Our take
The explosive popularity of generative AI tools has seen specialized solutions popping up for all kinds of industries. Hoping to help supercharge efficiency and productivity for legal teams, Harvey supplies generative AI that can assist with documentation, as well as aid research and optimize workflows.
Via natural language instructions, Harvey helps draft and analyze legal documents. It can also answer complex questions across large document sets, or even handle research queries that cover multiple domains in legal, regulatory and tax.
Its ability to support legal practitioners as if it's another member of the team is what makes Harvey particularly interesting. This approach has seen the company raise substantial funding, reaching Unicorn status in 2024. Funds are now being used to expand to new geographies, grow headcount and further collect and curate data to train more “domain-specific” AI models.
