On Thursday, Thomson Reuters announced the launch of its AI for Legal Justice Aid program, which includes a partnership with select nonprofit legal aid organizations as well as the release of a subsidized version of its generative artificial intelligence assistant CoCounsel.
The partnership, called the Legal Innovators Incubator Program, includes participation from 15 various 501(c) legal aid organizations such as The Innocence Center, Lawyers Alliance for New York, and the Northwest Justice Project, among others. These first 15 will be given gen AI guidance and training as well as free access to CoCounsel through the program.
Thomson Reuters is also subsidizing its CoCounsel offerings for legal aid organizations, specifically CoCounsel Core, which is the AI assistant without a Westlaw subscription, and CoCounsel Drafting. CoCounsel underwent a major upgrade in August and was updated with new features earlier this month.
