August 30, 2011 – kCura’s Chief Strategy Officer, Jay Leib, was recently a guest author for Corporate Counsel’s “From the Experts” column. In the article, Jay writes about how using text analytics during review can increase speed, reduce costs, and improve overall quality.

Text analytics is also the feature set that powers Relativity Assisted Review, a workflow that allows reviewers to get to important documents faster by teaching Relativity what qualifies as a responsive or non-responsive document.
