eBrevia leverages AI to streamline contract analysis. Can you explain how eBrevia’s AI-powered tools help legal professionals, particularly in-house teams and law firms, increase efficiency and reduce the time spent on contract review?

eBrevia’s Contract Analyzer tackles bulk document review projects by extracting key data and providing custom insights across thousands of documents. Clients typically experience 60-90% in time savings and greater accuracy when compared with manual review. We’ve been around since 2011, so we’re incredibly honed through many years of feedback from our users. eBrevia’s intuitive user interface incorporates the nuances of legal and other workflows, enabling teams to easily collaborate, scope and allocate tasks.

Many legaltech players have recently entered the market, but we’ve been at it since 2011, and count as clients top law firms, three of the Big Four accounting firms, and numerous corporates. Even as we’re grounded in space and have longevity, we’re deploying new technology constantly, especially since we were re-acquired by our co-founders, Adam and Jake. For example, we recently launched our Lens feature, which allows users to ask questions in any language across thousands of documents for custom and deal-specific questions, no training required. We’re also launching a second beta version of our DraftPro product, which lets users easily create playbooks and harness data from previous contracts to speed up drafting and negotiation.

Data extraction and analysis are key components of legal work today. How does eBrevia’s technology enable legal teams to efficiently extract and analyze critical data from contracts, and what advantages does this bring in terms of legal decision-making?

eBrevia has been pre-trained to extract hundreds of concepts across different use cases and languages and can be prompted to answer deal-specific questions across thousands of documents without any training. And our platformisation feature, eBrevia Connect, allows users to connect eBrevia to more than 2,000 other systems. It’s simple to slot eBrevia into a preexisting workflow or toolkit.

In-house counsel and law firms often face pressure to manage high volumes of legal documents. How does eBrevia’s platform automate these processes, and what specific challenges in the legal industry does it help solve?

Our clients tell us the pressures and pace of change have only accelerated during the last 12 months. eBrevia helps legal teams remain competitive in a global market by maximizing efficiencies and reducing costs. With eBrevia, they generally experience a 60-90% time saving when it comes to document review.

Legal teams are often siloed, especially in large organizations. How does eBrevia facilitate collaboration between internal and external teams, helping lawyers, legal operations professionals, and other stakeholders work more seamlessly together?

Connectivity is key to getting teams to communicate well, and eBrevia Connect enables clients to integrate Contract Analyzer with more than 2,000 systems, including Salesforce, iManage and HighQ. Because Contract Analyzer is not priced per user, clients can add unlimited users without cost implications. Users across departments, or international colleagues and clients, can get access (with client-determined controls and restrictions).

Leadership can bring together sales, procurement, legal and finance teams for effective collaboration. eBrevia often becomes a secure repository for data and central source for truth.

As AI continues to evolve, what future capabilities do you envision for AI in legal tech? How does eBrevia plan to integrate these advancements to further empower legal professionals in the coming years?

eBrevia’s new DraftPro product harnesses clients’ own data to ensure the AI output complies with their needs and parameters. For example, if a lawyer is negotiating a contract and needs a suggestion for a clause, DraftPro looks at historical agreements and formulates a suggestion informed by internal precedent. We’ll be rolling out an updated beta version of DraftPro this Spring.

What can attendees expect from eBrevia at this year’s event? Are there any exciting new features, partnerships, or insights you plan to showcase that will help shape the future of legal practice?

We’re also excited to showcase three key product developments:

• eBrevia Lens: Lens enables users to prompt eBrevia and receive answers to deal-specific questions in many formats across thousands of documents – without a need to train the tool

• eBrevia Prep: Prep allows users to scope an entire project quickly at the beginning of a deployment.

• eBrevia DraftPro: DraftPro empowers clients to harness data in an entire legacy database to form insights for drafting future contracts.

Additionally, a core strength of eBrevia is the support and service we provide to our clients. Many of our clients have been around for more than 100 years and we have been part of their journey. We’re happy to discuss the needs of Future Lawyer attendees (what’s working and what we can develop in future) and can lend an experienced, yet nimble hand. Please stop by!
