AI-powered legal tech company Definely has launched a proprietary agentic AI system to help lawyers scale high-quality legal work.
The product, called Enhance, will be made available to Definely’s global customer base, which includes A&O Shearman, Deloitte and BT.
With Enhance, each model — or agent — specialises in specific tasks, such as summarisation or drafting support. Definely’s agentic system analyses the task, creates a plan, and assigns agents to handle different parts of the task.
Agents collaborate and gather information, passing it along until completion. This all happens with lawyer oversight, with performance of the AI agents evaluated and improved using Definely’s proprietary legal dataset and in-house expertise.
Enhance will allow lawyers to interact with the agentic system within Microsoft Word, to augment their existing workflows by making them faster and more efficient.
Definely said that its customers can expect to see a 40-70% speed improvement in their workflows using Enhance versus a traditional manual approach.
Feargus MacDaeid, co-founder and chief strategy officer of Definely, explained how their product suite assists lawyers perform day-today tasks optimally. “Lawyers work in high-pressure, high-stakes environments where a minor error in the wording of a contract could cost a law firm millions,” he said.
“We are committed to building AI-focused products that will genuinely help our customers de-risk their day-to-day work.
“As a company, we have not rushed head-first into building generic AI tools; rather, we’ve spent time identifying segments of the market that will derive the most value for lawyers and working alongside them to solve the problems that matter most.”
Sigurjón Ísaksson, head of artificial intelligence at Definely, added: “The Enhance product is interoperable with our Definely suite and can be used through a single natural language interface, which means lawyers don’t have to switch between multiple documents and files at the same time.
“The new system is the outcome of years of research and development, and we are excited to continue innovating to help our clients get the most out of the technology.”
