Insight in Hours: How HaystackID’s New AI Tool Could Change Legal Case Assessment

ComplexDiscovery Staff

In the high-pressure world of litigation and investigations, legal professionals often face a sobering reality: the most valuable insights in a case are buried deep in data—and surfacing them can take weeks.

HaystackID is betting that doesn’t have to be the case anymore.

The company has launched Core Intelligence AI Case Insight™, a generative AI-powered matter intelligence engine designed to deliver early, actionable understanding of legal and investigative matters. Rather than relying on time-consuming traditional workflows, Case Insight promises to compress analysis into days, helping teams map case data with more precision and speed.

Announced Tuesday and now available for deployment, the platform is part of HaystackID’s growing Core Intelligence AI™ portfolio and is being showcased this week at Legalweek 2025 in New York.

Surfacing the Unknown

Unlike conventional AI tools that focus on responsiveness and keyword matching, Case Insight is designed to detect unknowns—subtle themes, hidden relationships, and critical issues that can shift a case’s trajectory. It uses generative AI to analyze documents in real time, generating context-aware summaries, issue classifications, and search terms that evolve dynamically with the case.

At the outset of a matter, Case Insight delivers a structured memo detailing the legal issues relevant to the dataset, explains their impact, highlights key documents, and flags potential areas of risk. This is all built around a single, coherent case narrative—avoiding the need for repeated prompt iterations.

“Core Intelligence AI Case Insight is not just another AI-powered tool—it is a strategic intelligence engine designed to empower legal teams from the outset of a case,” said Esther Birnbaum, Executive Vice President of Legal Data Intelligence at HaystackID. “By integrating generative AI with expert oversight, professionals can move beyond document review and toward proactive case assessment, surfacing key insights faster and with greater precision. This offering is a game-changer for legal teams navigating complex investigations and litigation.”

Built for Strategy, Not Just Speed

HaystackID developed the solution in collaboration with eDiscovery AI, blending generative AI capabilities with matter-specific intelligence and oversight. The tool’s distinguishing trait is its ability to interpret—not just analyze—data.

“The collaboration between eDiscovery AI and HaystackID is redefining how AI is applied in discovery and investigations,” said Jim Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer at eDiscovery AI. “Core Intelligence AI Case Insight goes beyond data analysis—it interprets context, identifies hidden relationships, and delivers intelligence that allows legal teams to take decisive action with confidence. This innovation sets a new standard for AI-driven matter assessment.”

Legal professionals can use Case Insight to triage data sets, prioritize custodians, identify privilege, and streamline document review preparation. In regulatory environments, it helps accelerate DSAR reviews, respond to productions, and assess compliance exposures—reducing the time and manual effort typically required for such tasks.

Smarter, Not Just Faster

One of the platform’s headline features is its ability to produce recall rates above 90% through contextual analysis. This means more relevant documents are identified with fewer manual touches—while also improving defensibility.

“The adoption of AI within the legal industry is rapidly accelerating, and innovative solutions like Core Intelligence AI Case Insight demonstrate the power of generative AI in driving strategic decision-making and optimizing legal workflows,” said Ryan O’Leary, Research Director for Privacy and Legal Technology at IDC. “By incorporating advanced AI-driven intelligence into case analysis, legal teams can enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve defensibility—critical advantages in today’s evolving regulatory and litigation environment.”

And unlike other AI tools that require extensive training, Case Insight adapts to each case as it evolves. It builds intelligence around the narrative rather than static keyword sets—allowing teams to iterate rapidly, but with direction and insight from the outset.

Deployment Flexibility and Market Position

The solution is now available for both Relativity Server and SaaS environments, enabling flexible integration into existing workflows and tool stacks.

HaystackID is positioning Case Insight not only as an upgrade in technology—but as a strategic shift in how legal and investigative teams begin cases.

In fast-paced matters where first impressions of the data can shape overall strategy, the ability to understand the landscape early can be a deciding factor.

Back to the Surface

Legal teams are often asked to “dive deep” into data—but that depth can cost time and clarity. With Case Insight, HaystackID flips the script: What if the most valuable insights didn’t have to be buried at all?

By bringing those insights to the surface early—and with context—Case Insight offers legal professionals a clearer view of their case from day one.
