Product Security

Most AI products are built in such a way that they are inherently insecure. If this box is checked, the product or application claims to keep data secure and away from the prying eyes of the public. Although users should not put client information into these platforms, typically sensitive company information is safe.

Client Confidentiality

While some products are secure enough for your own data, others go the extra step of making sure no third party (even themselves) have access to any of the data in your AI product. In these cases, the provider claims that your data is secure enough to maintain your client's Attorney/Client privilege.

Can this product be used for basic marketing tasks like blog creation, social media videos, or website images?

Documentation Assistance

Can this product be used to help document how to do something, whether internal or external facing?

Additional Details about Clio Duo

Clio Duo is a proprietary generative AI technology. It’s designed to enhance productivity by enabling lawyers to interact with their case data using natural language. Available as a paid add-on, Clio Duo aims to streamline legal practice management through secure, context-aware AI assistance.

Natural Language Interface

Clio Duo lets users interact with their practice data using plain English; just type what you want it to do, like “summarize this matter” or “draft a follow-up email.” This lowers the learning curve and makes legal workflows faster without complex navigation or commands.

Document Drafting and Summarization

Duo can generate drafts for emails, letters, or memos based on case data or previous communications. Duo also summarizes long case notes, call logs, or documents, helping users grasp key points quickly.

Matter Insights

Duo can surface insights from a matter’s history, such as key dates, contacts, and recent activity. This eliminates the need to dig through files, making case prep and collaboration more efficient.

Task Creation…via Natural Language

Users can ask Duo to create tasks, set deadlines, and assign follow-ups within Clio Manage.

Secure, Context-Aware Responses

Because Duo works within Clio’s secure environment, it uses case-specific data responsibly, staying compliant with legal privacy standards. It tailors its output based on who’s involved, the matter context, and your recent activity, offering more accurate and relevant results.

Since Duo is developed by Clio, privacy operates as a core principle. Duo’s design includes “guardrails” protecting client confidential data.

Document Analyzer

Clio Duo’s Document Analyzer allows users to upload legal documents and receive instant AI-generated summaries, issue spotting, or clause identification. This feature helps lawyers understand contracts or filings without manually reading through every section, improving speed and accuracy in document review.

Who Clio Duo is for

Duo is built into Clio Manage for Clio users. It is requires a per-user, per-month add-on purchase from Clio.
