Problem the AI is intended to solve

Improve the quality and efficiency of legal research, legal document review, and legal document preparation. The Lexis+ Document Analysis tool will improve efficiency and accuracy of legal services by giving OGC legal professionals the ability to have documents read and researched by the tool, reducing the time and legal skills required for legal research, legal writing, legal reviews, and trial preparation. The AI solution is preparing and synthesizing notes to be used by the legal teams; it is not preparing a conclusion or draft decision for legal teams.

- Better outcomes from litigation - Improve the timeliness and accuracy of legal advice
