Preferences
Preferences controls how Judicio looks, what it emails you about, and what an export gives you by default. Most of it is staged and written by one button at the foot of the page. Two settings are the exception, and both are called out below.
The page is headed Preferences, subtitled Customize your experience, with four sections under it.
Open preferences (opens in a new tab)The preferences page
Four sections run down the page: Appearance, Notifications, Research and Export preferences. Save preferences and Discard changes sit at the foot, under the last section.


Appearance
The Appearance section is subtitled Choose how Judicio looks and formats local information.
| Control | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Theme | Top of the section | Three buttons: Dark mode, Light mode and System. The selected one is filled in |
| Language | Left of the row below | The interface language. 116 options, each shown in its own script |
| Timezone | Right of that row | Eight zones: Singapore, Tokyo, Sydney, London, New York, Los Angeles, Mumbai and Dubai, each with its offset |
System follows your operating system and flips with it. The theme applies the instant you pick it, before you save, and the top bar carries the same three choices so you can switch without coming here.
Language here sets the language of the app around you. The language an AI feature writes its answer in is set per run, on the composer for that feature.
Notifications
The Notifications section is subtitled Choose which product, account, and collaboration updates you receive. Ten toggles sit in five labelled groups.
| Group | Toggle | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| General | Email notifications | Receive notifications by email |
| Feature Alerts | Research complete | Notify me when research tasks are finished |
| File processing alerts | Notify me when files are processed or need attention | |
| Billing & Credits | Credit alerts | Notify me when available credits are running low |
| Billing reminders | Receive reminders before upcoming billing dates | |
| Payment alerts | Notify me about payment status and receipts | |
| Collaboration | Organization events | Notify me about team member and organization changes |
| Sharing alerts | Notify me when files or folders are shared with me | |
| Other | Security alerts | Notify me about security events and session changes |
| Product updates | Get updates about new features and improvements |
Flipping a toggle stages it. Nothing is sent or stopped until you save.
Research
The Research section holds one toggle, and it does not wait for the save button.
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Auto-detect jurisdictions | When a query names a different jurisdiction than your active one, detect it and ask before answering. Saves immediately. |
Leave it on and a question about another jurisdiction prompts you before the answer is written. Turn it off and every run stays in the jurisdiction shown in the top bar.
Export preferences
| Control | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Default export format | Top of the section | Three pills: PDF, DOCX and CSV |
| Include Citations | Below the divider | Keeps source citations in the exported file |
These are defaults for the export dialog, not a lock. Any export screen can be set differently for that one download, and a format that a feature does not offer simply does not appear there.
Saving
| Control | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Save preferences | Foot of the page | Writes appearance, notifications and export choices in one go. Disabled until something changes |
| Discard changes | Beside it | Restores every staged edit to its last saved state |
A successful save confirms with Preferences saved. The theme and Auto-detect jurisdictions are already written by then, so Discard changes does not roll those two back.
Where the neighbouring settings live
| Setting | Where it actually lives |
|---|---|
| The jurisdiction a run uses | The jurisdiction switcher in the top bar |
| Tone, length and answer language for a run | The composer for that feature |
| Your jurisdictions, roles and practice areas | Profile |
| Spending limits, and your plan's credit balance | The Billing page. See Credits explained |
The Credit alerts toggle under Notifications and the Credit alerts section on the Billing page are one preference with two switches. The Billing section, headed Email me when my credits are running low, writes the moment you flip it. The toggle here waits for Save preferences. Flipping one moves the other.
