Automate immigration case prep, without crossing legal boundaries.
Visagen is a preparation and validation layer that turns unstructured documents into draft forms, checklists, and evidence packs for professional review — reducing admin-heavy work while preserving judgement and accountability.
Visagen is designed to support regulated professionals: no legal advice, no eligibility decisions, and no submissions. Final review, sign-off, and submission remain with the caseworker/supervisor. (Positioning aligned to your validation pack and regulatory background.)
Outcome-focused
Built for UK immigration practice realities: fixed-fee pressure, regulatory/audit risk, sensitive data, and supervision quality.
Immigration case preparation is complex, manual, and high-stakes.
Most time and cost comes from administrative preparation: collecting documents, extracting information, checking consistency, assembling evidence, and rework when issues are found late.
Applicants
Overwhelming paperwork, repetitive data entry, high error risk.
Law firms
Admin-heavy workflows under fixed-fee pressure; scaling often means hiring more people.
Employers & universities
Time-consuming processes, compliance risk, and peak-season bottlenecks.
Why “generic AI tools” don’t fit regulated work
No auditability, no case-level controls, and unclear boundaries that can blur accountability.
Where risk concentrates today
Fragmented channels + manual re-entry means inconsistencies are often discovered late, under deadline pressure.
Same actors. Same accountability. Better infrastructure.
Visagen introduces structure and validation at the start of preparation, then generates drafts for humans to review and approve.
Replace scattered email/portal/message uploads with one case context.
Identify gaps and internal inconsistencies early — before the deadline crunch.
Draft materials are prepared for review, not submission.
Human judgement stays central; Visagen strengthens preparation and auditability.
Four-layer architecture designed for repeatability and auditability.
The core system focuses on defensible automation: document handling, extraction, schema-based rules, and pack generation.
Document processing
OCR, auto-splitting, classification, and quality checks.
AI extract + reasoning
Identity extraction, history parsing, cross-checking, and gap detection.
Visa logic engine
Schema-based rules, dynamic forms, multi-route scalability, compliance triggers.
Pack generator
Draft forms, cover letters, checklists, and evidence organisation for review.
Built to innovate — without creating compliance risk.
Visagen is designed to operate cleanly within regulated environments, with explicit boundaries and oversight.

Clear boundaries
AI supports preparation tasks; it does not provide advice, determine eligibility, or make decisions.
Designed for audit readiness
Human approval, explainable outputs, and a workflow designed for oversight and defensibility.
Data protection, cybersecurity, and trust
Designed with UK GDPR / DPA 2018 principles in mind: case-level data isolation, role-based access, and audit logging. Client data is not used to train models and is processed only for the relevant matter. Controls align with UK standards such as Cyber Essentials and ISO 27001 principles (least privilege, secure handling, separated environments).
Start with high-volume, document-heavy routes.
Initial focus: UK immigration law firms. Early routes prioritise faster time-to-value and lower risk while proving measurable preparation-time reduction.
Citizenship & settlement
Document repetition, clear preparation patterns, strong fit for structured validation.
Skilled Worker visas
Repeatable workflows where admin overhead can be reduced with early validation.
Student visas (later)
Expand once pilots prove outcomes, supervision flow, and operational safety.
What we validate in pilots
Which application types deliver fastest value, where operational pain is greatest, and what time reduction drives adoption.
What “success” looks like
Reduced rework, fewer last-minute escalations, improved supervision quality, and a clearer audit trail.
Want to run a low-risk pilot with your team?
We’ll map one workflow, agree success metrics (time saved + rework reduction), and validate fit with your supervision and compliance requirements.
