PwC's Legal Services Enter New Era with AI Platform from Harvey

PwC, a leading professional services firm, has formed a global partnership with AI startup Harvey, providing PwC’s Legal Business Solutions professionals exclusive access to the game-changing AI platform. The Harvey platform uses natural language processing, machine learning and data analytics to automate and enhance various aspects of legal work. Harvey will help generate insights and recommendations based on large volumes of data, delivering richer information that will enable PwC professionals to identify solutions faster. The strategic alliance builds on PwC’s ability to bring human-led and tech-enabled solutions to clients, delivering on its global strategy, The New Equation.

PwC's access to the technology will be used to support many of PwC's global clients, with the ability to customise the product for specific use cases. Harvey will give PwC's professionals across 100+ countries access to leading generative AI technology, enhancing the ability of PwC's network of more than 4,000 legal professionals to deliver human-led and technology-enabled legal solutions in a range of areas, including contract analysis, regulatory compliance, claims management, due diligence and broader legal advisory and legal consulting services.

The partnership will not use AI to provide legal advice to clients or replace lawyers, but will instead provide insights, research and analysis to enhance the service provided by PwC's legal professionals.
