The Indian judiciary launched an Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered chatbot named 'Su Sahay' in May 2026 to make judicial services easier to access for citizens and litigants. A chatbot is a computer program that can answer questions and guide users through a process using simple conversation.

Su Sahay was developed by the National Informatics Centre (NIC) in collaboration with the Supreme Court Registry. It was introduced along with the 'One Case One Data' initiative, which aims to keep a single, consistent set of data for each case across the system.

The main purpose of Su Sahay is to provide front-end assistance — it guides users through judicial procedures, gives access to live court updates, and shares official legal information. The wider goal is to modernise the judicial system through digital integration, reduce administrative barriers, and make legal services more transparent and accessible across India.
