Unlocking the Full Value of Your Deal Data with Deal Point Designer in Foundation Insights
In today’s high-stakes transactional environment, experience is currency—and deal points are its most valuable denomination. As firms race to adopt AI tools that enhance drafting and negotiation, the quality and structure of deal data becomes a critical differentiator. But for many firms, manually curating deal points remains a bottleneck.
That’s where Foundation Insights comes in.
Why AI Needs Curated Deal Data
AI can only be as effective as the data it draws from. For legal teams, that means surfacing deal-specific precedent, term trends, and negotiation patterns—all at the point of need. When deal points are well-organized, AI can assist lawyers in drafting smarter, negotiating stronger, and responding faster. Legal AI tools are already increasing law firm productivity but only 14% of firms are currently using AI to analyze firm data and matters. The challenge? Most deal points are collected manually post-closing, if at all. Associates or KM teams often fill out questionnaires after the fact, leading to incomplete data, inconsistent formats, and missed insights. Even firms with homegrown databases struggle with adoption and integration, which limits how useful that information is for GenAI tools.
Meet Deal Point Designer: The Key to AI-Ready Legal Data
Deal Point Designer, part of Foundation Insights, is a powerful tool that helps law firms curate structured, scalable, and AI-ready deal point frameworks. Instead of relying on one-size-fits-all taxonomies or post-matter surveys, firms can now take control—building a system that evolves with their practice. With Deal Point Designer, you can:
- Create custom deal points tailored to your firm’s workflows OR have Litera create them for you
- Add new categories and document types based on how and where your firm works
- Build firm-specific deal points to Litera’s AI-extracted Insights
- Hide or promote deal points to control visibility and focus
71% of legal professionals say delivering work faster is the top benefit of AI—Deal Point Designer ensures your firm’s deal data is structured, accessible, and AI-ready to support that speed and scale.
From Raw Data to Real-Time Insights
Adopting AI isn’t enough—firms need to adopt it intelligently. Without well-defined deal points, your AI tools are working with incomplete or outdated information. The result? Less reliable drafting suggestions, weaker negotiation positioning, and missed strategic opportunities. Foundation Insights changes that. It transforms raw, unstructured data into a real-time resource—one that captures firm-specific experience and turns it into actionable intelligence. Whether you're drafting a first pass, benchmarking a clause, or preparing for negotiations, your lawyers will have context at their fingertips. It bridges the gap between what your lawyers know and what your AI can deliver—empowering them to:
- Deliver stronger first drafts
- Negotiate with a data-backed edge
- Spend less time on manual precedent searches
For innovation leads, KM teams, and transactional lawyers alike, it’s the key to smarter, faster client service.
