Early case assessment (ECA) is one of the most critical components of any investigation or litigation—what you find (or don’t find) during ECA can determine your strategy for the matter and your approach to eDiscovery. Lighthouse data reduction services use ECA workflows and purpose-built analytic and search technology powered by unique expertise to target only the most relevant data for your review.

Historically-Informed Early Document Insights
When you use Lighthouse AI across multiple matters (or your entire portfolio), your classifiers can do a precursory analysis of your dataset. Get early insights on the types of documents likely contained in the matter to support review strategy. Examples of AI insights include:
- Number of likely privileged documents
- Amount of likely PII
- Overlap with other matters that have already been coded
- Which custodians have the most privilege/confidential documents
Early Case Document Assessment
Quickly evaluate the feasibility, impact, and risk of your case. Early intelligence from linguistic analysis and powerful technology gives you the insights necessary for business-critical decisions in any legal matter. By combining cutting-edge tools with expert search strategies, we transform ECA from probable trends to a narrative with supporting documents.
