Nuix and Lineal Announce Strategic Partnership Featuring Nuix Neo AI
LONDON, UK — JANUARY 30, 2026 — a global leader in data processing, intelligence, and investigation technology, and Lineal, a leading provider of legal technology and managed review services, today announced a strategic partnership centered on deploying Nuix Neo, the next-generation data intelligence platform, within Lineal’s global service ecosystem.
The collaboration will enable Lineal to harness Nuix Neo’s full suite of AI-powered processing, analytics, and automation tools, further enhancing their already impressive arsenal of technology and people. The result: faster insights, cleaner data, and dramatically reduced waste across the eDiscovery and data governance lifecycle.
Redefining the Front End of Discovery
By combining Lineal’s industry-leading managed services and review expertise with Nuix Neo’s powerful AI engine, clients will be able to identify key patterns, entities, and anomalies earlier—reducing downstream review costs and improving strategic decision-making across investigations, compliance, and litigation.
“Instead of waiting until the review phase, we’re bringing intelligence to the very beginning of the workflow—when data first enters the system. That’s where Nuix Neo gives us a transformative advantage.” said Nathan Attoe, COO of Lineal.
Technology Meets Service: A Model for the Future
Nuix Neo, launched globally earlier this year, unites next-generation scalability, AI-driven automation, and unified data intelligence across governance, eDiscovery, and compliance workflows. Integrated into Lineal’s platform, it enables:
- AI-enhanced early data assessment (EDA) for faster identification of relevance and risk.
- Automated classification and entity extraction at ingestion, reducing manual effort downstream.
- Cross-matter data intelligence, leveraging prior analyses to prevent redundant processing.
- Improved accuracy and transparency, supporting defensibility and regulatory compliance.
“Nuix Neo allows us process smarter, not bigger—extracting more meaning from data while eliminating wasteful repetition. For our clients, that means faster answers, lower costs, and more confident outcomes,” said Major Baisden, CEO of Lineal.
“This is the next evolution of AI in data processing,” said John Ruthven, Interim CEO of Nuix. “Our partnership with Lineal demonstrates how the Nuix empowers service providers to deliver extraordinary efficiency, insight, and trust at scale.”
A Partnership for an Industry in Transition
As AI continues to transform the legal and investigative technology landscape, the Nuix-Lineal partnership signals a major shift in how organizations will manage, understand, and act on data in the years ahead.
“Clients want innovative solutions that accelerate decision-making without compromising accuracy or governance,” said Luke Aaron, VP Sales UK&I. “It has been a pleasure to work with Lineal, and to watch them grow into the industry force they are today. Giving their great people the power of AI within Nuix Neo, is going to provide value for their customers that was unimaginable just a few years ago.”
By combining Nuix’s innovation in intelligent data processing with Lineal’s global delivery expertise, the companies are setting a new benchmark for performance, sustainability, and trust in digital investigations and discovery.
“I believe in particular that the flexibility and extensibility afforded by Nuix Neo to ‘BYOAI’ is going to provide ourselves and our customers with unparalleled control of how we leverage AI as an accelerator of insight, and not an amplifier of waste.”, added Nathan Attoe, COO Lineal.
