INSIGHT

Real-Time Deposition Safeguard

Depo CoPilot provides real-time transcript analysis during depositions to catch mistakes immediately.
That in-the-moment feedback lets lawyers fix problems before leaving the deposition, saving time and expense.

ADVICE

Define Deposition Goals First

Set explicit deposition goals before you start so the AI can evaluate progress every five minutes.
Use the AI's goal feedback to redirect questioning or capture supporting testimony while still at the deposition.

INSIGHT

Linked Evidence For Quick Verification

When Depo CoPilot marks a goal accomplished it links every transcript instance that supports that conclusion.
Lawyers can immediately review and reference those segments to confirm or adjust the record.

At its recent customer conference in Salt Lake City, called LEX Summit, the case management company Filevine unveiled a number of product releases and updates. Among them were several products for litigators driven by generative AI, including a first-of-its-kind tool, Depo CoPilot, that helps guide a lawyer during a deposition, and another, DemandsAI, that generates settlement demand letters in the lawyer's own voice and style.

On today's LawNext, we do a deep dive into those new products with the two executives who oversee product development at Filevine, Michael Anderson, chief product officer, and Alex McLaughlin, vice president of product. LawNext host Bob Ambrogi was at LEX Summit and sat down with Anderson and McLaughlin for this live conversation.

As Ambrogi wrote in his review of Depo CoPilot, it is like having a guardian angel on your shoulder during a deposition, analyzing and transcribing the questions and answers in real time to help ensure the lawyer achieves the desired goals, avoids unclear questions and identifies inconsistent answers. In today's episode, you will learn more about what it can do and how it works.

Note that this is our second episode from LEX Summit. In last week's show, we featured conversations recorded there live with three of Filevine's leaders: Ryan Anderson, the company's cofounder and CEO; Nathan Morris, cofounder and chief culture officer; and Cain Elliott, head legal futurist.

Also, Ryan Anderson was previously a guest on this show on April 27, 2022, so if you are interested in hearing from him in greater depth, check that out.
