### What is DiscoverLex?
DiscoverLex is an AI-powered eDiscovery and litigation intelligence platform built for litigation teams handling complex cases. It provides AI legal case help by using semantic AI to read, index, and analyze every document in a case — PDFs, emails, scanned images, depositions, contracts, and 40+ other file formats. Unlike keyword-based eDiscovery tools, DiscoverLex understands legal concepts and context, delivering answers with full citation trails traceable to source documents and page numbers. The platform uses a production-grade multi-engine OCR pipeline (Docling + Qwen2.5-VL) on scanned documents and processes entire discovery sets in hours rather than weeks. Every finding includes confidence scores, source citations, and contradiction flags, giving legal teams the ability to build stronger cases faster while reducing the risk of missing critical evidence. DiscoverLex is built to SOC 2 Type II standards, offers on-premise deployment, and ensures that client documents never leave the client's controlled environment.

### The Problem: Why Is Legal Document Review Broken?
Modern litigation generates millions of documents per case. Manual review takes months, keyword search misses context, human reviewers can't see connections across thousands of documents, and contradictions between depositions go unnoticed. Legacy eDiscovery tools were not built for this scale. Lawyers need AI legal case help that actually understands what they're looking for.

Key challenges:
- Buried in Volume: Millions of pages per case. Manual review takes months and still misses critical evidence.
- Time Pressure: Discovery deadlines don't wait. Every hour of manual review is billed to your client or your margin.
- Invisible Connections: Relationships between entities, dates, and events span thousands of documents.
- Contradictions Go Unnoticed: Conflicting statements across depositions, filings, and correspondence.

### The Solution: How Does AI-Powered eDiscovery Work?
Your team asks questions in plain English. AI returns cited answers from every document in your case — with sources, confidence scores, and contradiction flags. This is AI legal case help that works the way attorneys think.

Capabilities:
- Ingest Everything: Feed your entire discovery set. Our OCR engine (Docling + Qwen2.5-VL) makes every word searchable in minutes.
- Search With Precision: Ask questions in plain English. Get answers with citations, page numbers, and confidence scores.
- Map Relationships: Expose hidden connections between parties, entities, and events across documents.
- Deep Dive Analysis: AI synthesizes answers, cross-references testimony, and flags contradictions.

### How Do You Get Started with DiscoverLex?
1. Upload Your Documents: Drop your full discovery set — depositions, contracts, emails, exhibits.
2. AI Processes & Indexes: Our engine extracts parties, dates, clauses, builds relationship graphs, and indexes every page.
3. Search, Analyze, Build Your Case: Query in plain language. Get cited answers, relationship maps, and contradiction flags.

### What is eDiscovery? A Complete Guide for Legal Teams
Electronic discovery (eDiscovery) is the process of identifying, collecting, and producing electronically stored information (ESI) for use as evidence in legal proceedings. eDiscovery covers emails, documents, databases, social media, voicemails, and any other digital information that may be relevant to a legal matter. The Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM) defines the standard workflow: Information Governance, Identification, Preservation, Collection, Processing, Review, Analysis, Production, and Presentation. AI is transforming eDiscovery by automating document review, using semantic search instead of keyword matching, and detecting contradictions across massive document sets. DiscoverLex uses AI to compress what traditionally takes weeks of attorney review into hours of AI-assisted analysis.

### AI vs Manual Document Review: A Side-by-Side Comparison
Traditional manual document review relies on teams of attorneys reading documents one at a time, using keyword searches to narrow the set. This approach misses context, takes weeks, costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, and suffers from inconsistency between reviewers. AI-powered document review uses semantic understanding to find relevant documents by meaning rather than exact keywords, processes millions of pages in hours, maintains consistent quality, and automatically surfaces contradictions and relationships that human reviewers miss. Key comparison: Time to review (6-8 weeks vs under 4 hours), accuracy (approximately 70% vs 2-pass AI verification), scalability (linear cost vs constant throughput), consistency (variable vs uniform AI categorization).

### AI Document Review: A Complete Guide
AI document review uses natural language processing and machine learning to classify, prioritize, and analyze legal documents. Modern AI legal case help platforms like DiscoverLex go beyond basic TAR (technology-assisted review) by understanding document semantics, detecting contradictions between sources, mapping entity relationships, and providing cited answers to complex legal questions.

### eDiscovery Cost Guide
eDiscovery software pricing in 2026 ranges from per-GB models to per-seat subscriptions. DiscoverLex offers transparent per-seat pricing starting at $399/mo for solo practitioners, with AI inference billed at actual cost + 10%. No hidden hosting fees, no per-GB charges, no surprise bills.

### AI Deposition Contradictions
AI finds contradictions in depositions by cross-referencing testimony against documents, prior statements, and other witness testimony. DiscoverLex flags conflicting statements automatically with full citation trails, helping litigation teams prepare devastating cross-examinations.

## Use Cases
