Litera Platform: Unlocking Efficiency in Document Comparison and Drafting

Wed 06 Aug 2025

Legal professionals today face mounting pressure to deliver precise, high-quality work faster than ever before. Between client demands, complex workflows, and a sea of disconnected tech tools, law firms and in-house legal teams are searching for solutions that simplify processes, reduce risk, and improve productivity. That’s where Litera Platform comes in.

What Is Litera Platform?
Litera Platform is a unified, cloud-based interface that brings together drafting, review, and GenAI-powered insights—directly within Microsoft 365 and modern browsers. Designed specifically for the legal industry, it empowers lawyers to work smarter, not harder, across platforms and devices.

Whether you’re drafting in Word, reviewing documents in Outlook, or working remotely via browser, Litera Platform enables efficient, accurate, and secure workflows—all from one seamless interface.

  • Efficiency: Automate repetitive tasks and work across devices (PC, Mac, browser) with ease
  • Quality: AI+ integrations enhance accuracy and consistency across every document
  • Flexibility: Access workflows from anywhere—office, home, or on the go
  • Adoption: A simplified user experience designed to drive firmwide adoption
  • Maintenance: Cloud-based tools for Word and Outlook  means reduced IT burden
  • Security: Built with enterprise-grade compliance and privacy controls

“Litera Platform is a game-changer, allowing document comparison within the same environment and featuring impressive AI capabilities for summarizing changes, smart proofreading, and formatting.” - Director of IT at a law firm.

Accessing Litera Platform
Litera Platform is available through three packages tailored to different levels of drafting and review needs:

  • Draft Base: Core drafting and comparison workflows across desktop, Microsoft 365, and browser
  • Draft Pro: Adds AI-powered automation for document review, redlining, proofing, and repair
  • Draft Advanced: Offers advanced document intelligence and lifecycle tools for teams ready to scale

What Is Draft Base?
Draft Base is the foundation of Litera Platform’s comparison capabilities. It includes Litera Compare (both Desktop and Web!), which is trusted by 75% of the legal industry, and provides a consistent experience across Word, Outlook, and browser-based platforms.

Lawyers benefit from the ability to compare documents on any device, whether they’re in the office or on the go. With comparisons initiated directly from email attachments or within Word, Draft Base enables legal professionals to stay focused and in control without leaving their native workflows.

For IT teams, Draft Base simplifies tool deployment and support. It reduces tech stack complexity with just one Office Add-in for Word and one for Outlook, ensuring a consistent and future-proof experience across Windows, Mac, and browser environments.

Upgrade to Pro for Automation Where Lawyers Work
When your team is ready to go beyond comparison, Draft Pro takes legal drafting to the next level with automation and GenAI-powered review. It enhances your core workflows with natural language search, smart redline summaries, cross-reference checks, and comprehensive document proofing—all from within Word, Outlook, or the browser.

By reducing time spent on tedious review cycles and eliminating manual cleanup, Draft Pro helps legal professionals deliver higher-quality documents faster and with greater confidence.
