SYDNEY, April 20, 2026 /CNW/ — Relativity, a legal data intelligence company, today announced plans to establish a Singapore entity, enabling local hiring and expanding its presence in Asia. The company is targeting a fourth-quarter launch. The news, shared at RelFest Sydney, underscores Relativity’s continued investment in strengthening engagement with customers and partners across Asia Pacific.

“At a time when data is exploding, AI is everywhere, and the conversation has shifted from ‘should we do this?’ to ‘how do we do it right?’ there’s no shortage of complexity,” said Phil Saunders, CEO of Relativity. “But the work doesn’t slow down, and the pipeline never pauses. At Relativity, we’ve built the AI platform for legal data intelligence — not as a tagline, but as the foundation of our company’s future. Every question our users ask, every challenge they tackle, shapes what we do and how we build — that’s what will drive us forward.”

Supporting APAC organisations through data growth and complexity

As enterprise data volumes in APAC increase, organisations are facing greater challenges in managing investigations, compliance and risk-related demands. At the same time, evolving regulations and heightened disclosure obligations are placing strain on legal and compliance teams, particularly in cross-border matters.

These pressures are reflected in rising activity levels. Whistleblower reports in APAC increased approximately 26% from 2021 to 2024, while data security incidents in APAC increased more than 25% between 2024 and 2025. In Australia, freedom of information requests rose 25% in FY24-25.

Against this backdrop, Relativity continues to expand its capabilities to meet a broader range of legal data intelligence use cases. By embedding AI across its products and workflows, the company is empowering teams to surface critical insights sooner, helping them reach key decisions faster and deliver greater value to their clients.

At RelFest Sydney, Chief Product Officer Chris Brown highlighted how Relativity’s AI platform for legal data intelligence is helping organisations navigate rapid data growth and regional complexities.

“Relativity is embedding AI into how legal work gets done — from data to insight to action — with the scale and defensibility required in markets like Australia and around the world,” said Chris Brown, Chief Product Officer at Relativity. “RelativityOne is both a system of record, preserving data and institutional knowledge, and a system of action, enabling that knowledge to compound and drive outcomes across the platform.”

Adoption of RelativityOne and Relativity aiR continues to increase as customers apply advanced capabilities to analyse complex datasets and manage large-scale productions. In ANZ, RelativityOne adoption increased 57% year over year, while Asia recorded a 46% increase over the same period. Across ANZ, documents reviewed using Relativity aiR for Review increased 2,200% year over year. This growth reflects that organisations have moved beyond experimentation and are now applying AI in product environments to modernize how legal work is executed at scale.

“AI has been a core part of discovery work for a decade, from technology assisted review to conceptual analytics. But the generative AI movement has amplified this,” said Adrian Agius, Director of Legal Informatics at Gilbert + Tobin. “It’s allowed us to accelerate the way in which we generate our value. It means that we don’t need as many physical resources, our cost base is reduced, but also that we can do a better job with the amount of time that we have. As data volumes increase, and we have no alternative way to work through that data, we need more powerful tools to do the job that we previously did.”

Turning real-world applications into product innovation

During the keynote, Relativity highlighted innovation across its platform. RelativityOne continues to evolve alongside its APAC customers, with each new matter strengthening its platform architecture and enabling greater scalability and defensibility in the region.

aiR Assist brings the power of natural language Q&A to RelativityOne, empowering legal teams to explore their data conversationally and rapidly uncover insights. By surfacing critical information, connections, and themes across large document sets, aiR Assist enables users to gain early case intelligence, reduce manual effort, accelerate outcomes, and strengthen decision-making throughout the lifecycle of a project. Currently in Advanced Access with more than 50 customers, aiR Assist is expected to become generally available later this year.

Custom analyses, also in Advanced Access, allow teams to define their own AI analyses through no-code, natural language prompts, empowering them to tailor aiR for Review’s scalable analytical capabilities to unique legal data intelligence use cases and business needs. Users can extract or assess nearly any data point across every individual document run through the tool, with support for both image and text-based content. These analyses can be applied to use cases such as extracting structured data from unstructured documents, identifying visual patterns in images or analysing handwritten content.

Organisations are already realising value from these capabilities. KordaMentha, for example, was tasked with preparing seven chronologies across different aspects of a case. Historically, building this level of understanding would require significant time and close reliance on client input. Using aiR Assist and Relativity aiR for Case Strategy, the team was able to identify key individuals, map relationships and analyse complex financial instruments to better understand how they functioned within the case. As a result, KordaMentha completed all seven chronologies in approximately five to six hours – work that would previously have taken several weeks.

“Combining aiR for Review, aiR for Case Strategy and aiR Assist gives us a comprehensive solution that enables deeper case understanding before review even begins,” said Roman Barbera, Partner at KordaMentha. “aiR helps us deliver clearer, more strategic insights aligned to our clients’ objectives.”

In the keynote, Relativity reinforced aiR for Case Strategy’s ability to support both early, structured issue analysis and late-stage case understanding. This includes mapping issues, facts and evidence from the outset so teams can clearly see strengths, gaps and risks as a matter progresses, supported by the development of issues matrices within aiR for Case Strategy.

World IP Day 2026: PitchMark launches Ideas.Exchange to help creators safeguard and license ideas in the age of AI

Published

April 26, 2026

SINGAPORE, April 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — To mark World IP Day 2026, PitchMark® today launched Ideas.Exchange, a first‑of‑its‑kind platform designed to help creators assert intellectual property rights, license ideas, and formalise creative conversations in an increasingly AI‑driven economy.

Unveiled at Safeguard Your IP in the Age of AI, a media briefing hosted by CNBC’s Sri Jegarajah, the platform responds to growing concern that ideas are routinely used, reused or absorbed without attribution, consent or compensation—often with limited legal or commercial recourse.

“AI has amplified both the reach and the risk for creators,” said Mark Laudi, Managing Partner of PitchMark LLP. “Ideas.Exchange gives creators a way to protect themselves while still participating confidently in the market for ideas.”

At its core, the platform focuses on three interventions for creators:

Asserting IP rights by establishing proof of authorship and precedenceLicensing ideas without giving them away for freeFormalising conversations so pitches and evaluations are governed rather than informal

Ideas.Exchange is powered by three proprietary resources developed by PitchMark. These include a blockchain‑driven clearing house where ideas and creative works can be listed and licensed; smart contracts that automate usage terms and reduce disputes; and an IP Governance Certification Program designed to signal responsible handling of ideas, particularly in enterprise and AI contexts.

The result, PitchMark says, is three concrete outcomes: deterrence of idea theft, new ways to monetise ideas through structured licensing and price discovery, and a more level playing field that allows creators to pitch to clients and platforms on equal terms.

The launch comes amid renewed scrutiny of how intellectual property is treated in the AI era. While idea theft is rarely reported, its impact is significant. Beyond visible financial losses, organisations and creators often absorb hidden costs through talent attrition, innovation suppression and abandoned market opportunities.

“Most idea theft occurs informally and never reaches the courts,” said Prof David Llewelyn, Professor Emeritus of Law at Singapore Management University. “Introducing governance, traceability and standards is a meaningful step toward addressing that gap.”

Spokespeople including Prof Llewelyn, technology lawyer Bryan Ghows, and Mark Laudi are available for interview.

About PitchMark

PitchMark® deters idea theft and enables creatives to get paid by providing a trusted way to share and license ideas with prospects and clients.

NCL (Formerly Natural Cure Labs) Unveils New Brand Identity, Reinforcing Its Position as a Leading Monolaurin Supplement Company

April 25, 2026

By

Natural Cure Labs, one of the most recognized monolaurin supplement brands in the United States, is officially transitioning to NCL – the same company, same formulations, and same science-backed standards, under a streamlined name.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., April 25, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Natural Cure Labs, one of the most recognized monolaurin supplement brands in the United States, is officially transitioning to NCL. The company, founded in 2015, is adopting a streamlined brand identity while maintaining the same formulations, manufacturing standards, team, and commitment to quality its customers have trusted for more than a decade.

“NCL represents the quality, transparency, and innovation that our community expects from us. As we enter this new chapter, our commitment to our customers and our standards remains as strong as ever.”

NCL stands for Natural Cure Labs. The name change reflects how customers and the team already refer to the company. Over the past 10+ years, “NCL” has become the natural shorthand for Natural Cure Labs – and this transition formalizes that identity. This is a name change and visual evolution only. Ownership, leadership, formulations, and values remain unchanged.

Same Mission, Sharper Identity

This transition is not a departure from who the company is – it is a natural progression. The values that have guided NCL from the very beginning remain unchanged: clean-label quality, third-party testing, science-backed formulations, and an unwavering commitment to transparency. What is changing is how the company presents itself. In the months ahead, this rebrand will be accompanied by further updates across the brand experience – from visual identity and packaging to how NCL shows up across every channel and platform. Each of these changes will reflect the same standard of excellence customers have come to expect.

In the months ahead, this rebrand will be accompanied by further updates across the brand experience – from visual identity and packaging to how NCL shows up across every channel and platform. Each of these changes will reflect the same standard of excellence customers have come to expect.

More Than 10 Years of Trust

This evolution comes at a time of significant momentum. Since 2015, NCL has grown from a small startup into an award-winning wellness brand available nationwide through Amazon, Walmart, Target+, TikTok Shop, eBay, and other major marketplaces. Along the way, the company has reached milestones that reflect the trust its community has placed in it:

200,000+ customers served worldwide35+ million capsules sold7,000+ verified customer reviewsRecognition in the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companiesMultiple Stevie Awards from the American Business AwardsNamed a 2025 and 2026 Gator100 HonoreeThree-time Global 100 winner for Best Health & Wellness Nutrition Manufacturer

“This rebrand isn’t about changing who we are – it’s about evolving how we present ourselves to match the brand our customers already know and trust,” said Damon Sununtnasuk, Founder & CEO.

What This Means for Customers

For existing customers, nothing changes about the products they know and trust. The same formulations, manufacturing facilities, quality controls, and customer support team remain in place. Products sold as Natural Cure Labs and products sold as NCL are from the same company. Customers can continue to find NCL products on the company’s website and through Amazon, Walmart, Target+, Kroger, eBay, and other major marketplaces.

NCL is grateful for every customer who has been part of this journey and is excited for what is to come.
