Litera took a contrarian approach when compared to most AI startups in the industry, treating AI as a fundamental enhancement to its core drafting tools rather than a premium add-on. The result has been unprecedented adoption rates that earned the platform three prestigious  awards, including Best in AI for Legal Services & Compliance and Best in Large Language Models at the Global AI Awards (https://www.globalaiaward.com/winners). Lito also earned AI Legal Assistant Solution of the Year in 2025 in the LegalTech Breakthrough Awards Program (https://www.litera.com/newslinks/lito-selected-2025-legaltech-breakthrough-awards).

By removing cost barriers to AI adoption, Litera has triggered a cascade of usage that reveals pent-up demand for practical AI tools:

• 10x growth in monthly active cloud drafting users since spring 2025
• 26,000+ AI-powered document summaries generated
• 10,000+ document chat conversations in November alone
• 68% of new enterprise customers actively using the platform
• 2,000+ GenAI skills completed  
• Litera's Kira product alone saw more than 4 million documents uploaded and processed through the year with GenAI feature usage such as generative smart fields growing over 160% month over month

"We knew we had the ingredients right when we saw adoption take off almost immediately after launch," said Litera CEO Avaneesh Marwaha (https://www.linkedin.com/in/avaneeshmarwaha/). "By removing the cost barrier and including Lito as part of our drafting products, we've proven that lawyers are ready for AI—they just needed it integrated into tools they already trust. When you see 10x growth in three months and thousands of agentic workflows being completed daily, it confirms what we believed: this isn't about charging more for innovation; it's about making our 30 years of legal experience exponentially more powerful through AI."

"We're witnessing what happens when you treat AI as a core feature rather than a luxury add-on," added Marwaha. "The triple award wins from Global AI Awards and LegalTech Breakthrough weren't just recognition of our technology—they validated our belief that democratizing access to agentic AI would fundamentally change how legal work gets done."
