Breaking News: Opus 2, the litigation platform, has bought Dutch startup Uncover, an AI-driven case management company. The move is part of their growth strategy to expand the business and provide more AI capabilities.
You can see more about Uncover in this AL piece here.
In terms of Uncover, it uses genAI to ‘surface insights and cross-references documents in context, much like a trained associate would, to ensure performance and reliability’. It also ‘automates document organisation, generates timelines, summarises key information, and provides intelligent search and case assistance’.
This builds upon a growing range of AI ‘skills’ that Opus 2 already has.
Greg Blackman, CEO at Opus 2, commented: ‘By combining our strengths, we’re poised to set a new standard for AI across the dispute lifecycle, delivering intuitive, innovative solutions that empower lawyers to excel and win cases.’
Caroline Zand-Korteweg, co-founder and co-CEO of Uncover, added: ‘In joining with Opus 2, we’re able to continue pursuing our mission to help lawyers be lawyers again, more productive, more insightful, and better equipped to thrive in the future. Together, we will accelerate the pace of innovation and keep our clients ahead in a rapidly evolving legal market.’
Ingrid van de Pol-Mensing, co-founder and co-CEO of Uncover, concluded: ‘From our earliest conversations, it was clear that Opus 2 shares our commitment to innovation, client service, security, and company culture. We’re proud to move forward into our next chapter with them.’
And here’s what AL wrote about Uncover last year:
‘Amsterdam-based Uncover, founded by Caroline Zand-Korteweg and Ingrid van de Pol-Mensing, started out with a vision to empower legal professionals to structure case files, generate timelines and summaries, conduct comprehensive document searches, and ‘foster seamless collaboration, all with a unified approach’.
Some of the features they are already offering include:
‘Structure – The AI automatically classifies documents on content, dates them and orders them in chronological order. Keep track of what you read, your deadlines and manage key information all in one place!
Timeline – Quickly find out what happened with our automatically generated timeline of events. Our AI extract all relevant facts from each and every document in your case and automatically creates a detailed chronology of events.
Summarise – Streamline your workflow with AI-powered document summarisation, extracting key insights and essential information from lengthy legal documents in seconds, enabling you to focus on critical case details and make informed decisions faster.
Search – All your documents are instantly converted into searchable text, making the entire case searchable. The days of opening all your documents one-by-one and searching for that one sentence or quote you need are over.
Ask Uncover – Whether you need assistance with drafting legal documents, gathering evidence or explaining case law, Uncover’s AI-enabled paralegal is here to help.
Collaborate – Collaborate efficiently with your team and clients in one workspace throughout the entire process and reduce inconsistencies and double work.’
And now also:
Case Assistant – ‘ask Uncover Case Assistant in simple language and it combines vector-based search with AI to find that needle in the haystack amidst the thousands of documents. It deeply understands context and will not only get you the information, but it will also formulate an accurate precise answer or advice, based on your specific case.’
