The problem

Hundreds of pages. Dozens of parties. Months of tracked changes. And someone has to prove every word.

Capital markets still run on email and redlines, with verification left as a tick-and-tie marathon at the end. A plausible draft you can’t defend is worse than no draft at all.

One platform, kick-off to closing

Data room. Diligence. Drafting. Deal management.

Most deals juggle a data room, a diligence tracker, a drafting tool and a spreadsheet timetable. Praedex is all four, working from the same verified record.

DiligenceBuilt

Reads every document, surfaces the legal issues, risks and gaps, and flags where documents disagree, including where a negative confirmation is needed.

Phases, readiness and sign-off gates from kick-off to closing, with a full audit trail. People decide what is filed.

For legal AI platforms and disclosure software

Add capital markets functionality to your existing platform.

General-purpose legal AI isn’t built for multi-party, verified drafting of regulated disclosure. Praedex is. The engine is independent of deal type, jurisdiction and model, and every output carries its own evidence trail, so it fits inside the platform your capital markets clients already use.

It keeps working when you stop.

A deal with Praedex in the room. “Next” marks features in the post-trial build.

  1. PraedexNext

    The data room was refreshed overnight. 41 documents in, 6 retired. Three statements in Risk Factors are no longer supported by the new FY25 management accounts. I’ve redrafted them for your review.

    Do our peers say anything about supplier concentration?

  3. PraedexBuilt

    Four of your five peers do. You don’t. Your top supplier is 23% of cost of sales (Supply Agreement, cl. 4.2). I recommend a risk factor.

Security by design

Built for inside information.

A prospectus holds a company’s most price-sensitive facts before the market sees them. Praedex was designed for that from day one: customer-held encryption keys, so not even Praedex can read your workspace; role-based access for every party; a full audit trail; and irrevocable deletion when the deal closes. ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type I audits are under way.

ISO 27001:2022 · certification audit under waySOC 2 Type I · audit under way

Praedex runs a formal information security management system built to ISO 27001:2022 and the SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria. An independent internal audit was completed in October 2026. The external ISO 27001 certification audit is under way, with Stage 1 held in November 2026, and our SOC 2 Type I audit takes place in mid-November 2026. We are happy to share our policies and security documentation under NDA.

FAQ

Good questions.

Who works in Praedex?

Everyone on the deal. Praedex is a multi-user cloud platform: the company, issuer’s counsel, underwriters’ counsel, the banks and the auditors each have their own role-based access to the same live document, with comments, questions and approvals in one place and a full audit trail.

Do we still need a separate data room and deal tracker?

No. Praedex has its own secure data room, runs due diligence on what is in it, and manages the project through phases, readiness and sign-off gates. A full timetable with workstreams, owners and deadlines is in the next build, and connections to third-party data rooms are on the roadmap.

Does Praedex replace a lawyer’s judgment?

No. Praedex drafts, researches and verifies. The company and its advisers decide what is disclosed, and nothing moves past a phase gate without a person signing it off.

Are you ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certified?

Both audits are under way. Our information security management system is built to ISO 27001:2022 and the SOC 2 criteria. An independent internal audit was completed in October 2026. The external ISO 27001 certification audit began with Stage 1 in November 2026, and our SOC 2 Type I audit takes place in mid-November 2026. We can share our policies and security documentation under NDA, and we will update this page when certification is confirmed.

Can Praedex work inside our existing platform?

Yes. The engine is independent of deal type, jurisdiction and model, and its evidence trail is stored as data. We are talking to legal technology and AI companies about integration and partnership.
