Event summary

RelativityOne now integrates with Microsoft Copilot via Model Context Protocol (MCP) as of August 31, 2026.
Legal teams can automate RelativityOne administrative workflows using natural language in Copilot.
Microsoft Copilot is used by 68% of global law firms and 84% of the largest firms, per 2025 ILTA survey.

The move reflects broader industry trends toward natural language processing in legal tech, with potential to reduce administrative overhead and improve data governance. Relativity's strategy of extending its platform through partnerships appears to be gaining momentum, following recent expansions of its Model Context Protocol integrations.
