Our take
Trawling through documents for litigation information became a whole lot harder for legal teams with the rise of digital records. Electronically stored information (ESI) takes up an increasingly large amount of the discovery work, although the vast majority is irrelevant, so digging through it is laborious. A number of legaltech startups rose to meet this challenge, developing software that legal teams could use to carry out this process in-house. eDiscovery software has since risen to become a nearly $12 billion industry.
A particular edge for Logikcull is their cloud-based software’s suitability for small projects, along with the affordable price and user-friendly interface which may put them above rival platforms like ILS or Relativity. With ESI playing an increasingly major role in litigation, the ability to onboard the new customers joining the market is likely to play well for Logikcull.
The market is maturing, with key players carrying out a number of interesting acquisitions, but growth doesn’t appear to be slowing down. That $12 billion figure is expected by some reports to top $18 billion by 2027.
