Introducing Everlaw^AI Assistant for Government Agencies

Generative AI has been helping legal teams across the private sector transform ediscovery workflows. With Everlaw^AI Assistant, legal professionals at law firms and corporate in-house departments have used GenAI-powered review, drafting and coding tools to summarize large document sets, surface key facts, and craft stronger narratives more efficiently than ever before. 

Now this new technology is coming to public sector customers. Everlaw plans to receive its FedRAMP authorization next month, enabling federal, state, and local agencies to securely adopt Everlaw^AI Assistant in their litigation, investigations, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), and other workflows.

With FedRAMP authorization for Everlaw^AI Assistant, Everlaw will be the first ediscovery provider to have its full portfolio of GenAI features authorized for the public sector.

Why FedRAMP Matters

FedRAMP (the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program) establishes a standardized, government-wide approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud technology. It’s a rigorous process with numerous checks and audits designed to ensure that technology providers meet the highest benchmarks for confidentiality and integrity with government data.

Numerous U.S. government agencies, including U.S. attorneys’ offices, rely on the cloud-native Everlaw platform, which is already FedRAMP and GovRAMP authorized. Extending this authorization to Everlaw^AI Assistant means that our GenAI features will be held to the same robust security controls that are tested, verified, and continuously monitored by independent third-party assessment organizations.

With full FedRAMP authorization for our GenAI features, government agencies will be able to confidently use Everlaw^AI Assistant in environments where sensitive case information, privileged communications, and personally identifiable information must be safeguarded at all times. From high-stakes litigation to FOIA requests, public sector legal teams will be able to leverage cutting-edge AI capabilities while meeting the compliance and security requirements mandated for today’s government operations.
