Litigation & Discovery Agent
Supports litigation through document review and discovery.
Runs first-pass document review in discovery (relevance, privilege, key-document tagging) across millions of files, then builds the chronology and fact summary lead counsel argues from. Borderline privilege calls are double-reviewed by a privilege-judge agent, and a supervising counsel (accountable attorney) approves the production set before release.
