Legal AI

Research, contract review, e-discovery

Legal is a high-margin knowledge vertical where AI adoption accelerated sharply in 2025 via Harvey (valued ~$5B, OpenAI-backed), Thomson Reuters CoCounsel, and LexisNexis Protégé. Hallucination liability, privilege, and unauthorized-practice-of-law rules make grounded, citation-backed retrieval the binding requirement.
