Extract from Reveal’s article “ZyLAB is now Reveal: A Full Circle Journey in Legal Technology and eDiscovery”
ZyLAB has long been recognized as a pioneer in eDiscovery and information governance, transforming the way organizations manage data and legal challenges. Founded in Chicago in 1983, ZyLAB’s journey has come full circle, returning to its roots while joining forces with Reveal, a global leader in legal technology. This integration brings together the best of both worlds, creating a unified solution to meet the growing demands of modern legal and corporate environments.
Innovating from the Start
ZyLAB’s story began with the groundbreaking ZyINDEX software, one of the first text-retrieval systems for personal computers. ZyLAB quickly became the go-to solution for corporate legal teams, government agencies, and law enforcement, thanks to its ability to quickly search vast amounts of electronic data. This innovative approach laid the foundation for decades of leadership in eDiscovery, compliance, and document management.
Through continual advancements like ZyIMAGE, which integrated OCR technology for more efficient data management, ZyLAB stayed at the forefront of innovation. Over the years, the company’s solutions grew to address more complex business processes, from contract management to litigation readiness.
