3 min readSources: LegalTech News

Litera launched AI-powered Microsoft Copilot plugins; Thomson Reuters integrated CUBE regulatory data.

Why it matters: These integrations embed AI and vast regulatory data into legal workflows, improving efficiency and compliance for in-house counsel and law firms.

  • Litera released Litera Compare and Firm AI Search as Microsoft Copilot for Legal plugins on Nov 10, 2026.
  • Litera uses Microsoft 365 E7 Frontier Suite to accelerate new feature delivery for law firms and corporate legal teams.
  • On Nov 12, 2026, Thomson Reuters integrated CUBE’s regulatory intelligence covering 12,000+ issuers across 750 jurisdictions into CoCounsel Legal.
  • CUBE provides insights from 250 experts, enriching Thomson Reuters’ Westlaw, Practical Law, and Reuters offerings.

Litera launched two AI-powered plugins, Litera Compare and Firm AI Search, for Microsoft Copilot for Legal on November 10, 2026. These tools integrate document comparison and internal firm knowledge features directly within Microsoft 365, targeting smoother review and research in legal practices. The plugins leverage Litera’s technology to enhance accuracy and search capabilities inside a familiar productivity environment.

To support these developments, Litera adopted Microsoft 365 E7 Frontier Suite, a cloud service that enables quicker rollout of AI features to legal teams. According to Joey Benedek, Litera’s Senior Vice President, this adoption reflects growing client demand for integrated AI tools that improve productivity without disrupting workflows.

Two days later, on November 12, Thomson Reuters expanded its regulatory intelligence offerings by integrating CUBE’s data into its CoCounsel Legal platform. CUBE collects regulatory updates from over 12,000 issuing bodies in 750 jurisdictions. It curates this data with the help of 250 subject matter experts.

Rawia Ashraf, Co-Head of Product at Thomson Reuters Legal, said this integration enriches content from Westlaw, Practical Law, and Reuters, helping legal professionals access comprehensive regulatory insights in a single interface.

CUBE’s CEO, Ben Richmond, noted that embedding trusted regulatory data is essential for AI-powered legal workflows and decision-making. These partnerships illustrate a broader legal tech trend: combining AI with authoritative content to streamline compliance and research tasks.

By the numbers:

  • 2 plugins—Litera Compare and Firm AI Search launched for Microsoft Copilot
  • 12,000+ issuing bodies and 750 jurisdictions—covered by CUBE's regulatory data
  • 250 experts—curate CUBE’s regulatory intelligence database

Yes, but: While these integrations enhance AI-driven legal workflows, the complexity of adopting new tools and training legal teams remains a challenge for some organizations.

What's next: Litera plans to expand AI capabilities within Microsoft Copilot, and Thomson Reuters intends to extend CUBE data coverage and deepen AI features in CoCounsel Legal through 2027.
