Seeking a European R&D partner for Casuist

Kulular Bilişim Teknolojileri Limited Şirketi is forming a consortium for Eurostars Call 12. We are looking for a research organisation, university law faculty or legal-data specialist.

The file is called Casuist. The problem it attacks is narrow and measurable: legal language models produce fluent answers, but whether the citations in those answers actually rest on a controlling source cannot be reliably shown. The real danger is not the obvious fabrication; it is the plausible citation to a decision that genuinely exists but is not controlling on the point. That is the error a busy practitioner is least likely to catch.

Casuist is built on exactly that. Every generated proposition is bound to a specific span of the source it rests on, and a statement without adequate support is flagged rather than completed. The system does not decide; it makes the answer auditable. The final judgment stays with the professional.

We want to be explicit about the collaboration model. We do not see the partner as a data supplier: leadership of the legal requirements, benchmark corpus construction and independent validation work packages sits with the partner. Foreground IP in the core platform software remains with Kulular Teknoloji, while the evaluation methodology, the benchmark dataset and the resulting publications are designed as joint property. We negotiate this boundary before drafting begins.

Türkiye is a full Eurostars member state; national funding is administered by TÜBİTAK under the 1709 programme. Call 12 opens for submission on 17 December 2026 and closes on 4 March 2027 at 14:00 Brussels time. Some countries have no allocated budget for this cut-off, so we ask interested organisations to confirm their own national funding status early.

Interested organisations can write to us with a one-page capability note. The detail of the file and the partner profile we are looking for are on the project page.
