The Brief: November 2025

Use Harvey in your day-to-day tools so you can draft, review, and respond without changing how you work.

Use Harvey’s reasoning and drafting capabilities directly within your email threads to analyze content, draft replies, and store important materials in Vault.

Work seamlessly between iManage and Harvey by selecting documents and asking Harvey questions without leaving iManage.

Easily remove sensitive information from Word documents using the new Redact workflow, now including metadata redaction.

Quickly fill Word templates with uploaded information, and Harvey will populate standard templates automatically to save you time on document creation.

Turn any document into a reusable template. Harvey will automatically detect names, addresses, and other variable fields, replacing them with placeholders.

Get answers that account for the full conversation around your document, not just its text. Harvey now can read and understand comments in Word.

View and resume your past playbook reviews on a specific document. Track which playbooks you've run and easily return to previous analyses.

Highlight clauses in the contract that were reviewed by the playbook. Harvey will leave comments explaining which rule each clause is associated with.

Get better answers to complex legal questions by drawing on more sources, stronger reasoning, and richer context.

Answer questions, draft memos, and perform follow-ups with trusted, AI-powered insights from LexisNexis® primary law.

Synthesizes across multiple trusted sources — like Vault, iManage, web, file uploads and local legal data sources — to deliver comprehensive, well-cited reports that help you understand the full picture faster.

Query across two sources at once, giving you broader access to the context you need without switching tools or re-uploading files — or switch between different knowledge sources within a thread.

When querying over uploaded documents or Vault projects, Harvey will intelligently perform iterative searches until it has the information it needs to produce the best possible response to the query.

GPT-5 is now the default model for all chat and draft responses, bringing major upgrades in reasoning, reliability, and writing quality.

Quickly add, delete, and replace all of the embedded files in a custom workflow with a new file management UI.

Quickly run Harvey and custom workflows that combine local file uploads, DMS files, and Vault files in a single session, so you don’t have to split up different file types.

Ground workflows in up-to-date, real-world information by embedding web search into custom workflows.

Enable precise, jurisdiction-specific answers directly in Assistant with new legal knowledge sources for Austria (RIS), Germany (Gesetze-im-Internet), and Canada (Justice Laws & Ontario e-Laws).

More easily manage access, organize work, and keep projects running smoothly.

Easily enable new features across your team with simplified admin controls and dedicated pages for each opt-in feature.

Organize projects and share findings easily by choosing which project to save each query in.

Easily transfer project ownership when responsibilities change — keeping projects organized and collaboration seamless.

Organize workspace members with public and private groups, making it easier to manage sharing, personalize collaboration, and control access across matters and departments.

Small-but-mighty updates that make Harvey easier to navigate, more intuitive to use and better aligned with how you work.

Select and refine knowledge sources in Assistant with greater clarity. Source details now highlight descriptions and data source information in both the source picklist and filter chips.

A redesigned sources panel makes it easier to navigate, search, and interpret citations — with clearer icons, a new search bar, and auto-updating sources that stay aligned with your current thread view.

Every detail matters when you’re doing critical work in Harvey, so we’ve fixed and improved dozens of small details. We’re also refreshing and polishing different areas of the product to make it easier and more enjoyable to use, including updated source chips and icons across Assistant and Vault.

That’s all for November. See you next month!
