Summary
Transforming Discovery and Investigations with GenAI and Advanced Cloud Technologies
Merlin Search Technologies is proud to introduce DiscoveryPartner, a ground-breaking multi-LLM (large language model) cloud platform. Launched a year after OpenAI’s ChatGPT, DiscoveryPartner integrates generative AI with advanced cloud technologies, redefining ediscovery and large-scale investigations.
We are equally excited to introduce On/Off Cloud Utility Pricing, a money-saving hosting model made possible by DiscoveryPartner’s unique single-tenant cloud architecture. With On/Off utility pricing, clients can reduce hosting costs by up to 60% simply by switching sites off when not in use. It also marks the first green computing initiative for discovery and investigations.
Join Merlin founder and CEO John Tredennick and Chief Client Officer Kathy Hogy to learn how you can become a more effective discovery and investigations professional, while reducing costs for you and your clients, by harnessing GenAI and advanced cloud technologies:
- Find: DiscoveryPartner’s algorithmic search engine locates relevant documents in milliseconds, bypassing the need for complex keyword search techniques.
- Analyze: Leverage GenAI to analyze, summarize and synthesize across document sets, identifying issues, creating timelines and generating reports.
- Review: DiscoveryPartner’s AI-integrated review module supports customized review workflow, allowing teams to quickly review, classify and tag large document sets.
- Save: Reduce hosting costs by turning sites off when not in use, schedule site operating hours or use the Site Energy Saver to turn off sites automatically when idle.
Together, these innovations promise to revolutionize discovery workflow—allowing legal professionals to find, analyze and review information in large document sets quickly and efficiently, while dramatically reducing discovery and hosting costs.
