In a context where more than 60% of lawyers' time is spent reviewing sources, the arrival of new technologies is beginning to redefine professional practice in Chile. In this line, the company Trifolia launched a free version of its artificial intelligence platform specialized in Chilean law, marking a milestone in access to advanced legal tools. The incorporation of artificial intelligence in the legal field has ceased to be a future trend and has become a concrete transformation.
With this launch, Trifolia opens access to a system that was previously mainly available to large firms, challenging a model historically based on restricted access to quality information. The platform allows lawyers, students, and other users to make inquiries that integrate jurisprudence, legislation, and doctrine, providing structured answers with verifiable backing. This change not only reduces research times but also impacts the way legal arguments and strategies are constructed.
Unlike other solutions that significantly limit their free versions, Trifolia's proposal incorporates key functionalities for daily practice. Among them are integrated searches across various sources of Chilean law, access to verifiable citations, and direct links to official documents. The system allows for up to two inquiries per day, in addition to a conversation history, enabling users to address real issues and validate legal hypotheses quickly.
In practice, tasks that previously could take hours—or even days—can now be resolved in minutes while maintaining professional standards. This advancement also highlights a gap within the legal sector. While other industries have adopted automated processes, a significant part of legal practice in Chile continues to rely on manual and fragmented methods, affecting both efficiency and the quality of work.

The initiative has significant implications in terms of competition. By reducing economic barriers, it allows independent lawyers, professionals from regions, and public sector actors to access advanced tools, raising the overall standard of the legal system. A transition that is already happening The adoption of artificial intelligence is beginning to emerge as a necessity rather than a competitive advantage.
Professionals who integrate these tools can focus on strategic analysis and decision-making, delegating repetitive tasks to technology. Far from being a hypothetical scenario, this transition is already underway. According to data from the company itself, more than a thousand lawyers currently use the platform, reflecting a gradual change in the way law is practiced in Chile.
In an environment where speed, precision, and depth of analysis are increasingly relevant, the integration of artificial intelligence could become a decisive factor for the future of the profession.
