Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are a Brazilian law firm. As such, Kira is not able to be used in the majority of our work out-of-the-box. In addition to training Kira to handle Portuguese documents, we are already using Kira in M&A Transactions and to read and extract certain information from legal certificates (in both cases limited use only).

Likelihood to Recommend

Being a non-English-speaking user, although Kira is a very useful tool and has great potential, having to invest many hours in training before being able to effectively use the software in real-life application is by far the greatest drawback. If that initial barrier is surpassed, Kira is very useful for any contract-based law practice.

It is not very useful for Brazilian litigation standards.
