4.3 Next Steps

This benchmarking exercise is just a starting point. Going forward, we plan to:

• Expand the evaluation to cover other legal functions and include new AI assistants
• We will gather additional tasks to test AI capabilities more broadly, with the next task category being summarization tasks, and publish updates to this report when relevant

We invite feedback and collaboration with legal practitioners, researchers, and vendors. If there are important use cases we missed or if a vendor believes their assistant would excel in our tasks, we welcome the opportunity to evaluate it. A more open and transparent benchmarking culture in the legal industry will benefit everyone.
