Discovery depth. Pleadings precision. In a fraction of the hours.
Quillio gives Australian commercial litigators faster discovery review, stronger chronologies, and drafting-ready pleadings — grounded in Federal Court and state Supreme Court practice.
Quillio is built for Australian commercial disputes practice — Federal Court, Supreme Court, and specialist list work across contract, equity, corporate, competition, and professional negligence litigation. It is trained weekly on the Federal Court Rules, each state's Supreme Court Rules, current commercial list practice notes, and AU commercial authorities, so discovery, chronologies, and pleadings reflect the court you are actually in.
What gets in the way
The frustrations we hear from commercial litigators again and again.
Discovery has become unmanageable by hand
A mid-sized commercial matter now runs to hundreds of thousands of documents. First-pass discovery review by junior associates is slow, expensive, and error-prone — and clients are increasingly pushing back on the cost.
Chronologies carry the case
Every commercial dispute turns on the chronology. Getting it right — and finding the document that does not fit the other side's chronology — is often the difference between settlement and judgment. Building it by hand across thousands of documents takes weeks.
Pleadings drafting has to match the court
Federal Court pleadings conventions differ from NSW Supreme Court, which differ from Victorian Supreme Court, which differ from Queensland. A generic drafting tool is not aware of the conventions your judge expects.
Discovery obligations are harder than they used to be
Federal Court Practice Note GPN-TECH, proportionate discovery in state courts, managed document review obligations — the framework around discovery is more demanding every year, and the cost risk of getting it wrong is significant.

AU data sovereignty for privileged material
Privileged material, client strategy documents, and discovery material stay on Australian infrastructure — SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified. Consistent with AU legal professional privilege expectations.

Can Quillio handle the scale of modern discovery?
Yes. Quillio is built for commercial disputes volume — tens to hundreds of thousands of documents per matter. First-pass privilege and relevance review, issue coding, and hot document identification are core use cases. Your associates and counsel review and sign off before anything is produced.
How does Quillio handle legal professional privilege?
Quillio identifies likely-privileged material — legal advice privilege and litigation privilege — against current Australian authority, including Daniels Corporation and Esso Australia. Privilege claims are surfaced for review, not automatically asserted; the professional judgment on privilege stays with the responsible lawyer.
Does Quillio know the court rules I actually practise in?
Yes. Quillio is trained weekly on the Federal Court Rules 2011, each state Supreme Court Rules, relevant commercial list practice notes (Federal Court commercial and corporations lists, NSW commercial and tech lists, Victorian commercial court, Queensland commercial list), and current case management directions. Research and drafting reflect the court you are in.
Is AU infrastructure defensible for privileged material?
Yes. Quillio runs entirely on Australian infrastructure with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications. Privileged material, client strategy documents, and discovery material stay on Australian soil — consistent with law society AI guidance and the heightened confidentiality expectations privilege imposes.
Will this replace counsel or senior strategy?
No. Quillio accelerates the volume work — discovery, chronologies, first-draft pleadings, expert report review — so senior practitioners and counsel spend more of their time on strategy, witness preparation, and advocacy. The judgment stays with the advocate; the documentary volume gets easier.
What about interstate matters with different court conventions?
Quillio handles multi-jurisdictional commercial work — the same dispute may have Federal Court proceedings, state Supreme Court proceedings, and cross-vesting arguments. Quillio applies the rules and conventions of the specific court for each filing, rather than averaging across Australian courts.
