Early case assessment (ECA) tools have become a critical component of the legal technologist’s arsenal. Providing a window into the potential challenges and costs associated with litigation, these platforms can help legal departments model scenarios and formulate strategies that address previously unseen circumstances. With that in mind, Planet Data has announced the release of the Exego Select platform, which the company hopes will aid legal projects in the “pre-review” process of case assessment.
Deviating from traditional early case assessment faculties, Exego Select focuses on the pre-review process by offering tools like email threading and concept searching right off the bat. The company says that the use of such analytics-based functionality is uncommon in ECA tools until relatively late in the review process. It also says that the highly visual nature and email threading capabilities of the tool make the pre-review process easier than ever to manage.
