Everlaw Founder and CEO AJ Shankar responded to my question, “Tell me what makes Everlaw’s new Project Query different?” with a deep dive into their implementation of RAG AI. Instead of complicated prompts or rigid review workflows, this extends the EverlawAI Assistant portfolio by allowing non-technical users to just ask questions and get a GenAI summary derived exclusively from and linked to your hosted documents.

CEO Mike Schubert barely mentioned their new StreemView AI search in our briefing.

Working from home has challenged many HR, legal and compliance departments to adapt their policies and acceptable use guidelines. Video online meetings and continuous chat channels are essential tools to keep internal/external teams virtually connected.

A good friend from my Summation days put Insight Optix CEO Mandi Ross in touch with me to explore her new cloud matter scoping platform, Evidence Optix (EO).
