CDS’s eDiscovery solutions have been nominated in five separate categories of the 2025 Relativity Innovation Awards. The Relativity Innovation Awards celebrate the innovative applications, workflows, and customizations Relativity users develop to manage new and diverse data types, disciplines, and matters.
In this series, we will provide an overview of each solution, highlighting the software’s key features and the problems it addresses. This post focuses on the CDS air for Review Workflow. Air for Review Workflow was nominated in the Workflow category, which “celebrates creative problem-solvers who customize Relativity’s default framework to reduce clicks and boost productivity—all without APIs, developers, or custom coding.”
The Challenge: Getting GenAI Buy-in From Legal Teams
Convincing legal teams to embrace generative AI requires more than demonstrating the technology’s potential. Legal teams need confidence that new tools will consistently and reliably enhance their work. A single negative experience can create skepticism and resistance that prevents clients from realizing transformative benefits, damages trust, and sets back adoption for years.
The Solution: CDS aiR for Review Workflow
The CDS aiR for Review Workflow is a sophisticated three-phase methodology that provides clients with a strategic advantage by integrating our deep, practical expertise and proprietary technology. Our approach addresses the combined challenges of complex, varied data and overwhelming document volumes that characterize modern discovery, while maximizing accuracy, effectiveness, and cost efficiency. The key highlights of aiR for Review Workflow include:
- Data reduction using CDS Vision tools to identify and remove non-relevant documents, reducing review volumes by up to 75%.
- Isolation and removal of documents incompatible with AI analysis, such as large files and documents with PII, to speed up the overall process.
- Guided prompt iteration led by the CDS Advisory Services team to optimize AI prompts for legal review protocols.
- Comprehensive statistical validation to ensure high recall rates (90-95%) and identify borderline cases requiring manual review.
- Successful client outcomes demonstrating speed, cost-effectiveness, and confidence in AI capabilities for future deployments.
Generative AI presents unfamiliar territory that demands more thoughtful implementation approaches than traditional e-discovery tools. Success requires bringing clients into the process with the proper preparation and workflows designed for positive outcomes from the very first deployment. Our approach enhances Relativity’s default framework by incorporating our advisory service team’s expertise and guidance, alongside CDS Vision’s proprietary technology to create a broadly applicable, repeatable, defensible, systematic process.
The Takeaway: Successful AI Adoption
The CDS aiR for Review Workflow positions clients for successful AI adoption through careful preparation, guided iterative refinement, and QC integration. Clients using CDS aiR for Review Workflow have experienced extremely positive outcomes. On average, those who were spending between five and eight hours total on subject matter engagement can complete their analysis in 24 to 48 hours with CDS aiR for Review Workflow.
