Lito, Litera's Legal AI Agent, Selected As "AI Legal Assistant Solution of the Year” in 2025 LegalTech Breakthrough Awards Program
CHICAGO - Nov. 13, 2025 - Litera, a global leader in legal AI technology solutions, has been named a winner in the 6th annual LegalTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by LegalTech Breakthrough. The company’s legal AI agent, Lito, was awarded “AI Legal Assistant Solution of the Year.” Lito unifies legal workflows with intelligent automation within the Litera One interface, pulling from firms’ data and integrating into popular Microsoft applications and the web. The LegalTech Breakthrough Awards recognizes standout legal technology companies, products, and services around the globe.
"While the market has been crowded with announcements about legal AI agents lately, Litera has spent the time to purposefully craft the most asked-for skills into our AI legal agent Lito, and it’s paying off for us," said Adam Ryan, Chief Product Officer at Litera. "Our approach is less hype and more real value right where lawyers do their work, based on our 30 years' experience as the trusted technology provider of choice for the largest enterprise law firms and corporate legal departments in the world. The response since launch has been incredible with rapid adoption across our customer base. We are thrilled that the LegalTech Breakthrough awards have recognized that our approach is unique."
High-profile law firms in Litera's Early Access Program (EAP) for Lito helped shape the AI agent's expanding capabilities.
"Lito helped me review and compare over 40 leases using it’s off-the-shelf grid template for leases,” said Brian Corbett, Partner at Poyner Spruill LLP. “I was even able to add additional criteria for Lito to summarize in the grid and easily review and verify Lito’s summary within each of the leases it annotated for me. Using Lito’s grid allowed me to complete what would have typically been a 5-hour project in around 30-45 minutes."
“Lito’s award-winning, enterprise-grade security and seamless integration with firms’ systems ensure strict data governance while driving client satisfaction, competitive differentiation, and measurable ROI,” said Bryan Vaughn, Managing Director, LegalTech Breakthrough. “Our awards program researches, analyzes, and recognizes the ‘breakthrough’ leaders in the most competitive categories of technology.

Litera solidified its win by redefining what's possible in legal AI and delivering proven results that are transforming legal practices across the industry. We’re thrilled to award Litera with ‘AI Legal Assistant Solution of the Year!’”
