NetDocuments today announced ndConnect, a new interoperability program designed to integrate third-party AI solutions directly into its document management system, starting with partnerships with legal AI vendors Harvey and Legora.<\/p>\n
The company says that ndConnect addresses a growing need among legal professionals to use various AI tools while maintaining security and governance standards within their primary document management platform.<\/p>\n
Rather than requiring users to download files or work outside their established systems, the integration allows AI-generated work to be saved back to its original location within NetDocuments.<\/p>\n
\u201cndConnect extends our unique document and AI capabilities to third-party AI vendors, while keeping the full protection, findability, and productivity of their foundational platform,\u201d said Dan Hauck, chief product officer at NetDocuments.<\/p>\n
The product maintains NetDocuments\u2019 existing security framework, with all integrations respecting user authentication and access controls at the document level. According to the company, this ensures that third-party AI interactions maintain the same security and auditability standards as native NetDocuments functions.<\/p>\n
During a media briefing, CEO Josh Baxter said that the program follows a core principle of keeping \u201ceverything securely anchored in the system of record.\u201d This approach eliminates what the company identifies as common security risks associated with downloading files for external AI processing.<\/p>\n
The integration supports various use cases including document summarization, contract review, and analysis, with AI-generated outputs automatically saved back to the appropriate locations within the DMS.<\/p>\n
NetDocuments built ndConnect on what it describes as a developer-friendly architecture, designed to support both basic document transfer use cases and more complex workflows. The company indicates this foundation will allow for expanded functionality over time.<\/p>\n
Beyond the initial partnerships with Harvey and Legora, NetDocuments expects to add additional AI vendors to the program. Baxter noted during the briefing that the company is \u201cactively talking to and working with some additional players in the space\u201d and anticipates bringing \u201cmany of the most important AI vendors in legal tech\u201d to the platform.<\/p>\n
The launch represents NetDocuments\u2019 broader platform strategy to create what Baxter described as \u201ca pathway for customers and partners to work together on AI-powered use cases that are impactful, secure, and scalable.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
