Litera & Microsoft partner to enhance legal tech efficiency
Litera, a global player in legal technology solutions, has declared that it is working with Microsoft to devise a Microsoft Copilot integration, aiming to bolster efficiency and accuracy in the legal profession. This move aims to yield an amalgamated and intelligent user experience for lawyers, deploying services from Litera and Microsoft Copilot within Microsoft 365.
Litera has been pioneering AI innovation, with its latest achievement, Foundation Dragon, marking a groundbreaking milestone in the field. This first-of-its-kind generative AI (GenAI) deal term database offers legal teams immediate access to relevant data points from older corporate deals. Matt James, Vice President of Litera, expressed his eagerness to discuss how the thirty-year alliance between Litera and Microsoft has been facilitated by law firms adopting AI, even those facing client resistance, AI misinformation, hallucinations, or change fatigue.
According to Adam Ryan, VP of Product at Litera, the end of 2024 should see many lawyers incorporating Copilot into their day-to-day operations. Adam stated, "Being a Microsoft partner empowers Litera to create singular, seamless experiences. We're bringing our comprehension of legal workflows and user behaviour to this collaboration to curb distractions and enhance user interaction with Microsoft tools in instituting and managing law. We're thrilled to innovate alongside Microsoft and amalgamate Microsoft Copilot with Litera's robust suite of legal technology."
Litera is pushing the envelope with its technology to blend with Copilot for Microsoft 365. This step is backed by over a decade of expertise with AI legal technology, which ensures an effortless combination of Litera and Microsoft. Meagan Smith, Regional Director of Legal Industry at Microsoft, said, "This collaboration with Litera aims to explore how innovative AI technology like Microsoft Copilot can be utilised by the legal community. This working association promises better integrations and streamlined workflows for our legal practice community."
