Bespoke CLM, Practice Management & AI Agents
DocNinja is a South African legal-and-software practice that builds bespoke contract lifecycle management (CLM) systems, practice management systems and AI agents, owned outright by the client rather than sold as SaaS. It is led by an admitted attorney and models software on how each business actually works. It is best for enterprises, law firms and accounting and audit firms in Southern Africa that have outgrown off-the-shelf tools.

Claim Your ProfileOverview
DocNinja works in three lines. Its contract lifecycle management systems cover intake, creation, signing and management for enterprise clients, built around each company's own approval chains and obligations. Its practice management systems are custom operating systems for law, accounting and audit firms, bringing matters, compliance, documents, financials and workflows together; the platform that runs MJ Kotze Inc is its flagship reference build. Its AI agents handle drafting, review, research over a client's own data, intake and automation, grounded in the client's documents. The pitch is that generic platforms cover about seventy per cent of the work, and DocNinja builds for the rest: branching approvals, multi-year obligations and rules that live in people's heads. Templates, clause libraries, matter types and compliance rules use the firm's own language, and the client owns the IP. DocNinja designs, builds, integrates and supports, and is not a reseller. Projects run in four fixed-scope, fixed-price phases: Discover (weeks 1 to 3), Design (weeks 4 to 7), Build (weeks 8 to 20) and ongoing Evolve support. It has been building since 2019 from Pretoria under founder Martin Kotze.
