Today sees the introduction of a new product KLapper, which functions as a DIY legal virtual assistant builder, specifically designed to cater to the unique needs of law firm knowledge management and innovation teams.
The tool was developed by KLoBot Inc., a company dedicated to producing technology meant for knowledge management within the legal field. KLapper provides an option for legal professionals to design, train and deploy advanced virtual assistants without requiring extensive IT backend support.
KLapper is hosted on Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI Service and gives a no-code interface, thus allowing KM and innovation teams to design and deploy no-code virtual assistants across various platforms like Microsoft SharePoint, Zoom, Teams, web-based applications, smartphone apps, Windows 11, and more, as is stated by the company.
KLapper’s real edge comes from its use of generative AI. Unlike traditional programs, KLapper learns from a firm’s intricate business datasets via intelligent connectors. Therefore, it can provide contextually relevant responses and insights, according to information provided by the company.
The applications for KLapper are wide-ranging and could include:
- A legal research assistant.
- Document review and analysis.
- Document drafting and contract review.
- Document automation.
- Managing client interaction and communication.
- Billing and time tracking.
The creators highlight KLapper’s ability to smoothly integrate with various critical firm applications, thus enhancing its understanding and responsiveness using data and insights from these platforms. These platforms can range from NetDocuments and iManage to time and billing systems such as Elite, Aderant, and Intapp; from Lexis Nexis and SharePoint to Salesforce ServiceNow; SQL server databases, and HTTPS microservices.
Ragav Jagannathan, president and CEO of KLoBot, states that KLapper’s goal is to bring sophisticated, user-friendly, and cost-effective AI technology which will redefine processes, enhance client experiences, and drive innovation in law firms. The combination of generative AI and seamless integrations into a firm’s Document Management System (DMS), time and billing platform, and SQL databases ultimately results in KLapper providing attorneys and their legal teams with a holistic view of client, matter and business information, thereby driving productivity and supporting high-quality decisions.
KLapper is set up within a firm’s Microsoft Azure tenant to ensure top-grade data security and confidentiality. The product is licensed based on a usage model.
