Problem

Legal teams spend long hours reading documents in property diligence. The start-up had relied on older supervised machine learning models.

Approach

The 2018 start-up moved to large language models on Azure OpenAI with GPT-4 and Azure OCR. An early version went to a few law firms in autumn 2023, and the product was ready to sell in December 2023.
