Our direct collaboration with OpenAI allows us to accelerate this innovation.”
“We're thrilled to use our most advanced AI models to power new use cases that accelerate productivity, help gather legal insights faster, and simplify complex workflows for thousands of customers on LexisNexis’ platform,” said Brad Lightcap, Chief Operating Officer at OpenAI.
Additionally, as part of the agreement, LexisNexis global teams will expedite their own productivity benefits, including accelerating innovation to address customers’ core needs, via ChatGPT Enterprise.
The LexisNexis global technology platform seamlessly integrates each wave of AI innovation, including extractive AI, which finds relevant results within data and provides deep insights; generative AI, which excels at creating new content from data based on user-entered prompts or instruction; and agentic AI, which can intelligently and independently perform tasks on a user’s behalf. Because LexisNexis can swiftly deliver innovative, trusted tools, customers realize improved outcomes and tangible value faster.
