Law firms invest years building deeply curated knowledge repositories. Gowling WLG took the next step, turning theirs into a secure, AI-powered client extranet.

Ted Theodoropoulos, CEO at Infodash, Kameron Berget, CTO at Infodash, and Al Hounsell, Senior Director of AI at Gowling WLG, sat down for a conversation about the project that earned them a 2026 ILTA Trailblazer Award finalist nomination. They discussed how Gowling WLG partnered with Infodash to elevate a comprehensive, well-structured knowledge base into a client-facing intelligence platform built on Microsoft 365 and Azure AI Search.

Ted and Al covered what it takes to bring AI to historical legal data at scale, including semantic search, natural language querying, citation-backed discovery, security trimming, and stateful AI conversations, all delivered through the client extranet experience.

If you are a technology/knowledge/innovation leader exploring how to unlock the value of your firm’s institutional knowledge for clients, this one is for you.
