> AI pre-classifies documents by responsiveness, privilege, and hot-doc signal in iManage, leaving associates to review only the 15% that actually need judgment — review cost drops 60%.

## The Problem

First-pass review of M&A / Corporate Transactions discovery docs in iManage is billed at associate rates but commoditized — it's a margin-killer the client resents paying for.

## What We Build in Datasite

AI pre-classifies documents by responsiveness, privilege, and hot-doc signal in iManage, leaving associates to review only the 15% that actually need judgment — review cost drops 60%. Purpose-built for teams running Datasite — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## Datasite Integration Approach

1. **Audit your Datasite configuration.** We map the specific Datasite objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your m&a / corporate transactions practice.
2. **Build on the Datasite API or agent.** Integration happens inside Datasite — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Datasite with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
