This means that Luminance is priced so that firms of every size can benefit from this new generation of AI technology with organizations being charged only for what they use.

Company Description:

ThoughtRiver is a legal-tech company with offices in London, Cambridge & Singapore. ThoughtRiver simplifies contracting through digitisation using its proprietary contract description framework, Lexible.

ThoughtRiver’s technology supports automated contract summarisation, risk assessment and insight extraction capabilities using advanced AI and NLP technology.

The business was founded in early 2015 following 3 years of early conceptual development of Lexible and currently has a team of 20 employees. With experience as a City law firm partner and latterly a senior corporate executive, founder Tim Pullan started the company as a direct result of his first-hand experience of the friction caused by contracting processes. ThoughtRiver worked closely with senior NLP and machine learning experts at Cambridge University to create the proprietary Fathom Contextual Interpretation EngineTM that enables Lexible datapoints to be automatically identified in contracts.

What is your core product’s key selling point?

ThoughtRiver Review addresses a fundamental problem: you don’t know whether you need to read a contract without reading it. The entire initial contract assessment process is automated by leveraging Natural Language Processing (NLP) capabilities and adding a sophisticated digital risk playbook capability based on Lexible datapoints. We do not simply surface relevant clauses but answer detailed questions about contracts to simulate legal assessment.

Review interprets contracts to provide an understanding of risk and opportunity. Risk includes issues such as liability, indemnities etc (i.e. your top ten negotiated issues) but also regulatory issues such as GDPR, Revenue Recognition, Insurance Liability etc. We also work with clients to help them understand commercial opportunities within their contracts e.g. ability to review pricing or transfer assets to third parties.
