🎯 What is DISCO AI?
DISCO AI is the generative-AI layer inside DISCO’s e-discovery and litigation-hold platform—a cloud-native legal assistant that reads, reasons, and drafts across millions of documents so attorneys don’t have to. It is purpose-built for high-stakes litigation, where a single missed clause can cost millions.
⚙️ How It Works (3-Minute Flow)
| Step | Tech Behind the Curtain | What the Lawyer Sees |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Ingestion | Secure API pulls emails, chats, contracts, PDFs into DISCO’s ISO-27001 / SOC-2 environment | “3.2 M files imported in 2 hrs, no manual staging.” |
| 2. AI Review | Transformer models score relevance, privilege, responsiveness; every result cites the exact page & Bates number for verifiable evidence | Hover-card shows why a doc is hot. |
| 3. Gen-Drafting | LLM drafts privilege logs, deposition outlines, or case chronologies inside counsel-controlled templates | Accept / Reject / Edit in one click. |
| 4. Human Loop | Built-in “Reject & Re-train” button feeds corrections back to the model for the next batch | Continuous improvement without exposing client data |
