Case Snapshot

A global bank faced simultaneous regulatory inquiries in the U.S. and Asia, with data spanning email, Bloomberg chat, Teams, and structured trade records.

Using Lineal’s inverted AI approach, 65% of the data was defensibly reduced in under two weeks, giving outside counsel the insight to brief regulators with confidence. The matter was completed under a fixed-fee review model, aligning spend with the bank’s forecast and eliminating billing surprises.

The result:
