AI Governance Infrastructure
Core AI
Core AI provides the governance infrastructure law firms need to adopt artificial intelligence safely and consistently.
Industry Reality
AI Adoption is Outpacing Governance
Many law firms are experimenting with tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, and legal AI assistants. But most lack the infrastructure to answer critical governance questions:
- What data is AI using?
- Are prompts exposing confidential information?
- Does AI usage align with firm policy?
- Can leadership review or audit usage?
The Governance Gap
The Missing Layer in AI Adoption
Most AI tools focus on productivity.
They help attorneys draft, summarize, or analyze documents.
But law firms still lack the infrastructure to govern how AI is used across the organization.
Core AI provides the governance layer that connects AI usage to firm structure, policy, and administrative oversight.
Structured AI Usage for Legal Work.
All AI conversations in Core AI are structured around the same objects that organize legal work — matters, clients, and firm policy.
- Firm-Level Policy.
- Define guidance and guardrails for how AI should be used across the firm.
- Matter & Client Context.
- All AI conversations can be associated with specific matters and clients.
- Built-in Oversight.
- Firm leadership maintains visibility into how AI is used across the organization.
AI Governance Platform
Core AI in Practice
Every AI interaction - whether client-facing, internal, or reviewed - is governed by the same underlying system:
Core AI in Practice
A Single Governed Workspace
An attorney drafts a client update using AI within a matter.
The system then:
- Applies firm confidentiality rules before output is generated.
- Adjusts tone based on client-specific preferences.
- Logs the full interaction within the matter.
- Makes the activity available for review and audit.
The interaction is stored with the exact policy version in effect at the time, creating a complete, auditable record.
Core AI in Practice
Internal Analysis Within a Matter
An attorney analyzes a contract using AI to identify key risks.
The system then:
- Applies restrictions on external data sharing and sensitive content exposure.
- Ensures outputs align with firm-approved analysis standards and guidelines.
- Records the interaction within the matter history.
- Makes the activity visible for internal review.
The interaction is stored with the exact policy version in effect at the time, creating a complete, auditable record.
Core AI in Practice
Firm-Wide Review & Oversight
A flagged interaction is reviewed by a supervising attorney.
The system then:
- Highlights interactions that may require attention.
- Preserves full context, including policy and matter linkage.
- Records review decisions and follow-up actions.
- Maintains a complete audit trail of the review process.
The interaction and its review are stored together, creating a continuous, auditable record of AI usage and oversight.
Governance Infrastructure
Operational AI Governance
Core AI provides the infrastructure firms need to govern how artificial intelligence is used across their entire organization.
- Enforceable Policy
AI interactions are shaped by firm-defined policies and guidance. This ensures AI usage aligns with internal standards rather than relying on individual attorney behavior.
- Administrative Visibility
Firm leadership and internal teams maintain visibility into how AI is used across the organization. Usage patterns and activity can be reviewed to support operational oversight.
- Audit & Reporting
Conversation history and usage logs provide traceability when reviewing AI-assisted work. This creates a clear record of how AI interactions occurred within the firm.
