Have a legal problem?We will organise it for you.

Ratio is the UK's constitutional training ground for law students and legal professionals. It combines structured advocacy training, live video mooting, legal research, moot organisation, competitive tournaments, a peer-reviewed law book, democratic governance through Parliament and Tribunal, and a national inter-university league — all in one platform, built for accessible advocacy practice.

Yes. The core platform is free forever for students. This includes live video mooting, unlimited moot organisation, the Legal Research Engine, Parliament voting rights, role claiming, social features, Chamber membership, and 3 Expert Judge sessions per month. Premium tiers unlock unlimited sessions, the Case Brief Generator, Argument Builder, tournament creation, advanced analytics, exportable portfolios, and SQE2 preparation tools. Professional plans start at £14.99/month for practising lawyers and legal professionals.

Ratio is open to the entire UK legal community. Law students at any UK university — including LLB, GDL, LPC, BPC, and LLM programmes — can join for free. Legal professionals including barristers, solicitors, solicitor advocates, pupillage applicants, paralegals, and legal executives can join on a Professional plan. During onboarding you select whether you are a student or professional, and the platform tailors your experience accordingly.

Sessions take place in virtual courtrooms with live video and audio. You join a pre-session lobby, enter through a formal courtroom entrance, and then present your submissions with timed speaking slots. Judges preside, leading and junior counsel take turns, and clerks manage procedure. After the session, you rate your opponent and receive detailed feedback on your performance.

The AI Expert Judge simulates a High Court judge hearing oral submissions. You present your argument, and the AI judge intervenes with questions, challenges your reasoning, and tests your knowledge of authorities. After each session, you receive a detailed scorecard across 7 dimensions: argument structure, use of authorities, oral delivery, judicial handling, court manner, persuasiveness, and time management.

The Legal Simulation lets you describe a legal dispute and receive a structured analysis of your position. Walk through real court procedures, evaluate evidence, generate legal documents, and chat with a legal companion — covering Small Claims, Employment Tribunal, Landlord and Tenant, Contract Dispute, and Debt Recovery under England and Wales law. Everything is generated by AI for educational purposes only.

No. The Legal Simulation is an educational tool that helps you understand legal concepts and procedures. It does not constitute legal advice and does not create a solicitor-client relationship. For professional legal advice, consult a qualified solicitor.

The Research Engine lets you search every UK statute and court judgment in one place. It draws from official sources including legislation.gov.uk and the National Archives Find Case Law service. Results include OSCOLA-formatted citations, and you can filter by court hierarchy, year range, judge, or party name.

Parliament is the democratic governance system of Ratio. Any verified Advocate can propose motions, debate policy changes, and vote. Standing orders ensure fair procedure. The Tribunal handles disputes through a structured judicial process modelled on real court procedure: file a case, serve notice, exchange submissions, attend a hearing, and receive a binding judgment from elected judicial Advocates.

Chambers are the four houses of Ratio, modelled on the historic Inns of Court: Gray's, Lincoln's, Inner, and Middle. When you join, you select a Chamber. Your Chamber is your team for national rankings, inter-university competition, and tournaments. Every moot you complete and every score you earn contributes to your Chamber's standing.

Mooting societies and Advocates can create structured tournaments with single elimination or round-robin formats. Participants are matched, results are tracked through live brackets, and winners advance through rounds. Inter-university tournaments let Chambers compete against law schools across the country, with all results feeding into the national league table.

Your data is yours. We store only what is necessary to operate the platform: your profile information, session records, and scores. We do not sell personal data to third parties. Judge sessions are processed securely and are not used to train external models. You can export or delete your data at any time. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.

RATIO offers three levels of verified advocacy certificates — Foundation, Intermediate, and Advanced — earned by completing structured requirements including AI Judge sessions, group moots, and scoring thresholds across 7 dimensions of advocacy. Each certificate includes a skills breakdown, is signed by the Founder, and comes with a unique QR code for instant verification by employers. Certificates are included free for all subscribers, or available as one-time purchases for free-tier users.

The RATIO Ambassador Programme invites moot society leaders, law society members, and advocacy enthusiasts at UK universities to represent RATIO at their campus. Ambassadors receive free Premium+ access, all certificates included, a personalised letter of recommendation, and are featured on the RATIO website. Applications are reviewed personally by the Founder. Visit the Ambassadors page to apply.
