Leverage ECA Workflow to Gain Insights, Evaluate Risk, and Save Cost and Time
Early Case Assessment is more of an opportunity than a solution. Litigation professionals and case teams need an efficient platform to sort through voluminous data sets and identify content of interest before committing to full-scale review.
Establish Case Strategy Early
When challenged with quickly establishing a discovery plan, ECA gives case teams the platform to identify the content of interest fast, so strategy is built on data rather than guesswork.
Drive Efficiency from Prior Cases
Leverage learnings and work product from previous matters to lower review cost. Prior coding decisions carry forward, so your team is never starting from scratch on recurring topics or custodians.
Meaningful Visualizations, Earlier
Gain access to visualizations early in the discovery process to implement cost-efficient case strategies and increase productivity while maintaining coding consistency across litigation.
Quality and Consistency at Scale
Maintain consistent coding decisions across matters. ECA enforces review quality across litigation, regulatory inquiries, and internal investigations regardless of team size or matter complexity.
Built for Complex Matter Types
ECA applies across litigation, regulatory inquiries, internal investigations, and forensic matter assessments so your team uses one platform regardless of matter type.
Why Early Case Assessment Changes the Economics of Discovery
ECA shifts the cost curve by identifying high-value and
low-value data before committing to full-scale review.
- Reduce Review Volume: Identify and cull non-responsive, duplicate, and system files before they reach the review stage. Teams regularly reduce review volume by 40-60% through effective ECA.
- Inform Case Strategy Early: Understand data distribution, key custodians, date ranges, and document types before committing to a discovery plan. Make decisions based on data, not assumptions.
- Leverage Prior Work Product: Apply coding decisions from previous matters to new datasets. Documents coded in past cases carry their tags forward, eliminating redundant review effort.
- Evaluate Settlement Posture: Gain early visibility into the strength of evidence to inform settlement negotiations, budget planning, and resource allocation before litigation intensifies.
- Support Investigation Scoping: Rapidly assess data volumes and content distribution for internal investigations, regulatory inquiries, and forensic examinations to determine scope and resource requirements before committing to full investigation workflows.

The ECA Workflow: From Raw Data to Strategic Clarity
A structured early case assessment workflow turns overwhelming data volumes into actionable intelligence that legal teams can use to make informed decisions.
- Data Profiling and Visualization: Understand data composition, custodian distribution, file type breakdown, and date ranges through interactive dashboards and visual analytics.
- Culling and Filtering: Apply date range, custodian, keyword, file type, and domain filters to narrow the dataset to matter-relevant content before review begins.
- Knowledge Repository Access: Search previously reviewed documents, apply prior coding decisions, and access saved work products from earlier matters to accelerate assessment and reduce redundant effort.
- Risk and Cost Estimation: Generate data volume projections, estimated review timelines, and cost forecasts based on the assessed dataset to support budget planning and resource allocation.
