About the Announcement:
Litera announced a global integration of Litera Compare with Google Workspace, making its document comparison and redlining capabilities available to law firms and corporate legal teams using Google Drive. Purpose-built for legal complexity, Litera Compare delivers a 100% accuracy rate for tracking redlines across documents that grow longer, riskier, and more demanding in real legal practice. Corporate in-house counsel and law firms accessing Litera Compare through Google Workspace also have access to Lito, Litera's legal AI agent, included as part of their Litera Compare subscription, giving users AI-powered automation across the practice and business of law where they work.
"Legal teams shouldn't have to switch between the tools they use every day and the AI capabilities they need - and now, with our Google Workspace integration, they don't have to," said Kenneth Pechous, Global Head, Business Development & Alliances at Litera. "Corporate legal departments and law firms can now draft with the power of Litera's industry-leading legal expertise and institutional knowledge right where they already work. That means less time hunting for the right language, fewer costly errors, and no disruption to the way their teams already collaborate. We're proud to be working with Google Cloud to make that possible."
Through a new Litera connector, legal professionals can now point directly to Google Drive to access documents for redlining and comparison within Google Docs. Litera Compare, precision document comparison trusted by over 15,000 firms and legal departments for more than 30 years, is now available via the Google Workspace Marketplace, enabling seamless redlining, eliminating the context-switching that costs lawyers billable time. Legal teams struggle when AI can’t operate directly on documents stored in their systems of record, forcing manual workarounds that slow reviews and increase the risk of errors. Litera can accept documents from Google Drive as inputs for all available skills in the Litera One web platform. This means the full Lito capability set—chat-based comparison and summaries, risk and mitigation cues, multi-document chat, grid reviews, review terms, deal point insights, and prompt skills—works on Google-hosted documents regardless of the document type without requiring download or format conversion.
Compare surfaces changes between two or more documents, uncovering the evolution of text, tables, images, and more, across file types. Similar to Litera Compare's user experience in Word, Outlook and mobile, Compare delivers precisions through Google Workspace and then extends the workflow with Lito's summarization, risk analysis, mitigation suggestions, and clause rewrite suggestions. Together, Compare and Lito move law firms beyond static redlines to proactive, AI-powered legal workflows.
The core Litera project team, including Kenneth Pechous, Global Head, Business Development & Alliances, Joey Benedek, Senior Vice President of Product, and Ivan Martinez, Senior Product Manager, will be available at Google Cloud's booth at Google Cloud Next, April 22–24, 2026, in Las Vegas to discuss the integration and answer questions from legal teams and partners exploring Google Workspace-based legal AI solutions.
