The student plan

Students and legal trainees are covered by two different offers. This article covers the student plan. If you are a legal trainee, see the article on the trainee discount instead.

Who is eligible?

Law students with a valid academic email address that can be verified through SWITCH edu-ID.

How much does it cost?

The student plan costs CHF 29 per month.

How do I subscribe?

You can subscribe directly without contacting the team first. Follow these steps:

1. Choose the Student plan
2. Validate your academic email address through SWITCH edu-ID
3. Once verification succeeds, your student status is confirmed and your plan is active

What is SWITCH edu-ID?

It is the digital identity used by Swiss universities and higher education institutions. Silex uses it to confirm that you really are enrolled, which is why no document needs to be sent to anyone and the whole process is immediate.

My academic email is not recognised.

Check that you are using the email address issued by your institution and that your SWITCH edu-ID account is linked to it. If verification still fails, contact support@silex.legal with your institution name and the address you are trying to use.

What does the student plan include?

• Access to Silex Chat, capped at 120 questions per month

• 5 GB of personal Silo storage

• No Toolkit agents and no credits

What happens when I finish my studies?

The rate applies for as long as your student status does. When your studies end, you will move to a standard plan.

I am a trainee, not a student. Does this apply to me?

No — legal trainees have their own offer, a 50% discount on the annual Solo subscription. See the dedicated article.
