Relativity Brings Conversational AI to Legal Review
Relativity, a legal data intelligence company, announced the general availability of aiR Assist and custom analyses in Relativity aiR for Review at its RelFest London event. Both capabilities will be standard in the RelativityOne offering by the end of June 2026, extending the platform’s ability to deliver earlier insight and more flexible document review across a broader spectrum of legal data work.
aiR Assist enables legal teams to ask plain-language questions of their data and receive precise, cited answers instantly, so they can find the facts that matter, follow the evidence, and start shaping strategy from the moment data enters RelativityOne. Custom analyses, built on aiR for Review’s foundation, allow legal teams to define, deploy, and scale their document review workflows to fit the specific needs of any matter.
"aiR Assist and custom analyses represent a meaningful advancement in how legal teams put AI to work, not as a layer on top of legal data, but as a native part of RelativityOne, where AI and human expertise work together in one environment," said Phil Saunders, CEO of Relativity. "Almost any AI solution can read a document. Almost none can be the single, auditable source of truth for every piece of data in your matter. That is the difference: insights grounded in actual data, outputs defensible by design, and governance that holds up when it counts, in court, before a regulator, or in front of a board."
aiR Assist Delivers Earlier Insight, Directly Within the AI Platform for Legal Data Intelligence
Early case intelligence shapes the trajectory of legal work, but accessing it quickly remains a persistent industry-wide challenge. aiR Assist addresses this gap by giving legal teams a conversational way to interact with their data as soon as it becomes available. Users ask questions in plain language and receive citation-backed answers that connect documents, evidence, and relationships across the full data landscape of a given project.
Because aiR Assist can operate directly on data already governed within RelativityOne, answers remain grounded in a complete system of record that is traceable, explainable and defensible by design. With aiR Assist included in RelativityOne, teams get this capability across their existing workflows without a separate tool, at the scale of real-world legal projects, with support for up to 300,000 documents per index and 1.5 million documents per workspace.
"aiR Assist changes the relationship between a legal team and their data. Ask a question, get an answer in seconds without leaving the platform," said Chris Brown, Chief Product Officer at Relativity. "That alone is a meaningful step forward. But we are building towards something bigger, a future where every legal professional, not just those with deep technical expertise, can engage directly with their data, unlock insight, and act on it, all within the same governed environment where the work already lives."
