To spearhead this innovative venture, KPMG has made two strategic hires: Andy Giverin as Global Leader of Managed Legal Services, based in the UK, and Jeff Catanzaro as US Leader. These key appointments underscore KPMG's commitment to merging industry expertise with best-in-class legal AI technology in its managed legal services offering.

“We are excited about KPMG’s vision for the future state of managed legal services delivery. ContractPodAi has always aimed to revolutionize the way legal services are delivered and now we are transforming the industry as we know it,” said Sarvarth Misra, CEO of ContractPodAi. “Leah stands apart by our mission to set the market standard for vertical intelligence in legal: that is a combination of AI modelling for legal, deep engineering, inference and compute at scale and a full suite of legal intelligence applications designed for the future. This technology serves as a playbook for vertical SaaS, and we’re looking forward to seeing the impact this brings to KPMG and its clients around the globe.”

KPMG’s managed legal services business aims to accelerate legal intelligence processes, significantly reduce operational costs, and drive overall efficiencies. This approach will empower clients with actionable insights, providing them with a competitive edge in today's dynamic legal landscape.

Andy Giverin, Global Leader of Managed Legal Services at KPMG, emphasized the human-centric approach: "Our strategy focuses on developing LegalTech solutions that enhance lawyer capabilities rather than replace them. We're offering our clients a managed service that combines highly automated, swift contracting with the crucial element of human oversight – applying the right legal skills and judgment at the appropriate junctures. ContractPodAi's Leah Intelligence platform is instrumental in helping us achieve this balance."

This allows our clients to operate with greater agility, focus on strategic growth, and ultimately capture more value from their legal processes. These enhancements create measurable value for our clients, empowering them to move faster and smarter, enabling their businesses to thrive in a competitive environment."

As AI continues to transform legal and contracting operations, this strategic alliance positions both KPMG and ContractPodAi at the forefront of innovation in the rapidly evolving managed legal services market.
