Lineal Announces New Relativity aiR for Case Strategy Offering

 

The solution empowers lawyers and litigation professionals to construct the story of their case or investigation with greater speed, confidence and collaboration

 

KANSAS CITY, MO – FEBRUARY 19, 2026 – Lineal, a global provider of eDiscovery, managed services, and legal technology, today announced that it is expanding its AI offerings with the addition of Relativity aiR for Case Strategy. The generative AI-powered case intelligence solution makes it faster and simpler to develop case narratives, enabling users to auto-extract facts, visualize fact chronologies, accelerate deposition preparation and create document, witness, and transcript summaries.

“Relativity aiR for Case Strategy meaningfully changes how case teams prepare for depositions and trial,” said Brian Stempel, Head of Customer Advocacy at Lineal. “It is used during the phase of matters where attorneys can really benefit from asking natural language questions of highly categorized data—data that has detailed context built off of the discovery review phase. With aiR for Case Strategy, Relativity has moved beyond traditional discovery closure tasks. Our clients that have adopted aiR for Case Strategy have seen immediate positive results and are incorporating it into their ongoing litigation workflows—resulting in more informed, efficient and confident preparation.”

aiR for Case Strategy helps establish a clear factual foundation by revealing key events, illuminating gaps in evidence and highlighting the relationships among people, documents and testimony. For Lineal, this solution reinforces its broader approach focused on data reuse, workflow continuity and the defensible application of AI across the litigation lifecycle. By helping lawyers move beyond discovery obligations into strategic preparation, Lineal enables clients to reduce rework, improve alignment and prepare more effectively for high-stakes litigation.

Within RelativityOne, aiR for Case Strategy serves as a centralized hub, enabling teams to work from a shared repository of key case intelligence and move directly from document review into crafting their strategic case story, preparing for investigations, witness examinations, depositions and trial all within one secure environment. This approach allows Lineal to deliver additional functionality to clients while maximizing the value of existing work product, without requiring users to move between solutions.

For Lineal clients, aiR for Case Strategy transforms reviewed data in RelativityOne into actionable case intelligence—without starting over or importing data into another tool. Attorneys can build fact chronologies, prepare deposition outlines and uncover witness connections directly from categorized review data. The result is a faster, more organized path from production close to trial-ready preparation, with the transparency and defensibility that high-stakes matters require.

“Lineal is truly dedicated to helping its clients navigate the most complex data challenges of today,” said Laurie Usewicz, Chief Partner Officer at Relativity. “As a trusted partner for more than a decade, we’re thrilled to see Lineal equipping legal teams with advanced tools that enhance the entire legal workflow—from discovery to trial—so teams can work smarter and focus on successful outcomes.”

As a long-standing partner and recipient of several competencies from Relativity—including Financial Services, Life Sciences and Pharmaceutical Industry Competencies—Lineal works closely with law firms and corporate legal teams to deploy RelativityOne capabilities in complex, global matters. Lineal’s active use of aiR for Case Strategy reflects its ongoing commitment to practical, defensible AI adoption that delivers measurable outcomes for clients.

aiR for Case Strategy is part of Relativity’s suite of fit-for-purpose generative AI solutions, Relativity aiR, built securely in RelativityOne. Each aiR solution is developed with privacy, security and transparency at its core. aiR solutions provide in-depth explanations, allowing users to fully understand recommendations so they can validate, defend and trust results.
