Curvestone news - Curvestone launches No-Code AI Workflows, with Walker Morris as a Key User

SUMMARY

  • Curvestone, a leading AI and automation service provider, announced the launch of Workflows, a powerful new module for its WorkflowGPT platform set to transform how law firms leverage AI.
  • Curvestone is a pioneering technical innovation service provider for legal and professional services companies.

This innovation directly addresses the legal industry's struggle to realise returns on AI investments and alleviates the growing fatigue from evaluating numerous point solutions, with law firm Walker Morris among the first adopters.

WorkflowGPT tackles two major pain points in legal AI adoption: the gap between promise and performance, and the overwhelming array of narrowly-focused point solutions. Its new Workflows feature allows law firms to create custom AI processes without coding, using pre-trained 'bricks' for specific legal tasks.

This no-code, 'building block' approach enables firms to rapidly deploy AI solutions across practice areas that address complex, large-scale legal work, moving beyond simple chatbots and single-purpose tools to deliver tangible ROI. Lawyers (and clients) can then access these tailored AI workflows via a simple URL, combining AI efficiency with their legal expertise.

Walker Morris has been working closely with Curvestone to leverage Workflows to transform their service agreement review process. The firm has encoded their legal expertise into a structured set of questions that can be automatically applied to client contracts.

When reviewing service agreements, Workflows analyses the documents against the firm's established playbook, providing detailed answers with relevant extracts and in-context references. This automation has dramatically reduced the time taken to review service agreements, while maintaining the high standards of analysis their clients expect.

The system not only identifies the presence or absence of key clauses but also provides detailed justifications for its findings, allowing lawyers to quickly verify the analysis and provide more timely advice to clients.

Dawid Robert Kotur, CEO of Curvestone said, "The legal industry has reached an inflection point with AI adoption, While firms have been experimenting with AI assistants, the real breakthrough comes with the ability to create customisable, no-code AI processes. Workflows allows law firms to embed AI deeply into their core operations and extend its benefits directly to clients, and avoid the pitfalls of implementing multiple disconnected AI tools. We're moving beyond simple lawyer productivity tools to reshaping how legal services are delivered, with verifiable results that maintain the high standards of accuracy and trust expected in legal work.”

Kevan Mahoney, Head of Innovation and Legal Tech Delivery at Walker Morris said, "WorkflowGPT's new Workflows module is a game-changer for how we approach AI in our firm, We've been testing its capabilities, and the potential is really exciting. As our lawyers became more familiar with AI, we realised that a simple chat interface wasn't enough to support them anymore. What sets this apart is the ability to embed our firm's expertise and playbook directly into the tool - something that's been missing from out-of-the-box solutions. Our lawyers can now access this knowledge through a simple interface, enabling them to analyse complex documents consistently and at scale. The ability to combine our legal expertise with powerful AI verification capabilities is exactly what we've been waiting for in the legal tech space."

Sally Mewies, Partner and Head of Technology and Digital at Walker Morris, says: “As a firm, we are constantly trying to find technical solutions to help our team perform and provide cost-effective solutions to our clients. We know there is huge potential within AI and emerging tech to transform the way we do certain tasks, such as contract review, and Curvestone have been an invaluable partner, developing this safe, secure private AI environment for use in the legal world. Innovation and smart uses of technology will drive improvement for us at Walker Morris and our clients. As one of the earliest adopters of this technology we are hugely excited to see the outcomes of the first phase of work and understand how it could play a role in our future.”

WorkflowGPT also offers a range of capabilities tailored for legal work. The platform enables rapid data extraction from extensive legal documents, facilitates interactive document Q&A with precise, referenced answers, and automates document comparison without manual redlining. It also provides contract risk detection, complete with severity levels and mitigation suggestions.

All data is segregated and stored in a secure Azure environment with full lifecycle management. Client data belongs solely to them and is never used for training the models.

Walker Morris' Technology and Digital team specialises in edge technology (including Artificial Intelligence and blockchain) and frequently advises on the IP implications of these exciting new technologies. The team also advises clients on contracts and licences and dispute resolution.
