ReframeYour lawyers ask AI tools about a few documents at a time
Your firm has millions of documents, and the answers your lawyers need are in those documents. A lawyer who asks what the firm accepted from a client last time can spend hours searching iManage.
Your lawyers turn to AI tools for help. An AI tool reads only the documents the attorney selects, and the tool can miss the key fact in a document nobody selected.
Accuracy falls as the document set grows
Reframe tested the same AI model on a simulated fund formation practice of 1,000 documents across 91 funds. We ran 144 questions across 12 question types on three systems: advanced retrieval search, an agent reading the raw files, and Reframe.
Retrieval search is often called RAG, short for retrieval-augmented generation. RAG search returns the passages most similar to a question, and the AI model answers from those passages. Read how RAG compares with a legal knowledge graph.
We ran the same test on 300 documents and then on 1,000 documents. As the document set grew, retrieval search lost 10 percent of its accuracy and the agent reading the raw files lost 16 percent. Reframe maintained its accuracy.
Questions about a past date show the gap clearly. The answer depends on the amendment that governed on that date, and Reframe stores the effective date of every amendment and restatement. On those questions, Reframe improved accuracy 67 percent over retrieval search.
Reframe reads every document once
Reframe reads every document in iManage and SharePoint against a legal ontology your lawyers define. Reframe files each fact with the client, matter and page, so nobody tags a document by hand.
Your lawyers ask Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot and get the answer in seconds, linked to the source and checked against your ethical walls.
Every night, Reframe reviews new documents and proposes updates for your knowledge team to approve, such as a changed term or a precedent to reuse.
Search iManage, and send data back to iManage and SharePoint
Your lawyers search within iManage through Reframe, and each answer includes a link to the source document in iManage. Each lawyer signs in with an iManage account, so Reframe returns only the documents the lawyer can open in iManage.
Reframe also sends data back to iManage and SharePoint to enrich your firm's sources of truth. After your knowledge team approves an update, Reframe fills the iManage profile fields and SharePoint columns your firm chooses, such as the document type, the parties and the key dates. Your lawyers then see complete document profiles in the systems your firm already uses.
The result on 1,000 fund documents
With Reframe, the same AI model made 45 percent fewer errors than retrieval search and 53 percent fewer than the agent reading the raw files.
The model scored 99.5 percent accuracy on fund terms across 66 funds the system had never seen.
Measure the difference on your firm's documents
Start with one practice. In a 90-minute working session, your lawyers bring the questions they ask, and Reframe moves no documents for the session.
