SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Laurel and Thomson Reuters, a global content and technology company, today announced a partnership to address what has become the next great challenge for law firms: measuring the business impact of AI-powered legal work. Thomson Reuters brings proprietary content, technology and expertise. Laurel brings AI-native work intelligence built for the way attorneys actually work today. Together, they bring the most innovative end-to-end solution to law firms globally. As law firms accelerate AI adoption, many still struggle to connect AI usage with measurable outcomes. Thomson Reuters legal solutions, including CoCounsel Legal, help attorneys work more efficiently and gain deeper insights. Laurel’s work intelligence platform records activity as it happens, in the background, on devices — time spent in email, documents, calls, and applications including Thomson Reuters products — automatically classifying it by client and matter and turning it into ready-to-review timesheets, real-time profitability insight, and AI ROI measurement.

While firms can see who uses AI tools and how often demonstrating the operational and financial impact of those investments remains challenging. Laurel and Thomson Reuters are helping close that gap by creating visibility into the full lifecycle of AI-powered legal work, giving firms a clearer understanding of efficiency gains, matter performance, profitability, and return on technology investments.

For law firms, the partnership delivers value across the organization:

Attorneys gain seamless visibility into work performed across research, analysis, drafting, communications, and collaboration activities.Partners can identify scope creep, profitability risks, and matter performance trends while work is still underway.

Finance and operations leaders gain a real-time view of matter economics and delivery performance. Managing partners, CFOs, COOs, and directors of finance can evaluate AI investments using measurable outcomes rather than adoption metrics alone.

This partnership represents a broader evolution in how law firms evaluate technology investments. As AI becomes embedded in legal workflows, firms need more than usage and statistics; they need trusted evidence of impact. Combining Laurel’s work intelligence with Thomson Reuters Fiduciary-Grade AI provides firms with transparency and measurement capabilities needed to understand how AI influences legal work, client service and firm performance.

“Law firms have been running AI investments and business operations as two separate systems that were never designed to talk to each other. That ends today. Thomson Reuters brings the tools attorneys rely on to do legal work. Laurel captures that work and makes it visible: how time is spent, where write-down risk is building, and whether the firm’s AI investments are pulling their weight. Firm leaders have never had that picture before. Now they do.”

— Ryan Alshak, CEO & Co-Founder, Laurel

“Thomson Reuters has built one of the most trusted and deeply embedded research and technology platforms in the global legal industry. At Laurel, we’re focused on the business of law, helping firms understand how time is spent and measure the impact of AI on how legal work is produced and monetized. Together, we’re bringing the practice and business of law closer together, giving firm leaders a clearer understanding of the ROI of AI, where it creates the most value, and where human expertise has the greatest impact.”

— Kourosh Zamani, Co-Founder & Head of Partnerships, Laurel

“Our customers know that Fiduciary-Grade AI is improving firm efficiency and work product quality. Through our partnership with Laurel, firms gain greater visibility into how AI-powered legal work contributes to operational and business performance, helping them measure the value of their technology investments. That insight is increasingly important. Our research found that while AI adoption among legal professionals continues to grow, many organizations still struggle to connect AI usage to measurable business outcomes. Together, we’re helping firms better understand, demonstrate, and maximize that value.”

— Camillo Speroni, Head of Partnerships & Alliances, Thomson Reuters

ProBuilt TMS Introduces AI-Powered Compliance System: From Driver Application Through Corrective Action

Published

on

By

THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ProBuilt Software Inc. today announced the ProBuilt TMS Compliance System, which manages driver compliance from application through qualification, credential monitoring, safety events and corrective action. Powered by Claude AI from Anthropic, it inspects driver documents and inserts exact FMCSA regulation codes into disciplinary letters.

Most TMS compliance systems focus on document storage, expiration tracking and safety-event records. ProBuilt TMS goes deeper by seamlessly connecting driver applications, FMCSA due diligence, road testing, prior-employer inquiries, dispatch, claims and disciplinary action within one system.

The online application portal links to a carrier’s website. Applicants can upload CDL and Medical Card images. Applicants provide all information required by FMCSA through the online application.

Safety personnel can document MVR, PSP and UA reviews, road tests and prior-employer Requests for Information, including efforts to obtain safety and performance information. Road tests can be completed through the ProBuilt TMS mobile app, with certificates issued directly to drivers.

The system tracks CDLs, Hazardous Materials Endorsements, MVRs, TWIC Cards, FAST Cards and Medical Cards. It also interacts with dispatch so qualification and expiration issues can be addressed during daily operations.

ProBuilt Compliance manages cargo claims, incidents and accidents. Drivers can submit events through the ProBuilt DRV mobile app, and safety personnel can request driver statements through the app. Records can include details, costs, documents, photos, chargebacks and disciplinary action.

When disciplinary action is required, ProBuilt’s Claude-powered technology can generate policy reminders, official warnings, suspension letters and termination letters. The AI identifies the FMCSA regulation tied to the violation and inserts the exact regulation code into the letter. For example, an Hours-of-Service warning can cite 49 CFR § 395.3(a)(3), which limits a driver to 11 hours of driving after 10 consecutive hours off duty. Drivers can electronically sign the completed correspondence.

“Compliance begins when the driver applies and continues throughout the driver’s employment,” said Michael Till, Founder and CEO of ProBuilt Software Inc. “We built ProBuilt Compliance to help carriers manage that entire process in one system.”

ProBuilt Software Inc. develops ProBuilt TMS for carriers and freight brokers.

Neutrinos Recognized in The Adaptive Process Orchestration Software Landscape, Q2 2026

Published

By

Recognition reflects the growing shift from fragmented automation to AI-native enterprise orchestration in insurance operations.

NEW YORK and SINGAPORE, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Neutrinos, a leader in AI-powered intelligent automation for insurers, has been recognized among notable vendors in Forrester’s The Adaptive Process Orchestration Software Landscape, Q2 2026 report. The report provides an overview of 35 vendors in the Adaptive Process Orchestration (APO) software market.

The recognition comes as enterprises increasingly seek orchestration platforms that can connect AI agents, workflows, decisioning, integrations, and enterprise systems within a governed operational framework.

As the Forrester report author Bernhard Schaffrik, Principal Analyst, wrote in the report, “APO enables organizations to embed genAI into their automation landscape, allowing them to automate increasingly complex processes and improve decision quality. By consolidating fragmented automation tools into a unified, governed backbone, APO helps leaders scale automation confidently, maintain control, and prevent unmanaged AI agent sprawl.”

Across underwriting, claims, policy servicing, and distribution, insurers are moving beyond isolated AI pilots toward enterprise-wide operational transformation. As AI adoption grows, organizations need a governed orchestration layer that coordinates AI agents, workflows, enterprise systems, and human decisions – while maintaining compliance, operational resilience, and business agility.

As insurers increasingly move from AI experimentation to enterprise-scale adoption, the focus is shifting from isolated automation initiatives to adaptive orchestration. The APO category reflects this evolution, helping organizations operationalize AI with greater governance, agility, and scalability across complex business environments.

“Insurers are under increasing pressure to improve operational efficiency, shorten cycle times, and deliver better customer experiences while managing increasingly complex technology environments,” said Suresh Chandrasekharan, Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer, Neutrinos. “The conversation has shifted from deploying individual AI capabilities to orchestrating AI, people, systems, and business processes at enterprise scale. We believe our inclusion in the Forrester APO Landscape reflects Neutrinos’ alignment with these evolving priorities, and the growing need for AI-native orchestration platforms that can unify agents, systems, workflows, and decision-making within a scalable operational framework.”

Neutrinos enables insurers to orchestrate AI agents, workflows, data, integrations, and enterprise decisions through its Coreless System of Execution (CSoE). By connecting existing core systems rather than replacing them, the platform helps insurers modernize incrementally. It improves operational agility, accelerates process execution, and enables AI adoption across underwriting, claims, policy servicing, distribution, and new business operations while maintaining governance and operational control.

Organizations using the Neutrinos platform have reported significant business improvements, including up to a 50% increase in operational efficiency, up to 70% faster time-to-market for new insurance products, and up to a 3x improvement in straight-through processing (STP) rates. These customer outcomes demonstrate how enterprise orchestration can help insurers improve execution across core business operations.

Purpose-built for insurers, the Neutrinos platform is uniquely designed to manage and orchestrate all agents, not just those built on Neutrinos.
