Legal hold & eDiscovery

When litigation hits, be ready in minutes — not weeks.

The moment a matter lands, Lena needs to freeze the right documents everywhere, prove nothing was destroyed, then search and export under governance. Across a dozen systems, by hand, that’s weeks.

The reality today

Holds that don’t actually hold

Leaky holds

A hold in one system doesn’t stop disposition in another.

Slow collection

Custodian-by-custodian, system-by-system collection takes weeks.

Unprovable preservation

You can’t show, on demand, that nothing under hold was touched.

Holds, approvals, and the preservation trail in one place

Governance

Holds, approvals, and a ledger that can't be edited

Retention, legal holds, and approvals live in one place — destructive actions always route to a human. Behind it sits a hash-chained, append-only audit ledger: every ingest, redaction, and disposition is recorded, and any attempt to edit history breaks the chain.

Common questions

Does a hold span every system?

Yes. Holds match documents across all connected systems and block disposition everywhere.

Can we prove nothing was destroyed?

The hash-chained ledger records preservation and any attempted disposition, so it’s provable.
