Wave Software to Launch Native Review Bridge as kCura Independent Software Vendor

Jan. 25, 2010 - PRLog -- ORLANDO, FL and CHICAGO, IL (January 25, 2010) - Orlando-based Wave Software, a leading provider of early case assessment, legal holds, litigation support and electronic data discovery technology for global corporations, and kCura, developers of the web-based e-discovery software Relativity, today announced that Wave Software has become an official Independent Software Vendor (ISV) for kCura. Under kCura’s ISV program, the two companies have integrated their technology platforms to provide greater coverage of the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM), enabling users to take discovery data from processing to production.  

“With discovery collections increasing each day, Relativity clients will find that Trident Pro’s processing and culling tools allow them to work easily and efficiently,” said Robert Childress, President of Wave Software. “The integration of the two technologies will give clients a faster and more efficient way of managing data, review and production.”

“Our focus with Relativity is to deliver an exceptional review, analysis, and production platform to our end users,” said Andrew Sieja, President and CEO of kCura. “Increasingly, however, our users are looking for faster and more efficient ways to process, filter and load data directly into Relativity as part of the review process. The direct integration with Trident Pro gives them a powerful tool to meet that need.”

About the Integration
As agile companies that have remained at the forefront of legal technology, Wave Software and kCura are integrating Trident Pro and Relativity to offer best-of-breed technology in an all-in-one solution. Now litigation support teams have broader coverage of the EDRM stages.

Wave Software’s Trident Pro filters and culls native file discovery data, including foreign language documents, PSTs, NSFs, MSGs and loose files, and loads the results directly into kCura’s Relativity, thus completely removing the need to create load files and manually import processed data. Relativity is a powerful and easy-to-use review platform. Features include an interface that is almost completely customizable between users and groups, a flexible workflow component, the ability to TIFF on the fly, powerful searching that includes concept searching and clustering, and world-class scalability, giving Relativity the power to handle the industry’s largest and most complex reviews.

The integration of Trident Pro with Relativity gives litigators a faster and easier way to analyze and review discovery data.

Beyond pushing Electronically Stored Information (ESI) processed by Trident Pro directly into Relativity and removing the need for load files, the integration will provide improved analytics for the review team by including a bundled case template that makes use of Trident Pro’s rich metadata extraction. Examples of improved analytics include keyword hit reporting, email domain groupings, file type groupings, and near duplicate groupings. The speed of integrated processing combined with enhanced analytics capabilities will allow reviewers to quickly cull and assess data with items pre-grouped, metadata parsed out and placed into the appropriate fields, and the documents ready for review and production without any additional processing.
