How A 16-Year-Old Is Building An Emergency & Legal AI To Help Solve India’s 53 Million Pending Cases

In this compelling episode of Business Today’s podcast with Sakshi Batra, 16-year-old AI prodigy Raul John reveals the groundbreaking legal and emergency-response tool he is building—Rescue AI. Set for release around the New Year, this flagship law-based system aims to transform how India handles emergencies, legal research, and contract analysis. Raul explains how Rescue AI guides citizens during accidents or crises, provides accurate legal steps, connects users to lawyers when needed, and even helps lawyers by analysing previous cases, identifying relevant articles, and drafting legal documents. With features such as contract-risk analysis and a dedicated Guardian Mode, the tool is designed to ease the burden on India’s heavily overloaded judicial system, where over 53 million cases remain unresolved. Raul emphasises that Rescue AI is not here to replace lawyers but to support them and make justice more accessible, faster, and safer for everyone. Tune in to hear how this young innovator is collaborating with government partners and shaping the future of legal tech in India.
