Demo videos and walkthroughs

1. Quick tips for the tour.

2. This is the LawVu legal workspace. You are looking at "the hub." The hub is a personalized view that gives LawVu users visibility of legal work, quick access to work in progress, and access to your central source of truth for all things legal.

3. Every legal team needs a secure central source of truth, ways to manage workload, and automation to speed up workflows. That's why matter management is a core capability in LawVu. Click "My Matters" for an overview.

4. Here is the matters repository. In LawVu, "matters" are requests, legal matters, advice, projects... all your legal work.

It's easy to sort, organize and filter to get to the view or the specific work you need. To sort by risk level, click Risk

5. Now my list of matters is sorted by the highest risk matters. You can easily save and share views to streamline your workflows, collaborate with others, or for reporting. Click 🧨 High Risk Matters (62) to access a saved view.

6. Let's open a matter to see what else you can do. Click Zestycorp v. AMC Building Ltd.

7. Here are the critical details and structured data for this matter. Many matters are handled in-house only, but if outside counsel are engaged you can include scope management, budget, invoices and secure collaboration and document management.

8. Secure document management is a key feature in LawVu; you can store documents and emails associated with matters worked by your in-house teams and for matters you work on with outside counsel.

Click Files.

9. Documents can be organized into folders; you can even create folder templates to save time and ensure consistency.

10. Emails can be saved as part of the repository too. Click Emails

11. Outlook and Gmail integrations make it easy to capture and store email and attachments. You can sort, filter, tag, organize and make email content accessible to others on your team.

12. Contracts and matters are often related. Click Add contract to associate a contract with this matter. That contract will also become part of our contract repository.

13. Click Relate existing

14. This NDA is in our repository already. Click NDA with Zestycorp to add it to the matter record.

15. The LawVu legal workspace includes a contract repository and life cycle management solution.

Let's have a look at contract lifecycle management capabilities.
Click Contracts.

16. Just like the matters repository, it is easy to sort, filter, organize, share, find and take action on contracts and contract records. You can give access to the business, too.

Click Expiring in... for a saved view of contracts that require action.

17. Information you choose to show about contracts is here in the grid; this is easily customized. Key dates and expirations can be tracked and added to planners, and also trigger notifications. Click the date in the planner: 30

18. Here is the contract. Legal and business users can collaborate via email or in LawVu as contracts move through their lifecycle.

19. Business and legal users can get notifications and review and approve contracts via email, in LawVu, or on the LawVu mobile app. Click approve.

You can create automated approval workflows with a simple workflow builder.

20. LawVu has multiple AI features built in. AI contract data extraction will help you locate, review, and populate data from a contract faster.

Click the highlight button to see the definition of confidential information that AI picked up for us.

21. Here's the clause information. Click on it to quickly locate it in the contract document.

22. This is the clause -- easily found so you can validate, change, or copy/paste.

23. Now let's look at a new capability in the LawVu legal workspace. You can choose to use integrated e-billing and spend management capabilities in the workspace. Hover on Spend.

24. Centralizing and digitizing invoices from outside counsel streamlines workflows and creates a valuable data set for reporting, budgeting, and controlling spend. To see more, click invoices

25. You can centralize information about the firms and LSPs you work with, as well as upload invoices. Better yet, outside counsel and LSPs can easily upload invoices to LawVu for you! Click Pending invoices to see how to review and approval works.

26. This invoice needs approval.

You can set up automated invoice approval routing with an easy-to-use workflow builder to save time and ensure compliance with company policy. Invoice approval works on the LawVu mobile app too!

27. Click Approve to move on.

28. This invoice is now approved and part of our reporting data set.

A feature called AI powered invoice extraction will auto-populate key data fields to save time on data entry and minimize the risk of errors.

29. You can also create a knowledge base for legal and the wider business, with varying levels of secure permission-based access. Click the knowledge icon to check it out.

30. You can create articles, store and give access to templates, add self-service FAQs, and even create self-service contract automation workflows.

Click on the Policy and Compliance Hub.

31. Here is an example of a compliance article in our knowledgebase. It's easy to draft, post, edit and tag articles for use by the legal team or give access to business users via a legal front door.

32. Easy-to-use dashboards and reports are important for modern legal teams, and they are available out of the box in the LawVu legal workspace. Click Reports to check them out.

43. It's easy to customize and brand the portal with a drag and drop editor. To see what our portal looks like, click Preview

1. LawVu has out of the box reports and dashboards for all of the capabilities in the legal workspace: matters (all legal matters, projects, advice and other work being done for the business); contract data from the integrated CLM; and outside spend.

2. The GC dashboard combines key metrics from across the workspace in one dashboard. Let's explore the interactive dashboard and consider some ways to use the data along the way.

Click the left arrow to collapse the reporting pane.

3. Data is collected constantly as your team manages work in LawVu. It's important you can easily understand your data - so if you need more information you can click here and get to a useful explanation.

4. This is the help article with an overview, key metrics explained, and tips and tricks to use the dashboard to get more insights. 24/7 support is always available in the chat in the lower right, too.

5. The GC dashboard is designed to make regular reporting and spotting trends easy. By default, it shows current year- to-date data. You may want to interrogate or report on a different timeframe. Click Current Year to change the year.

6. Click 2023

7. The entire dashboard has changed to show 2023 data. Key metrics about the volume of work and your spend with outside counsel are here. They are automatically compared to the previous time period (in this case 2022) so you can see trends.

8. You might want to review or report on trends and workload quarterly for your board or leadership team.

Click Quarterly View to change the dashboard.

9. This shows current quarter data, and comparisons to the previous quarter.

So far this quarter we have started 85 matters -- or pieces of legal work. Almost 70% are with outside counsel.
Should we upskill to do more work in-house? Adjust budget?

10. You can click Download page to generate a shareable .pdf of your report. The .pdf will be filtered, like your dashboard, so you can share data about your selected time period or specific insights. Or you can regularly share the entire dashboard.

11. Click Yearly View to get back to the yearly view and we'll explore a little more.

12. This section is a workload breakdown for matters and contracts. We see the most common types of work this year, and their volume last year.

This shows trends we can use to plan or communicate alignment with strategy.

13. A few interactions with the dashboard can reveal useful insights.

Click Prev to see what the most common work types were last year.

14. Now we can see that Advice, Contract Reviews and New Hire work were most common last year. Is there a data story here - for example, alignment with strategic initiative or supporting an acquisition? Are more people requesting legal advice now?

15. Sometimes, a data point overwhelms the graph or is not useful for purpose. For example, we know that Advice is always a top matter type. Right click Advice to remove it, so we can dig in to the other types of work our team is handling.

16. Click Exclude

17. The dashboard is filtered and "advice" is removed, just like that! We can see that Contract Reviews, New Hires, and Contract Negotiations topped the list.

18. This visualization communicates about the contracts in our repository - and a lot of them are NDAs. Can we automate them and save legal team time?

Now Right click NDA.

19. Click Exclude to take them out of our view so we can dig deeper into the other contracts we're working on for the business.

20. Now let's look at urgent, high risk and high complexity work. You can set these fields and definitions in LawVu at implementation.
Right click on the 5 high risk (level 5) matters.

21. Click Drill through to get the detail of those matters if you'd like to talk through them with your team, take action, or provide an update on them to the leadership team or board.

22. These are the high risk matters we have in flight. We can get more detail or ask for updates by going to the full record in LawVu, directly from this report click. Scroll up and click the arrow return to the full dashboard.

23. Measuring and communicating about cycle times can be useful for SLAs, measuring the outcomes of strategic initiatives or taking actions across the business. These graphs show key cycle time metrics.

24. Scroll down and click sales and service to get insights on how long this particular type of work is taking.

25. Hover to see that Sales and Service work is taking an average of 65 days to complete. That may be expected. Or it may be an improvement we want to talk about. Or, it may signal an opportunity to redistribute work or hire for a special skill set.

26. Scroll to see the spend section of the dashboard.

27. We can see we have spent a lot this year on Property and Human Resources - and we can communicate the reason behind that when we share this data, and speak to the outcomes or alignment with business strategy. Hover on Property.

28. Here you could choose to drill through to more detail.

29. Now let's dig into the work we're doing with Choice Legal since they are the firm we have the most outside spend with. Hover on Choice Legal to see the summary of our work and payments to them.

30. Hover Drill through

31. Click Invoice Detail

32. These are the invoices we have from Choice Legal. Some need review and approval. Should we shift budget? Plan for a conversation with them? Review our outstanding invoices? There may be useful insights and actions. Scroll up and click the arrow.

33. The final section of the dashbaord shows how LawVu is being used and adopted. Scroll down and with your mouse, hover Records Created to see how many business users are requesting legal advice through the LawVu legal portal. Usage has grown!
