Briefpoint has unveiled its latest AI feature, Autodoc, designed to transform how legal professionals handle document-production requests during discovery. This innovative tool simplifies the intricacies of finding, assembling, and drafting responses for document requests, potentially shifting the landscape for cases involving fewer than 20,000 documents.
Autodoc automates the process by organizing case documents into a searchable database, thereby streamlining the traditionally time-consuming task of responding to production requests. Users begin by uploading both their documents and those from opposing counsel, triggering an extensive preprocessing phase. The output includes a package equipped with Bates-numbered documents and a formatted Word document, containing responses and potential objections.
Nathan Walter, the CEO of Briefpoint, emphasized that Autodoc goes beyond basic document retrieval. It uses the case complaint to grasp the case’s context and respond to nuanced queries, like pinpointing documents that support specific legal arguments. This feature, aimed at providing substantial efficiency gains in legal workflows, still ensures attorneys have the ability to conduct review and verification.
Key steps of using Autodoc involve uploading case documents, opposing counsel’s requests, and selecting or suggesting objections through the platform. The AI then searches for and identifies responsive documents based on the language within the requests. Walter showcased the platform’s features in a video demonstration, illustrating how Autodoc efficiently manages document breakdown and response assembly.
For legal professionals eager to gain access, Briefpoint offers current users free integration of Autodoc, while new users can benefit from monthly page processing credits. Priority access upon waitlist sign-up can be obtained by entering “Ambrogi” in the firm name field, expediting their experience with this AI-driven discovery solution.
