A recent press release states, “OpenText™, a global leader in Enterprise Information Management (EIM), today announced that leading international law firm Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP will be the first law firm to deploy OpenText Magellan, OpenText’s AI-enabled analytics platform. Pillsbury will leverage Magellan to deliver expanded automation and artificial intelligence enhancements to the firm’s global legal practice. ‘Technology is rapidly disrupting the legal profession and Pillsbury is leading the transformation. We were pioneers in the use of technology-assisted review and cloud-based eDiscovery, and we have achieved remarkable efficiencies for Pillsbury’s clients using our OpenText Axcelerate platform,’ said Pillsbury litigation partner, David L. Stanton. ‘Now, we are working with OpenText to integrate the Magellan AI suite, another industry first. It gives us flexible machine learning capabilities and an adaptive suite of text-mining and visualization tools, which will change how we approach big data—driving faster and more in-depth legal analytics and permitting us to leverage custom data models and taxonomies to streamline labor-intensive tasks’.”
The release goes on, “Magellan complements the firm’s existing OpenText Axcelerate Cloud deployment and will deliver extended machine learning abilities beyond traditional eDiscovery—enabling Pillsbury’s attorneys to interact with large data collections in new ways that will make it easier to understand and present legal case narratives and to unearth investigatory facts. Stanton continued, ‘We are building intelligent tools with Magellan to make our legal teams even more efficient and effective, with automated document summaries and chronologies, instant sentiment analysis and AI-enabled privilege detection already on the way. Our overriding goal at Pillsbury is exceptional client service, and this investment will help us deliver on that promise while keeping our clients’ costs down’.”
