80 P E E R T O P E E R : I L T A ' S Q U A R T E R L Y M A G A Z I N E | F A L L 2 0 2 3 M E M B E R R E S O U R C E S N E T D O C U M E N T S – U S E C A S E S A N D F U N C T I O N A L I T Y What are some specific use cases where NetDocuments is helping to deliver a product with great usability? The Contract Playbook Pattern Builder app is integrated into Microsoft Word and the functions run in a Word panel to help streamline the process of applying business rules and law firm expertise to a legal work task. This was impressive indeed. And the very user-friendly capability of loading a document, selecting a level of summary one wants (small, medium large) and generating a document summary was also an eye opener. Finally, it is important to note that Microsoft and NetDocuments have a strong partnership, which is beneficial in the sense that both parties are working to prevent harmful data in their AI models. Of course, sometimes you have "harmful data" like that in legal, for it is not uncommon for poor behavior, profanity, or inappropriate conduct to be dealt with in the context of legal cases (even if that type of data is typically excluded from most AI models from processing). Prohibiting AT to not using ingested data to train LLM, not retain data which is sent over, and not having human review of the data are all over strong elements of the Microsoft and NetDocuments partnership. Finally, the update closed with functionality where it takes only seconds to generate a deposition summary, of whatever length one wants, which is generated by generative AI and Pattern Builder. In terms of the end user value of this, data from the deposition summary which stored in NetDocuments can be converted to entities and fields, and subsequently loaded to matter management systems time and billing, systems, etc. And, just to complete the cycle and cover this functionality again, templates for the extraction of data from documents can be downloaded from studio apps, and ultimately can be expanded to create customized, bespoke apps in Pattern Builder to extract data in a customized manner. This can be done with a variety of legal documents, some examples being lease agreements, complaints, deposition, etc. N E T D O C U M E N T S – S U M M I N G U P Clearly, NetDocuments is product geared to allow members of the legal profession to review any document and create a useful summary from the document. They allow users to run some of the available automation tools and apply a firm's expertise to a document or task, such as utilizing a clause bank or logic within the contract playbook to automate a contract review. NetDocuments looks forward to continuing their product development function and continue to deliver value to the legal profession via the development of innovative products and expanding their network of legal- focused apps to serve the industry. iManage Company Update As my ILTA committee colleagues at iManage might say, perhaps I am saving the best for last. Introduced by Sergey Polak of the same ILTA Strategic Liaison Committee, Neil Araujo, "Templates for the extraction of data from documents can be downloaded from studio apps."
