The law shouldn't be locked in a PDF
Statutes shape how organisations operate, yet they're usually published as scanned documents that are hard to read, harder to search, and impossible to build on. Nyaykosh turns each Act into something you can actually use: a clean read, a PDF copy, structured data, and a live compliance tool.
We believe transparent, machine-readable law is the foundation of trust between citizens, businesses and the state.

Every law, the way you need it
Readable text
Provisions are presented as a navigable outline with plain-language summaries and the specific rules each section imposes — so you grasp obligations without wading through legalese.
The official Gazette copy where available, otherwise a generated copy for reference. A generated copy is always labelled as generated.
Structured XML
Akoma Ntoso / LegalDocML markup with sections, sub-clauses and metadata, so legal-tech systems can parse and cross-reference law reliably.
Consumable API
JSON endpoints expose provisions, rules and penalty schedules. Read access is open; build dashboards, chatbots and compliance tools on top.
Built for everyone the law touches
Citizens & students
Understand your rights and obligations in plain language, with the official text one click away.
Compliance & legal teams
Map obligations to provisions, track penalty exposure, and evidence due diligence with the simulator.
Developers & legal-tech
Pull structured law into your products via XML and REST APIs instead of scraping PDFs.
How a law is published here
The content team uploads the Gazette PDF of an Act. An AI pipeline turns it into a structured draft: sections, obligations and penalties, each linked to the text it was read from. The AI only creates a draft; it never approves or publishes. The draft is reviewed internally, checked item by item by a validating lawyer against the source PDF and e-signed, approved by the competent authority and then published. Only a published version appears on this site.
Acts that were on the platform before this process are shown as “Legacy – pending validation” until they go through it.
Note: this platform is for informational purposes and does not constitute legal advice. Always verify against the official Gazette and consult a qualified professional for specific matters.
