The partnership builds on Sterling’s successful and secure document sharing solutions and extends the service to specifically support its legal customer base. The enhanced functionality offers API to simplify and speed up the due diligence, contract and document reviewing process. Sterling’s customers now no longer need to manage their documents in two separate systems, the new integration is enabling firms to seamlessly upload documents at any time, from any device, within minutes.
Sterling’s automatic synchronisation with Luminance ensures that no documents are missed during the upload, which is crucial for law firms conducting large-scale, high-risk due diligence reviews at any time, but of paramount importance in our current environment whereby the ability to access and checking against physical documents is severely curtailed.
Once documents have been automatically transferred to Luminance, the platform’s pioneering machine learning technology can rapidly read and understand the data room at hand, instantly flagging areas of critical risk to the lawyer. As a result, lawyers are empowered to deliver prompt and informed legal advice to their business and clients.
Jason Brennan, Luminance’s acting CEO, comments: “By integrating with Sterling and facilitating a quick and easy upload of legal data, Luminance’s customers will achieve even greater time savings and be sure of the most thorough document review. Indeed, with most of our client-base working from home due to the pandemic, Luminance’s integration with Sterling will enable customers to maintain efficiency and productivity during this critical period.”
Steve Dobson, Global Sales Director at Sterling Technology, adds: “We are very happy to have partnered with Luminance. Our clients require their technology partners to be on the same page and by ensuring seamless integration between the platforms we are enabling lawyers to be more efficient.”
For clients wishing to enable the integration contact the client support team at either Sterling or Luminance.
