LawVu

LawVu is a New Zealand-founded legal technology company whose LegalOS is a connected workspace for corporate in-house legal teams, bringing matter management, contract lifecycle management, legal request intake, spend management and e-billing, document management, reporting and embedded AI into a single platform.

It also ships a first-party MCP server for connecting AI assistants to the LegalOS, a Microsoft Power Platform connector, and a Workato connector. LawVu is backed by Insight Partners.

LawVu publishes 7 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Contracts API, Fields API, Files API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include Company, Legal, Legal Tech, Legal Operations, and Contract Lifecycle Management.

Kin Score

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-10-31 · rubric v0.25.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
  • Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
  • A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
  • Rate-Limit Signaling +7 pts — OpenAPI responses document X-RateLimit-* / RateLimit headers (verified), else a rate_limits artifact or RateLimits link (documented)
  • Documented Reversibility +6 pts — a reversal operation in the contract, graded up when a window is documented too
  • Agentic Commerce Well-Known Document +5 pts — a parsing /.well-known/ucp.json or acp.json declaring a version and at least one service — `self` when its endpoints are on the provider's own domain, `platform` when they are on a vendor's
  • Protected Resource Metadata +5 pts — a served /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource carrying `resource` (documented), and naming its authorization_servers (verified)

Kin Score — facets with the most composite points still available (weight × headroom):
Each check links to what satisfies it. Publish the artifact, or tell us where it already lives, and the score moves on the next scoring run.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from the provider profile at artifacts.apis.io/lawvu/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/lawvu to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.

Markets this provider is in provisional

The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
