Jusbrasil API: what you can do and how to use it with AI agents
Jusbrasil is a Brazilian legal data company. It offers companies and law firms data solutions such as case tracking, publications and searches, with access under a commercial contract. There is no widely documented, self-service open API. Integration is usually negotiated as a corporate solution. Legal departments, law firms and credit and compliance teams use it, in Brazilian courts.

Monitoring of updates on cases of interest to the company.
Publications and gazettes

Party search

What an iTeam agent does with the Jusbrasil API
Triage of new case updates
The legal agent reads the day's updates, separates the ones with deadlines and notifies the lawyer in charge in Teams.
Publication summaries
Each captured publication becomes a short summary of what changes in the case and the suggested next step.
Supplier due diligence
Before a supplier is approved, the agent finds cases linked to its CNPJ (the Brazilian company tax ID) and drafts a preliminary opinion for legal to review.
Case law research for a draft
The agent searches decisions on the topic and delivers an annotated list for the lawyer to use in the filing.

Questions about the Jusbrasil API
Is the Jusbrasil API free?
Generally no. Data access for integration is usually part of corporate plans contracted with Jusbrasil.
Do I need to write code to use the Jusbrasil API with iTeam?
Not necessarily. Once access is contracted, the iTeam deployment team sets up the integration from the documentation Jusbrasil provides.
Does the agent replace deadline control?
No. It speeds up triage and alerts the right people, but deadline control remains the lawyer's responsibility.
