Standards for the Legal Industry (SALI) Alliance, the nonprofit group behind the creation of universal tagging to bring standardization to the way the legal industry references and communicates about matter types and services, announced this week a new AI-powered tool to quickly and accurately perform SALI tagging. Specifically, the new offering will have access to both GPT-3.5-Turbo and GPT-4 AI models to help eliminate the enormous variation in the ways lawyers describe tasks, matters, practice areas and more.

SALI has made significant headway since their formation in 2017 in getting major players in the legal industry to adopt the taxonomy they’ve created. Yet, like many in the legal industry, they’ve had to deal with mountains of data that needed to be sorted through manual efforts in order to create tagging that would be useful for the rest of the industry.
