You'll meet the founders — world-renowned investigators from a London disputes practice. Bring the kind of case that eats a week.

On your terms

You set the budget and the clock


Every investigation runs to terms you set: a cost cap and a time limit, scoped to the matter the way you'd scope a junior's week. Millington works within both, unattended — set it running before court, return to a drafted case file. And the cap is an instalment, not a wall: continue the research or regenerate the report as the matter develops.

The method

Four moves you already make


A finding either carries its provenance into the room, or it stays out of the file.

Research

01 — PLAN

You brief it

Brief Millington on the matter. Set the budget and the clock. It drafts a research plan you can read before anything runs.

[RESEARCH PLAN — 14 LINES · BUDGET AND CLOCK SET]

02 — EXECUTE

It works the sources

Registries, sanctions data, your documents, and any premium source you're licensed to access — in parallel, not tab by tab.

[COMPANIES HOUSE · OFSI · DOCS — 312 QUERIES]

03 — VERIFY

Findings earn their place

Each finding is checked and bound to its evidence before it earns a place in the file.

[47 FINDINGS — VERIFIED · 6 SET ASIDE]

research stays open — continue, rework, or expand it whenever the matter moves

Reporting

04 — REPORT

The file holds

An evidence-backed case file, provenance intact, ready to hand to a client — regenerate the report as the matter develops.

[CASE FILE — 28 PP. · CITED THROUGHOUT]

The fees

Two fees, and the tokens are yours


You already pay for the cloud, the databases, and the models. Millington's fees are for the instrument — one charge at deployment, one flat rate for the seats. And because every investigation carries a budget cap and a clock, you'll know the ceiling before anything runs.

01 — DEPLOYMENT

Deployment — Paid once

Deployment puts Millington inside your Azure or AWS tenant and connects the sources you hold. One fee, then only the seats. WAIVED — FOUNDING FIRMS

02 — SEATS

Seats — Flat, monthly

One rate per seat, for everyone you give access to. Support, updates, and the upkeep of your deployment are included — there is no higher tier to buy.

03 — TOKENS

Tokens — Never ours

Millington runs on your keys, in your tenant, so model spend goes straight to your provider at their prices. There is nothing for us to mark up. The spend sits on your own bill, metered investigation by investigation — attributable to the matter, at cost.

Not on the schedule

  • a markup on the tokens
  • a higher tier to unlock
  • a charge per matter or per report
  • a meter that starts before your cap is set
built-in cost controls, with the cap and the clock set by whoever instructs the investigation — or fixed by your administrators. nothing runs until both are set
