Legal technology solutions and enterprise legal services business Consilio has unveiled Aurora – a digital enterprise platform aiming to transform how legal teams manage legal data.
Earlier this year, research from Consilio found that nearly one in two (48 per cent) legal, risk and compliance professionals rank overwhelming work volume as the biggest challenge they face. The same research revealed the challenges pertaining to the growth and complexity of data and the navigation of multijurisdictional work that are most concerning to corporate lawyers at present.
Now, the business has unveiled Aurora, a “transformative” solution that eliminates forced platform choices while enabling unified control and enhanced data visibility across e-discovery matters.
Aurora will, Consilio outlined in a statement, address workload challenges by providing a comprehensive solution that sits upstream of review platforms, enabling legal teams to leverage the best review and legal productivity tools for each matter while maintaining portfolio-wide visibility and control.
Its key features include a reusable data repository that transforms scattered information into a unified, searchable knowledge base; a portal with complete transparency and control across all review platforms and matters, with real-time visibility and powerful analytics; and an AI solutions suite.
The news follows the business’s opening of two new data centres Down Under (in Sydney and Melbourne) in November as part of the expansion of its service offering in Australia. It also follows its launching of a new document review solution in September and its signing of a strategic partnership with Nuix in May.
Consilio president Meredith Kildow said: “For too long, legal teams have faced an impossible choice between standardisation requirements that limit flexibility or fragmentation and reduce efficiency.
“This false dilemma for legal departments is eliminated by Aurora. Our new digital enterprise platform gives clients complete visibility into their portfolio of projects, unifies all their legal services work in one place, and provides a powerful data repository they can explore with sophisticated early case intelligence and AI capabilities.
“This represents a fundamental shift in how legal teams interact with their data and technology stack, unlocking value for the organisation as a whole.”
Michael Pontrelli, the client experience officer at Consilio, added that he consistently hears about the frustrations caused by data trapped in disparate platforms and repositories.
“Aurora changes that paradigm completely,” he said.
“By providing a single point of control and visibility across their entire portfolio, legal teams can track the progress of all matters, manage resources efficiently, and access powerful cross-project insights from one intuitive interface.
“This democratises access to the immense scale and sophistication of data processing that was previously only available through bespoke engagements. We’re providing a new blueprint for legal data management that prioritises freedom, control, and success.”
Consilio chief technology and innovation officer Raj Chandrasekar said: “We understand the critical importance of data security, sovereignty, and cost predictability. Aurora’s architecture leverages our highly scalable private cloud infrastructure, giving clients the confidence of enterprise-grade protection without the unpredictable costs of public cloud services.
“At the heart of Aurora is our proprietary DataCore technology – the culmination of over a decade of continuous refinement – which actively processes, enriches, and structures data, transforming raw information into a powerful asset primed for advanced analysis and reuse.”
Pontrelli said: “With Aurora, we’re not just giving clients a new platform – we’re providing a new paradigm for legal data management that prioritises freedom, control, and success.
“It’s about transforming your legal enterprise to spend less time wrestling with data and more time extracting valuable insights.”
Aurora is currently available to select Consilio clients and will have general availability in the coming months.
