CHICAGO, March 19 – Litera, a global leader in legal technology, today announced the groundbreaking launch of two major innovations: Litera One and Litera AI+.

Litera One is the legal industry’s first unified, cloud-based solution that seamlessly integrates drafting, contract review, and firm performance tools within Microsoft Word and Outlook. Available April 14, Litera One eliminates fragmentation in legal work by creating continuous GenAI-enhanced workflows, allowing lawyers to draft, analyze documents, evaluate market insights, and access client matter data and knowledge management all within a single ecosystem across any device. This innovative solution enhances efficiency and eliminates the need to step outside native workflows.

“While most legal tech providers offer point solutions and AI that address isolated challenges, Litera One is the first to truly connect firm performance, knowledge management, drafting, and review directly where our customers are already doing their work,” said Avaneesh Marwaha, CEO of Litera. “With Litera One, we are eliminating the need for lawyers to switch between up to seven different applications when working on a single matter, dramatically improving accuracy and consistency.”

At the core of Litera One is Litera AI+, a secure, purpose-built generative AI solution engineered specifically for legal workflows and integrated with Microsoft Azure’s OpenAI services. Unlike generic AI tools retrofitted for legal use, Litera AI+ for Drafting understands legal context and connects directly with Litera solutions, such as Litera Compare, Contract Companion, and DocXtools Companion, to create a continuous intelligence layer across the entire document lifecycle.

“What sets Litera AI+ apart from other legal AI solutions is its deep integration throughout the entire workflow,” said Adam Ryan, Litera’s Chief Product Officer. “Rather than simply offering AI capabilities as a standalone feature, we’ve embedded intelligence at every step of the legal workflow process. This connected approach means the system learns and improves as it moves between tasks, such as drafting, review, and analysis, while maintaining the highest security standards to protect sensitive client information.”

The unified Litera One solution delivers substantial advantages for firms of all sizes:

Connected Workflows: Eliminate friction between drafting, review, knowledge management, and firm performance with the only platform that maintains context across all phases of legal work.
Contextual Intelligence: Save valuable time with AI that remembers previous edits, understands firm practices, and applies learnings across the entire legal work lifecycle.
Universal Accessibility: Access the complete Litera toolkit across any device or operating system without interrupting your workflow or forcing context switches.
Collaborative Knowledge: Leverage institutional expertise and Litera AI+ insights directly within native workflows, reducing errors while ensuring consistency with firm standards.
Simplified Technology: Replace multiple standalone applications with a single, intuitive interface that requires minimal training and delivers faster startup times for Word and Outlook.
Rapid ROI: Achieve a timely measurable return on investment through reduced IT overhead, simplified deployment, and immediate productivity gains.

The initial Litera One release delivers cloud-based versions of Litera’s essential drafting tools: Litera Compare, Contract Companion, and DocXtools Companion. Customers can run both desktop and SaaS versions simultaneously, allowing for flexible adoption. Upcoming releases will integrate Kira, Litera Transact, Litera Draft, Foundation, Foundation Insights, Foundation Finance, Foundation Scoping, and Foundation Clients, creating the industry’s only truly end-to-end connected legal workflow.

Litera developed Litera One in collaboration with over 30 beta customers, ensuring the platform addresses real-world needs. Tim Zgraggen, Technology Training and Digital Adoption Consultant for the Americas at Linklaters LLP, reported: “Throughout our collaboration, Litera listened intently to our feedback and addressed our concerns and suggestions, ensuring the solution met our unique needs. This partnership resulted in an interface that allows our team to focus on high-value tasks by simplifying complex processes, so we can both enhance productivity and deliver the highest quality of work to our clients.”
