ROSS intelligence, based on IBM’s Watson platform, announced on May 5th that BakerHostetler has agreed to license ROSS Intelligence’s artificial intelligence legal research product, ROSS. BakerHostetler will license ROSS for use in its Bankruptcy, Restructuring and Creditors’ Rights team.
With the support of Watson’s cognitive computing and natural language processing capabilities, lawyers ask ROSS their research question in natural language, as they would a person, then ROSS reads through the law, gathers evidence, draws inferences and returns highly relevant, evidence-based candidate answers. ROSS also monitors the law around the clock to notify users of new court decisions that can affect a case. The program continually learns from the lawyers who use it to bring back better results each time.
