Flo AI dashboard displays a plain-language query about law firm associate performance and recruiting data trends.

Flo AI Turns Law Firm Talent Data Into Instant Answers

Flo has announced the launch of Flo AI, an AI solution that answers the talent questions law firm leaders and partners have never been able to put to a single system. Which recruiting sources produce the associates who go on to perform the best? Which skills now separate the firm’s strongest performers, and how has that changed with AI adoption? Flo AI answers questions like these in plain language, based on a firm’s own recruiting and performance data.

The launch comes as AI reshapes legal work and firms rethink their talent strategies. Leaders are adjusting, more quickly than before, whom they hire and how they develop their people, and those decisions are only as sound as the data behind them. Until now, pulling data has meant combining exports from separate systems into spreadsheets for manual analysis. Even then, spreadsheets work only with structured data — the deepest insights live in the unstructured text of feedback forms and notes. Flo AI unlocks that text at scale.

A few examples of what a talent leader, practice group head, or managing partner can ask:

Fill a role faster by using what already works.
‘I am opening a senior litigation associate search. Based on the candidates who succeeded in past litigation searches, pull the profiles in our pipeline that match the qualifications that predicted strong hires, and tell me whom to prioritise.’

See how talent needs are shifting in the age of AI.
‘As AI changes legal work, which skills and backgrounds now predict our highest performers, and how has that shifted over the past few years? Look at interview evaluations and performance reviews together.’

Connect a hire to their performance.
‘Which interviewers consistently predict who will become a top performer?’

‘The best firm leaders already carry these questions in their heads. What they have never had is a way to answer them from their own data in seconds,’ said Katherine Allen, Co-Founder and CEO of Flo. ‘Flo AI connects recruiting and performance so leaders can see not just who they hired, but how those decisions played out, and what to do next as the legal world evolves.’

Flo AI answers in plain language and points to the candidates, reviews, and matters behind every answer, working across Flo Pipeline Building, Applicant Tracking, Work Allocation, and Performance Management. Importantly, the access levels of recruiting and professional development team members can be limited according to their role.
