Ehsan's Growth Take
Relativity is to e-discovery what Salesforce is to CRM: the platform everyone benchmarks against. Their AI (aiR for Review) genuinely transforms document review economics. A case with 1 million documents that would take 6 months of manual review takes 6 weeks with active learning. The methodology is defensible in court, which is the only metric that matters in litigation technology.
