Dutch Supreme Court Partners with Moonlit
The Dutch Supreme Court partners with Moonlit, leveraging its platform for unprecedented EU-wide legal research and fostering greater harmonization of European law, while respecting judicial independence by opting for human-driven decision-making.

We are thrilled to announce that the Dutch Supreme Court has chosen Moonlit as its platform for international legal research. This partnership marks a historic step forward in how courts across Europe can leverage technology to deepen their understanding of EU-wide case law and legislation.

For the first time in history, the Dutch Supreme Court can efficiently explore how EU legislation is interpreted and applied in other member states. This capability is a game-changer, providing the Court with unprecedented insight into the harmonization of EU law across borders.

Moonlit will serve as a dedicated tool for cross-border legal research, empowering the Court with streamlined access to an extensive database of case law and legislation spanning the entire EU. By embracing this resource, the Dutch Supreme Court takes a leadership role in fostering a more interconnected and harmonized European legal framework.

Respecting Judicial Independence

In its commitment to impartiality and independence, the Court has opted to disable Moonlit’s AI functionalities. This decision ensures that all judgments remain purely human-driven, upholding the integrity of the judicial process.

At Moonlit, we deeply respect and fully support this choice. Our mission has always been to enhance legal professionals’ capabilities without compromising their autonomy. The Dutch Supreme Court’s stance exemplifies the ethical use of technology in the judicial sphere, and we are proud to be part of this journey.

A Step Toward Harmonized EU Legislation

This collaboration reflects a broader movement toward the harmonization of EU law. As the legal systems of member states increasingly align, tools like Moonlit become indispensable for fostering collaboration and understanding across borders.

The partnership underscores the growing recognition of the importance of shared legal knowledge in shaping a united Europe. By equipping the judiciary with innovative tools, we help pave the way for a more cohesive and effective application of EU legislation.

Looking Ahead

As we embark on this journey with the Dutch Supreme Court, we remain committed to supporting legal professionals in their pursuit of justice, transparency, and collaboration. This partnership reaffirms our belief in the power of technology to bridge gaps and create a stronger, more connected legal community.

We look forward to seeing how Moonlit will continue to empower courts, lawyers, and policymakers across Europe to embrace the future of law.
