About Chat EQ
ChatEQ is a document production service for litigation counsel. It helps the lawyer producing documents in a dispute review a client's files against the discovery responses already served, so that the production covers what was agreed and nothing else.
The workflow starts with the lawyer supplying the served responses, a privilege list and the client files. The lawyer edits and signs the scope before any review runs. The system then codes the files against those responses, keeps emails together with their attachments, reviews each duplicate file once, and holds privileged and mixed files back for a lawyer instead of deciding them automatically. Before the set is treated as settled, it raises the questions only counsel can answer, such as who a person is, whether another deal is in scope, and what the responses actually promised. Pleadings and strategy notes are treated as defining what is owed rather than as material to produce. The finished volume is prepared in the form the case requires, ready to load into the review tool used by the other side. The vendor also describes an assistant for each matter that counsel can question, running on the firm's own system.
The vendor states that privilege, redaction and unclear calls stay with counsel, who signs what goes out. Pricing is not published. Prospective customers are invited to tell the vendor their deadline to begin.
