ThoughtRiver, the legal AI contract pre-screening pioneer, has announced that its core platform, which standardises the interpretation and review of legal contracts to increase sales velocity, is to be used by PwC in the firm’s range of ‘NewLaw’ client services technology. The move follows a period of rapid expansion of the Big Four firm’s NewLaw team – see feature in Artificial Lawyer.

The Big Four accounting and consulting giant has been growing its legal arm over the past few years with the help of AI technology. Following a competitive tender process and discussions over a period of 18 months, the professional services firm chose ThoughtRiver’s platform to power its document pre-screening offering tailored for its global corporate customer base.

ThoughtRiver’s AI-driven pre-screening platform will power a range of services being offered to PwC clients, initially in the field of contract screening and review.

We’re looking to help PwC build a deep institutional knowledge of transactions into the ThoughtRiver platform in order to deliver an advanced level of service to their clients.
