Legaltech giant Harvey is partnering with online arbitration intelligence platform Jus Mundi to make the latter’s agentic AI
research assistant Jus AI accessible within Harvey’s platform.
The collaboration with Paris-based Jus Mundi allows lawyers handling international arbitration and cross-border disputes to use Jus AI’s legal research and drafting capabilities without leaving Harvey. It will be available in its Assistant, Agents, Vault and Workflows offerings.
Lawyers can ask Jus AI to research relevant arbitration awards, treaties and institutional rules, and test a client’s legal argument against previous arbitration decisions, along with comparing research with case documents stored in Harvey Vault.
John Haddock, chief business officer at Harvey, said: “Our clients want the deepest domain expertise inside the platform where they manage their most important matters.
“Jus Mundi is the authority in international arbitration, which made them an obvious partner. Lawyers no longer have to leave their workspace to reach specialist arbitration research. They get it alongside their own matter context in Harvey.”
Jean-Rémi de Maistre, CEO and co-founder of Jus Mundi, said that Jus AI was built to imitate the rationale of international arbitration lawyers and their decision making.
He said that Jus AI’s proprietary model “draws on the world’s most comprehensive arbitration database, including content from leading arbitral institutions and publishers, with every answer traceable to its source”.
He added: “That’s why the best arbitration teams rely on it. With Harvey, that intelligence now reaches the matter itself, at the world’s most sophisticated firms.”
Mutual Harvey and Jus Mundi clients will be able to access Jus AI in Harvey’s platform by the end of this year, at no additional cost.
Back in March, Jus Mundi also agreed a similar strategic partnership with Harvey’s legaltech rival Legora to enable users to access Jus AI within Legora’s platform.
Last week, Harvey announced another partnership with a trio of Italian legal publishers, expanding its Italian legal data coverage.
The three publishing houses – Il Foro Italiano, which was founded in 1876; Simone; and digital publisher Juranet – supply specialist legal content that Harvey will integrate into its AI tools, enabling users to research Italian law.
This followed Harvey’s acquisition of AI-powered sales assistant platform Aida last month, marking its fifth purchase this year.
Aida is a virtual assistant for salespeople and complements Harvey’s tech by recording meeting details, updating customer relationship management systems and retaining client information.
