A cloud-native e-discovery platform known for its speed, performance, and integrated AI features designed to accelerate legal document review and case preparation.

Professional

Overview

DISCO provides a modern, AI-driven platform for managing the entire e-discovery lifecycle. Built on cloud infrastructure (AWS), it emphasizes processing speed and review performance. DISCO AI incorporates predictive tagging (TAR/Predictive Coding) to help legal teams quickly identify relevant documents. It offers a library of pre-trained AI models for common review objectives (like privilege or specific topics) and allows leveraging insights across different matters (Cross-Matter AI). The platform includes advanced search, data visualization, workflow automation, and collaboration tools. DISCO Case Builder helps teams manage depositions and build case narratives. They also offer managed review services and have introduced Cecilia AI, a generative AI tool for querying documents and generating summaries within the platform. DISCO targets law firms and corporate legal departments handling complex litigation and investigations.
