About
Wakilii is an AI legal research agent for Ugandan law. It answers questions in plain language and grounds every statement in a primary source you can open and check — never an answer without its authority.
Good legal work rests on good sources. Yet in Uganda the law is scattered across registries, gazettes, and judgments that are difficult to search and harder still to cite with confidence. Important authorities sit in PDFs and physical volumes; consolidations lag behind amendments; and the link between a proposition and the text that supports it is often lost.
Wakilii exists to close that gap. We bring the precedent, the statute, and the source into one place, and we make the reasoning auditable — so that every answer can be traced back to the words of the law.
Wakilii works the way a careful junior associate would: it plans the research, reads the relevant authorities, drafts an answer, and checks each citation before showing it to you.
Wakilii draws on a structured corpus of Ugandan legal materials, rebuilt as new judgments and instruments are published. Every AskWakilii answer states the date of the corpus it was drawn from, so you can see for yourself how current it is.
These counts come from the deployed corpus index at request time; a dash means that index was not visible to the web process. They are coverage counts, not claims that every Ugandan legal document ever published is present.
Judgment and Gazette pages reproduce public-domain Government of Uganda works. Consolidated legislation is sourced through ULII and Laws.Africa, with source attribution on the document page. Wakilii’s summaries, explanations, citator classifications and analytics are separate editorial or computational layers and are labelled as such.
The tracked statutory-expression comparison used by the section pilot was last retrieved on 2026-08-04. A consolidation date is not proof that no later Gazette amendment exists. See the methodology and citator limits, the public corrections register, and the recent-judgments feed.
Nothing is asserted without a source. If Wakilii cannot find authority for a point, it tells you so rather than guessing.
The research trace is visible. You can see which issues were identified and which authorities were consulted, so the answer is something you can interrogate — not a black box.
Wakilii is a research tool, not a substitute for professional judgment. Every citation links back to its source precisely so that you can confirm it before it goes into a brief, an opinion, or a filing.
Your questions are yours. We handle account and query data carefully and describe exactly how in our Privacy Policy.
Wakilii is built for the people who work with Ugandan law every day — litigators preparing submissions, in-house counsel advising the business, and researchers, academics, and students who need to find and read primary authority quickly and cite it accurately.
Wakilii is free during early access. Anyone can create an account. No invite code or payment card is required. Sign up free, or sign in if you already have an account.
Wakilii provides legal research assistance, not legal advice, and does not create a lawyer–client relationship. AI-generated output can contain errors; always read and verify the cited authorities before relying on them. Your use of Wakilii is governed by our Terms of Use.
