ROCHESTER, N.Y.--(Business Wire)--
Xerox Corporation (NYSE: XRX) is making legal document review faster and more
accurate than ever with CategoriX, a new technology that uses input from the
legal team to automatically classify documents, reducing the amount of material
requiring manual review. 

CategoriX allows attorneys to fine tune classification requirements as they
uncover new case information - increasing the accuracy of the document review
process. The tool also detects when two similar documents appear in different
categories, prompting the legal team to take a closer look to ensure
consistency. 

"The sheer volume of content associated with large scale legal reviews is
growing dramatically, often resulting in a trade off between review speed and
accuracy," said Vivian Tero, program manager for GRC Infrastructure, IDC.
"Solutions like Xerox Litigation Services' CategoriX combine technology with the
attorney expertise in the document review process with the intended outcome of
enabling more consistency, faster review times and lower attorney review costs."


CategoriX, developed at Xerox Research Centre Europe, is one of many innovations
that simplify time-consuming work processes, such as legal discovery. The
technology is the latest enhancement to the Xerox Litigation Services`
e-discovery platform and is supported by additional tools that streamline the
analysis of legal documentation.
