Judicio
Inspiration
The inspiration for Judicio came from a growing crisis facing Indian small businesses and creators.
Many Indian entrepreneurs have recently faced devastating international copyright notices—sometimes demanding hundreds of euros for a single unknowingly misused image—and heavy fines from the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI) for making unverifiable marketing claims.
We realized that while design tools have become incredibly accessible, legal protection has not.
Our goal was to build a legal safety net directly where the creative process happens: inside Adobe Express.
What It Does
Judicio is an AI-powered legal and compliance assistant integrated as an Adobe Express Add-on.
It provides three core protective layers:
1. Text Analysis
- Detects unverifiable claims
- Identifies missing regulatory disclaimers
- Flags potential trademark misuse
- Suggests safer, compliant alternatives with one-click replacement
2. Image Analysis
- Uses visual similarity matching
- Detects potential trademark and copyright violations
- Matches designs against a database of protected logos
3. Tamper-Evident Audit Trail
- Automatically logs every compliance-related action
- Secured using SHA-256 hashing
- Creates a legally verifiable record of due diligence
How We Built It
We built Judicio using a modern and scalable technology stack:
Frontend
- React 18 with TypeScript
- Integrated into the Adobe Express Document Sandbox
- Securely extracts text and image assets from designs
Backend
- Node.js with Express
- Orchestrates AI reasoning and compliance workflows
AI & Search
- OpenAI for legal reasoning and text compliance analysis
- CLIP-ViT embeddings for image understanding
- Pinecone for high-performance vector similarity search
Integrity Layer
- Custom hashing utility for audit log immutability
Each audit log entry is secured using the following hash:
