Harvey Unveils Outlook Agents, iManage Sync and Fact Graph

Harvey positions context as the next step for legal AI

More than 500 leaders from law firms, in-house legal teams and the legal ecosystem attended Harvey FORUM Chicago, according to Harvey. During the product keynote, co-founder and CEO Winston Weinberg said the company expects legal AI to move in 2027 from “a tool you prompt to a team that you run.”

Harvey said that shift depends on agents understanding matters or projects as well as the lawyers working on them, while firms retain the ability to govern those agents. Its Harvey Graph is designed to map relationships across a firm or team’s matter or project, allowing agents to share a map of the work rather than rebuilding context at every step.

“That's what we’re building into our agents: context and control, so they operate the way you and your team do every step of the way,” Weinberg said in the company’s announcement.

iManage integration and Outlook agents expand where Harvey works

Harvey and iManage have built a two-way integration that will be in early access soon. Context can flow from iManage into Harvey, while finished work flows back, with iManage remaining the system of record. Ethical wall policies maintained in iManage will carry over and be enforced in Harvey.

Harvey agents are also now available in Outlook through an add-in. They can sort incoming email by matter or deal, file attachments to the appropriate Vault, draft replies, propose solutions to scheduling conflicts and suggest first-pass review when a new draft arrives. Users can also build agents such as a personal daily briefing agent.

Harvey says users approve every step, and that nothing is sent, filed or changed without them seeing it first. The company demonstrated the workflow with an M&A partner handling email triage, a purchase agreement review and a question about prior letters of intent. The Outlook add-in can be turned on today, according to Harvey.

New workflows target in-house teams and disputes

Harvey’s Intake solution is now in early access for in-house teams. It takes requests directly from business emails, gathers deal background and past contracts, asks follow-up questions in the same thread, and routes work to a Contract Review Agent and the appropriate lawyer according to the team’s rules. The resulting redlines are traced to precedents and standards before the reviewed contract returns to the requester. Once signed, it feeds contract insights for future work.

The company also showed a fact graph for litigation and internal investigations. The capability creates a shared record of facts as evidence emerges, links each fact to its source, and supports chronologies, summaries and other work product grounded in those facts. It is intended to support handoffs between teams and stages.

Harvey said litigators represent a third of its customer base. The fact graph is being developed with design partners, and early access is open. Together, the announcements show Harvey extending its legal AI beyond standalone prompting into workflows that preserve matter context, apply team rules and keep users involved in decisions.
