How It Works
The system ingests custodian acknowledgments as its primary data source. The processing layer applies the appropriate analytical models to the structured data, generating scored outputs that surface the most actionable insights. The results integrate into the practitioner's existing workflow — presenting recommendations, flags, or automated outputs alongside their normal working context.
What Changes
Hold notice tracking and compliance monitoring are automated. AI identifies at-risk data sources proactively and documents the preservation chain.
What Stays
You still manage the client relationship around collection, handle custodian interviews, make practical decisions about collection scope, and ensure the process is defensible.
