Litera Compare: Accurate & Trustworthy Redlines for Global Law Firms
If you’re new to Litera, you may not know that we have a 20+-year history delivering world-class document comparison technology to law firms worldwide.
Litera Represents More Than a Collection of Brands
From its inception, Litera has consistently strived to build top-tier solutions while strategically acquiring companies that complement our vision of providing holistic and simplified user experiences. Initially, our comparison tool was ChangePro, designed to address the needs of lawyers comparing lengthy and complex documents. In 2019, we acquired Workshare, inheriting Workshare Compare, and in 2020, we acquired DocsCorp, inheriting compareDocs.
These strategic acquisitions enhanced our product portfolio. However, offering more than three comparison tools simultaneously led to confusion among our customers and resource drain as we continually aimed to innovate and maintain these solutions.
To address these challenges, we decided to consolidate the most popular features from all our comparison tools to create Litera Compare. This consolidation process involved close collaboration with our customers to understand their preferred workflows and functionalities across the three comparison tools. As a result of our efforts, Litera Compare has become an integral part of day-to-day operations for 99% of Am Law 100 firms and numerous highly ranked global law firms and legal teams, from solo practices to large enterprises. In October 2023 alone, over 8 million documents were analyzed using Litera Compare.
