According to the most recent Annual Law Department Operations Survey, legal operations professionals consider their top KPIs to be legal spend, value provided to the corporation, client satisfaction and matter outcomes. Law departments are increasingly using data analytics and AI-powered tools to impact those objectives. While legal operations professionals and in-house counsel know that AI is one of the top technology trends to watch, AI and machine learning are constantly evolving and changing the way legal organizations operate.

• Legal departments can use AI-powered tools to predict and reduce legal spend.
• Legal operations professionals define value and leverage technology.
• AI-tools can improve cycle time in the contracting process and lead to increased client satisfaction.
• The use of analytics and AI can improve decision making and predict better outcomes.
