If you work in litigation, you’ll have used eDiscovery tools like Relativity, DISCO or Everlaw. These handle the logistics of disclosure: collecting, processing, reviewing, and producing documents in a defensible way.
They’re essential, but if you stop with them, you put yourself at a disadvantage. eDiscovery just shows you the documents. It exists to ensure procedural completeness. It answers: Have we collected, reviewed, and produced everything relevant? It’s built for defensibility, not understanding. Once production is done, the real work begins: working out what the evidence actually says.
It’s true that Gen AI is changing eDiscovery. As DISCO’s AI Consulting Director recently told Artificial Lawyer, large language models are speeding up document review and “opening up a dialogue with your data.” That’s progress, but it’s still document-level progress.
Even with GenAI, eDiscovery remains focused on helping lawyers find and review documents more efficiently. It doesn’t explain how those documents fit together, where the contradictions lie, or whether the story they tell is complete.
That’s the gap Wexler fills.
What is fact intelligence?
Wexler is a fact intelligence platform. Think of it as a layer that sits on top of disclosure material and turns it into structured, verifiable knowledge.
It extracts, links, and verifies:
- Events: what happened and when.
- Entities: who was involved.
- Relationships: how people, organisations, and evidence connect.
- Contradictions: where facts don’t align.
- Gaps: where expected information is missing.
Instead of sifting through documents, litigators can see every fact, every connection, and every inconsistency in real time, all grounded in source evidence.

Even the best eDiscovery platforms are search-driven
They find relevant documents but don’t explain how those documents fit together. They can’t:
- Reconstruct timelines.
- Cross-check witness statements.
- Detect inconsistencies across custodians or exhibits.
- Confirm whether the factual record is complete.
Wexler does all of that, turning millions of pages into a defensible chronology of events, people, and evidence.
How litigation teams use Wexler
Leading firms including HSF Kramer, Addleshaw Goddard, Goodwin, Burges Salmon, and Clifford Chance use Wexler to power litigation, arbitration, and investigations.
They use it for:
- Case preparation: structuring evidence into verified chronologies within hours.
- Pleadings and submissions: drafting fact-checked statements with source-linked citations.
- Cross-examination: surfacing contradictions between witnesses or documents in real time.
- Internal investigations: verifying internal narratives against contemporaneous records.
- Client reporting: summarising facts with traceable evidence.
Wexler doesn’t replace eDiscovery. It builds on it.
eDiscovery covers the procedural side of litigation: collection, processing, review, and production. It ensures that every relevant document is captured, reviewed, and disclosed in a defensible way.
Wexler begins where that process ends. It supports the analytical side: analysis, strategy, and advocacy. Once the documents are uploaded, Wexler turns them into structured, verifiable facts, showing what happened, when, and who was involved. It’s the difference between proving completeness and achieving clarity.
Firms export disclosure sets from eDiscovery into Wexler. The platform then structures those documents into an interconnected network of facts, giving lawyers the ability to test narratives, verify accuracy, and see what’s missing before it becomes a problem.

Litigation now operates at a scale beyond manual comprehension. Evidence spans jurisdictions, systems, and formats. Even the best teams risk missing key facts because of overload.
Wexler keeps every fact visible, connected, and verifiable. It turns evidence into intelligence and information into advantage.
In short:
- eDiscovery ensures process.
- Wexler delivers understanding.
