Faculti Lawyers adds corporate data firm InfoTrack to its in-house AI platform, pointing to a new model for how firms can own their AI future.

While much of the legal industry is still navigating how to adopt AI, measure its value, and make it work in practice, Faculti Lawyers has taken a different path, building its own.

Fai, Faculti's in-house developed agentic AI platform, is now live across approximately 1,000 staff at Faculti and major Australian law firm Thomsons. Rather than deploying an off-the-shelf solution, the firm made a deliberate decision to build capability internally, shaping AI around the way legal work is actually done, rather than asking lawyers to adapt to generic tools.

The latest step in that build is the integration of InfoTrack's Model Context Protocol (MCP) layer, giving Fai direct access to verified, government-sourced data from Australian registries, ASIC, identity verification frameworks and regulated conveyancing processes, all within the AI workflows lawyers already use.

What each party brings

AI in legal is only as good as the data it can access. 

InfoTrack supplies verified data: connections to Australian government registries, ASIC, identity verification frameworks, financial institutions and regulated conveyancing processes. Through InfoTrack.ai's Model Context Protocol, that trusted information can now flow directly into Fai's workflows - subject to firm permissions and approval controls.

Fai provides the workflow layer. Built in-house for high-volume, high-stakes professional work, it supports research, drafting, review, triage and agentic workflows as part of the way work runs across the organisation. The result is AI as a core part of the firm’s operating capability.

Why it matters

Access to AI is no longer a differentiator on its own. What matters now is whether AI can be embedded into a firm's own operating model, with the right data, governance and professional standards built in. Firms that can do this in-house move faster, maintain stronger quality controls and deliver better client outcomes. This integration is a practical example of that shift.

"Integrating InfoTrack into Fai means we bring trusted external data into the workflows our teams already use, within an environment we control and govern ourselves," said Ben Lehman, Chief Innovation Officer at Faculti. "That makes adoption easier, improves confidence in the output and helps us realise stronger returns from AI in day-to-day legal work."

"Verified data is essential if AI is to be used confidently in legal workflows," said Ajay Kumar, Head of AI Solutions at InfoTrack. "By connecting InfoTrack.ai with Fai, trusted information can be brought into the same environment where legal work is being progressed, with the controls, approvals and auditability professional practice requires."

Faculti Lawyers is a finalist in the 2026 Australian Law Awards for Innovator of the Year. The awards will be announced on July 30.
