Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Legora and Erste Group, not ours.

> Erste implemented the platform across its entire legal organisation: 250 lawyers, 30+ legal departments, seven jurisdictions. This makes it one of the most significant legal-AI deployments in the European financial sector to date.

> For me, it's about working smarter, not just faster. Banking is one of the most regulated industries, but everybody still needs fast yet accurate support. It helps you speed up your daily tasks. And it’s creative. It gives me ideas which I probably wouldn’t think of.
