The Movement
Today, most teams trust AI tools they cannot actually check — a risk the profession is waking up to. The status quo leans heavily on manual look-up, which simply cannot keep pace with the caseload. A clear signal is emerging: grounded, citable legal AI is moving from novelty to expectation. Right now, patents & designs research runs on a patchwork of databases, inboxes, and senior memory.
The Background
In Patents & Designs, clients compare you not just to peers but to the best, fastest advice they have ever received. Indian courts and tribunals move at their own pace, and preparation under deadline is unforgiving. Regulatory change and rising client expectations make consistent, citable answers non-negotiable. Across IP & Technology, the bar for accuracy and turnaround keeps rising.
The Hurdle
The issue shows up most clearly as Inconsistent conflict checks when work product must be reused. For a Deputy General Counsel, inconsistent conflict checks when work product must be reused is more than an inconvenience — it is a daily drag on billable, high-value work. When inconsistent conflict checks when work product must be reused sets in, deadlines tighten and the risk of a missed authority grows.
