Copious запустила платформу Litigated.com для автоматизации юридических процессов с помощью ИИ

Copious launches Litigated.com AI for legal workflows Mon, 6th Jul 2026Copious has launched Litigated.com, an AI legal intelligence platform for law firms that is already being used commercially by firms in the legal and claims management sector. The launch expands technology Copious first developed for housing disrepair cases. That earlier system analysed tenant-submitted images of damp, mould, leaks and structural defects to identify repair issues and support access to redress. Litigated.com applies the same underlying approach to a broader range of legal tasks, including financial claims, disclosure analysis, chronology building and wider litigation workflows. The platform is designed to reduce time spent on document review and evidence handling, two areas that continue to absorb large amounts of fee-earner and support staff time across legal practices. Copious said a disclosure review or data subject access request extraction task that might take around six hours manually can be completed in minutes through automated extraction. Wider use At the centre of the platform is Copious' computer vision engine, IntelOptic, which extracts structured evidence from image-based PDF files. This is combined with what Copious describes as a legal intelligence layer built from more than 14,500 indexed legal datasets. According to Copious, the system can extract disclosure and data subject access request material from image-based PDFs, build chronologies from large evidence bundles, assist with litigation strategy and document drafting, assess the viability of financial claims using indexed Financial Ombudsman Service decisions, and extract information from identity documents and vehicle ownership records. Interest in AI tools for lower-level review work and administrative processes has grown across the legal sector, particularly where firms deal with large volumes of standardised documents. Vendors have focused on tasks such as summarising case files, reviewing bundles, extracting key facts and organising timelines, while law firms have sought to balance efficiency gains with regulatory and professional obligations. Litigated.com is hosted on infrastructure Copious operates directly rather than through third-party cloud AI providers. The platform is aimed at law firms that want to retain control of sensitive client data while introducing automated systems into internal workflows. Origins The product emerged from work carried out with the University of Salford. The original research focused on housing disrepair, where delays in identifying defects and organising evidence can create barriers for tenants pursuing claims or seeking repairs. That background gives the product an unusual starting point in a legal AI market that often begins with general-purpose language models and adapts them for professional use. In this case, Copious entered the sector through image analysis and evidence extraction before extending into legal document review and claims handling. Copious serves legal, financial and professional services clients as a software development consultancy. By introducing a standalone legal intelligence platform under the Litigated.com name, it is seeking to move beyond bespoke development work into software products used directly by firms handling litigation and claims. Copious said the platform is not a law firm and that all outputs require independent review by qualified legal professionals before use in live matters. That caveat reflects a broader issue across the legal technology market, where providers continue to stress that AI tools can assist lawyers but do not replace professional judgment. Operational pressure In comments released alongside the launch, Samantha Holloway outlined the operational problems the company is targeting. "The legal sector still faces major operational challenges around document review, evidence handling and administrative workload. These tasks are intensely time-consuming, and because so much depends on getting the detail right, they cannot be rushed or handled carelessly. Litigated.com was built to help reduce those pressures, using AI designed specifically for real-world legal workflows. "What makes this platform different is that it combines advanced extraction technology with legal intelligence. It does not simply identify information; it helps legal professionals organise and contextualise complex datasets at significant scale. "We have already seen the technology being used commercially across a wide range of legal scenarios, including disclosure review, litigation support and financial claims. The results so far have been impressive, and we believe this is only the beginning of what legal AI can achieve within regulated legal services," said Samantha Holloway, Director, Copious.
