Documentum — AI-Powered Contract Review Platform
We helped Documentum replace manual contract review with an AI platform that reads, classifies, and searches contracts — cutting review time by 90%.
Industry: Legal Services
Summary
Documentum's legal teams were spending thousands of hours on manual contract review — reading documents, identifying key clauses, and searching for specific terms across massive archives. We built an AI platform on AWS that reads contracts, understands clause types and risk levels, and makes the entire library searchable by meaning rather than keywords. The system now processes thousands of contracts per hour with strict data isolation between teams.
Results
- Review Time: -90%
- Uptime: 99.97%
- Search Speed: <2s
- Scale: 50K+ docs
Highlights
- 90% reduction in contract review time
- Thousands of contracts processed per hour
- Instant semantic search across the full library
- Strict data isolation between teams and matters
- 99.97% platform uptime
The Problem
Documentum's legal teams were spending a significant portion of billable hours on manual contract review — reading through documents to identify obligations, termination terms, liability clauses, and confidentiality provisions. Searching for a specific clause across thousands of contracts meant unreliable keyword searches or scrolling through PDFs one by one.
They also needed strict data separation between teams — in legal work, it's critical that groups working on different matters can never access each other's documents.
Our Solution
We built an AI platform on AWS that works in three stages. First, the system reads and extracts all text and structure from uploaded contracts. Then, AI analyses each section to classify clause types and flag potential risks. Finally, everything is indexed for semantic search — meaning teams can search by concept rather than exact keywords.
Data isolation was built into every layer, ensuring complete separation between different teams and matters. The platform scales automatically to handle peak demand without manual intervention.
The Outcome
Contract review time dropped by 90%. What previously took hours now completes in minutes. Semantic search means lawyers find relevant clauses in seconds, even when the exact terminology varies between documents. The platform has maintained 99.97% uptime since launch and has passed multiple compliance audits.
Documentum needed to transform how legal teams process and review contracts. We built an AI platform that automates the heavy lifting.
