Litera introduces legal tech enhancements with foundation platform update

Litera unveils cutting-edge updates to its Foundation Platform, integrating AI-powered tools into Outlook, enhancing legal workflow efficiency.

Litera, a pioneer in legal technology solutions, has recently rolled out advanced enhancements for its Foundation Platform, aimed at boosting firm intelligence via a new Outlook interface. This move allows legal professionals, including partners and business services, to conveniently access consolidated client, matter, contact, and firm experience data.

Part of the Litera One suite, these upgrades offer a seamless AI integration with Microsoft 365. The platform combines crucial CRM data with robust insights from its experience management capabilities to offer legal experts a comprehensive view of their firm’s operations, right from their primary workspace. In doing so, Litera One transforms the way firm intelligence is utilised in the legal sector.

Avaneesh Marwaha, CEO of Litera, comments, "With the latest wave of innovations across our Foundation Platform and the introduction of Lito, Litera is once again redefining what’s possible for legal technology. By empowering legal professionals with unified, AI-driven tools seamless embedded in their daily workflows, we're not only accelerating productivity but also setting a new standard for firm intelligence."

The new Outlook feature is a game-changer, providing an immediate response to queries like, "What is our experience with this type of matter?". Tasks that previously required hours can now be accomplished in seconds, directly accessible within Outlook.

Alongside these enhancements, Litera introduced Lito—an AI legal agent aptly embedded into Litera One. Litera showcased this innovation on July 23. With Lito, firms can retrieve firm experience data using natural language, facilitating a smooth search across platforms. Whether it's for examining a firm’s M&A experience related to gaming assets or any other query, Lito provides swift, proactive answers, maintaining efficiency and accuracy.

Exciting updates to the Foundation ecosystem include:

  • Data integration between Foundation and Foundation 365 for synced client and matter records.
  • AI-powered ‘what’s market’ insights embedded in Litera Draft.
  • Translation abilities for firm matter descriptions (Foundation Narratives).
  • AI-driven time and task data from Foundation Scoping.
  • Advanced document support in Foundation Insights, AI extracting vital experience data.
  • Customisation support for deal points within Foundation Insights.
  • User interface upgrades across various Foundation modules, like Marketing and Finance.
