Rational Enterprise makes eDiscovery and information governance software for law firms, corporations, and government agencies. Our customers use it to cut review costs, control data risk, and meet regulatory requirements. We've been doing this for 15+ years.
Rational Governance manages your data before a dispute starts. Rational Review handles discovery once it does.
A cloud eDiscovery platform for litigation review and production, internal investigations, and M&A due diligence. Technology-assisted review (TAR) and predictive coding cut document review costs by up to 60%. Project management comes from a dedicated team with 15+ years in legal technology.
An information governance platform for the unstructured data spread across your organization. It classifies data automatically, enforces retention policies, removes ROT and dark data, and supports GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and SOX compliance. It works on data in place, in real time.

Litigation and compliance now involve more data, from more sources, than older tools were built to handle. These are the problems we hear about most and how our software addresses each one.
Email, Teams, Slack, and phone data pile up faster than most teams can manage. Rational Review processes and culls large data sets so irrelevant documents are removed before attorney review starts.
Document review is usually the largest cost in litigation. Rational Review's technology-assisted review (TAR) and predictive coding reduce the number of documents that need review by 40–60%, which cuts attorney hours and processing fees.
Sanctions, spoliation rulings, and adverse inference instructions can sink a case. Rational Review keeps an auditable chain of custody from legal hold issuance through final production.
80–90% of enterprise data is unstructured, spread across file shares, email archives, and cloud storage where no one can see what it contains. Rational Governance maps it, classifies it, and applies policy to it automatically, in real time.
$3.4 billion in record-keeping fines have been issued since 2020, and GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and SOX all carry penalties. Rational Governance enforces retention policies automatically and records each disposal so it can be defended.
At least 30% of enterprise data is redundant, obsolete, or trivial (ROT). Keeping it raises storage costs, enlarges eDiscovery review sets, and adds legal liability. Rational Governance finds ROT data and disposes of it defensibly.
Rational Review uses AI throughout the eDiscovery workflow, from processing to document review. The tools were designed around how attorneys and legal teams review documents.
In 2025, 74% of legal professionals expected to use AI eDiscovery tools. Rational Review gives your team machine learning, natural language processing, and generative AI now. That includes AI Review Assist, which runs a first-pass responsiveness review and sends only the uncertain calls to your reviewers.
Runs a first-pass responsiveness review inside the matter. Describe relevance once, and each document comes back with a decision, a confidence score, and a plain-language reason. Low-confidence calls and disagreements with earlier coding go to a Needs Human Review queue.
Ask questions in plain English about one document or the whole matter. The chatbot remembers earlier questions in the conversation, and no query language is needed.
Summarize a whole batch of documents at once to find key facts and decide what to review first without reading every page.
Scores each document as positive, negative, or neutral to help flag high-risk communications in employment, fraud, antitrust, and regulatory investigations.
Technology-assisted review with real-time prediction scores. The model learns from your coding decisions and classifies the remaining documents, reducing review volume by 40–60%.
Groups documents by topic based on their text. Use the clusters to see the main themes, find documents from key custodians, and decide what to review first instead of reading in order.
Finds SSNs, phone numbers, and other PII by pattern. AI also flags possible privilege markers such as attorney domains, legal hold notices, and litigation strategy language, which helps prevent inadvertent waiver.
Translate batches of documents into English and search the translated text. Supports 28+ languages, including Polish, Gujarati, and Latvian, for cross-border investigations.
Litigation evidence now goes well beyond email and Word documents. Rational Review collects, processes, and reviews the electronically stored information (ESI) attorneys deal with today.
Email threading with custodian aggregation, date-range analysis, and attachment families kept together. Inclusive email detection removes redundant messages from review.
Collect and review Teams and Slack channel messages, direct messages, and attachments. The native viewer shows conversations as they appeared in the app.
Import SMS text message data and WhatsApp conversations. Split threads for review in configurable ways, with metadata preserved.
Review Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files natively. Bulk redaction covers text, images, shapes, and chart elements inside spreadsheets.
Passwords are detected and applied automatically during loading, so encrypted ZIP archives and protected Office files open without manual work.
Convert audio and video files to searchable text transcripts. Apply redactions to transcribed content and produce transcripts alongside source media.
Large, complex spreadsheets render quickly. Cell-level redaction covers shapes and charts, and all text is extracted and indexed.
Detects 28+ languages automatically, with bulk translation and full-text search of the translated content for cross-border investigations.
See and manage the unstructured data across your enterprise, in place and in real time. Organizations use Rational Governance to reduce risk, run more efficiently, and make better use of the information they already have.
