Onit MCP

Posted on September 30, 2026 by -

Your legal system of record, accessible to your AI.


Your team has standardized on an AI assistant for daily work, but it has no access to the data that actually drives your legal decisions: matters, invoices, vendors, contracts, spend, and approvals living in Onit. Onit MCP bridges that gap, letting your AI assistant ask questions about your legal operations and get answers in seconds, all while respecting the exact permissions and audit trails you’d have in Onit itself.

Download the datasheet to see how Onit MCP connects your AI assistant to Onit data with the same governance and audit trail as a UI action, plus real example questions legal teams are already asking.

In this datasheet, you’ll learn about:

  • Connecting one server to ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, or Gemini without per-platform engineering
  • How every MCP call executes as the authenticated user and logs identically to a UI action
  • Why Onit hosts and manages the server, so your IT team has nothing new to stand up
  • Real questions legal teams use to review invoice activity, check billing authorizations, look up timekeepers, and find matters
  • Why read-only access protects your data today, with write tools for matters, spend, and approvals on the roadmap

From Invoice Review to Spend Insights: See AI-Powered Legal Spend Management

Posted on September 30, 2026 by -

Legal teams need to do more than control individual invoices. They also need to understand where legal spend is going, what’s driving it, and where action may be needed.

But reviewing invoices line by line and digging through reports to answer spend questions can make it difficult to see both the details and the bigger picture.

AI can help legal teams do both.

Join us for a demo of Spend Agent and Ask Unity to see how Onit brings AI into legal spend management, from reviewing individual invoices to uncovering insights across your legal operations.

See how legal teams can:

  • Review invoices against billing guidelines and matter-specific engagement terms
  • Identify potential billing issues and move from findings to recommended financial adjustments
  • Choose the right level of automation and human oversight based on vendor and business needs
  • Use Ask Unity to ask questions about invoices, spend, matters, vendors, budgets, accruals, and more
  • Turn legal data into insights and visualizations to better understand spend trends and performance

This is how legal teams move from individual invoice review to a broader understanding of legal spend, with AI helping them strengthen control and make more informed decisions.

Better Bill GPT: How LLMs Performed Against Human Legal Invoice Reviewers

92% invoice-level accuracy, compared to 72% for experienced lawyers. 22x faster than manual review.

Legal invoice review is difficult to scale. A single invoice can contain hundreds of charges, each of which needs to be checked against billing guidelines, engagement terms, approved rates, and matter-specific instructions. As volume grows, maintaining that level of scrutiny across every invoice gets harder. 

Onit’s AI Center of Excellence set out to test whether large language models could help. The study pitted six general-purpose LLMs against experienced lawyers, early-career lawyers, and experienced legal operations professionals, all reviewing the same 50 invoices and 492 line items against a standardized set of billing guidelines. The results: the top-performing models outperformed experienced lawyers on accuracy, speed, and cost. 

In this white paper, you’ll find: 

  • The full accuracy comparison: 92% invoice-level accuracy compared to 72% for experienced lawyers, plus the wider methodology behind that number 
  • Why the gap widened even further at the line-item level, where the best-performing model scored nearly double the top human reviewers 
  • The complete speed and cost breakdown behind the “22x faster” figure, including per-invoice processing cost 
  • What happened when human reviewers used discretion instead of strictly enforcing billing guidelines 
  • Five governance questions legal teams should answer before increasing automation in invoice review 

This white paper is designed for General Counsel, legal operations leaders, and finance professionals who want to understand where AI can reliably support invoice review, and where human judgment still needs to lead.

The First-Pass Framework for Legal Invoice Review

Posted on September 15, 2026 by -

A practical guide to AI-assisted legal invoice review 

Legal invoice review is not one task. Some decisions are objective checks. Others depend on billing guidelines, engagement terms, or professional judgment. Treating every decision the same can create inconsistent reviews, unnecessary manual work, or automation without the right oversight. 

The First-Pass Framework gives legal operations teams a practical operating model for assigning each invoice decision to the form of review best suited to it. It explains where deterministic controls work best, where contextual AI can provide a useful first pass, and where people should retain decision-making authority. 

In this guide, you’ll learn how to: 

  • Distinguish objective controls, contextual first-pass review, and human judgment 
  • Establish a clear hierarchy for general, vendor-specific, and matter-specific billing guidance 
  • Choose an appropriate oversight approach by vendor or invoice population 
  • Separate findings, recommended adjustments, accepted adjustments, and realized savings 
  • Use the included governance worksheet to map one vendor or invoice population  

This guide is designed for legal operations leaders who want to improve invoice quality, strengthen billing compliance, and adopt AI without removing the judgment and accountability the process requires. 

Closing the Gaps in Your Legal Hold Process

Posted on September 1, 2026 by -

Legal hold processes often span multiple people, systems, and sources of information. Matter details live in one place, custodian information in another, while acknowledgments and follow-up may still be tracked through email. 

Those gaps can make it difficult to know what’s been completed, what still needs attention, and even harder to reconstruct what happened after the fact. 

Join Matt DenOuden and Jeffrey Solomon for a discussion on how legal teams can build a more consistent, connected approach to managing legal holds from initial notice through release. 

You’ll learn how to: 

  • Identify common gaps across the legal hold process 
  • Keep custodian information and obligations current as matters evolve 
  • Build consistency across notices, acknowledgments, reminders, and escalations 
  • Improve visibility across matter, custodian, and preservation activity 
  • Reduce manual follow-up while maintaining accountability 

This webinar is designed for Legal Ops and in-house legal teams looking to strengthen legal hold processes, improve visibility, and reduce the administrative burden of managing holds. 

 Fix Intake First: A Smarter Approach to Legal Operations.

Posted on August 26, 2026 by -

When legal work starts in email, chat, or inconsistent request processes, it becomes harder to route work efficiently, track progress, and understand what’s coming into the department.

OnitX helps legal teams create a more structured intake experience, giving business users an easier way to request legal support while giving Legal Ops greater control and visibility behind the scenes.

Want to see how it works?

Join us for a 20-minute session to see how legal teams can:

  • Create a centralized front door for legal requests with guided, configurable intake experiences
  • Capture the right information upfront and route requests to the appropriate teams and stakeholders
  • Manage requests from intake through resolution with assignments, status tracking, activity, and automated workflows
  • Turn requests into matters when needed while carrying key information into the matter
  • Gain visibility into request volume, workload, status, and trends with reporting and dashboards

See how a more structured approach to intake can reduce manual coordination, improve the experience for business users, and give Legal Ops greater visibility into the work coming their way.
