We ran a practice before we built software, so we build for the P&L, not the demo. Three things change the day a Lex Sentinel system goes live at your firm.

  1. 01

    Your team handles more, with the people you already have.

    The gathering, reading and reconciling is done before the file reaches anyone. Your people open work that is ready to decide on, and the volume rises without the payroll following it.

  2. 02

    Work gets finished faster, so you get paid faster.

    A check in minutes, a shortlist in days. Completions, placements and resolutions land earlier, clients notice, and you can bill while the work is still fresh.

  3. 03

    A person still makes every final call, and the record shows it.

    Everything the system produces comes with the evidence behind it, and a named person at your firm approves it. You get the speed of automation, and your regulator, insurer and clients get the reassurance that a professional is still in charge.

Where we build

Law / Accountancy / Recruitment / Customer service / Property / Financial services / Consulting / and any business where qualified people are paid to think, and spend the day preparing instead.

People

Founded by three solicitors who did the work by hand.

More than sixty years of law between them, and a shared frustration: every tool they bought made collecting faster and left the thinking exactly where it was. Lex Sentinel is the company they built to fix that in their own profession, and now in yours.

"Collecting the information was hard. Connecting the evidence was harder. Getting everyone to do it properly, every time, was exhausting."
