Alternative to JUNE: who fits when?
When JUNE fits
- JUNE fits if in-house legal teams or law firms handle high-volume proceedings (e.g. passenger-rights, claims or data-protection mass claims) with internal and external partners in separated workspaces.
- JUNE fits if intake processing (email, beA), AI-assisted classification and extraction and real-time reporting are the focus, while firm administration (billing, time recording) stays in another system.
- JUNE fits if a cloud platform on Azure with data centres in Germany and the stated certifications (incl. ISO 27001, SOC 2, C5, TISAX) is wanted.
- JUNE fits if AI assistants such as Copilot, Claude or ChatGPT are to access the case files via MCP.
When DEPLAW fits
- DEPLAW fits if processes should exist as an open BPMN 2.0 model that can be maintained and reviewed visually, and AI agents should run as logged workflow steps.
- DEPLAW fits if operation as SaaS in the Telekom cloud or self-hosted on Kubernetes is required.
- DEPLAW fits if case file, deadlines, RVG/GKG invoices, third-party funds, telephony and online payments should come together in one platform.
- DEPLAW fits projects with recurring, scalable case patterns (insurers, mass-litigation firms, debt collection, legal departments); it is not intended for solo practitioners without recurring case patterns.
