Why Thomson Reuters AI?

Our AI for Justice Legal Aid program offers both a Legal Innovators Incubator, where we partner with select organizations to develop use cases maximizing the benefits of Thomson Reuters CoCounsel, our GenAI legal assistant, and a deeply subsidized pricing structure for legal nonprofits, to make this technology as accessible as possible to everyone.

“The most powerful tech innovation in at least a generation, generative AI has the potential to bring about a more efficient, effective, and equitable justice system for everyone. As tech leaders, we at Thomson Reuters have the opportunity and responsibility to develop game-changing solutions—like CoCounsel, our GenAI legal assistant—that put this power safely in the hands of legal professionals, and to ensure legal aid organizations can also access and effectively use it.”
