Without a crystal ball, it’s impossible to predict with absolute certainty the outcome of any legal process. But AI is getting pretty close.
A startup in Israel has developed an algorithm that is currently 85 percent accurate in assessing liability and in predicting how a case will conclude. That number will only increase as the AI handles more cases.
“Litigation is a very unknown territory,” says Yariv Lissauer, CEO at Haifa-based Canotera and a former lawyer with vast experience in the startup world.
“There are a lot of unknowns, a lot of complications, a lot of regulations and decrees. But at the end of the day, most cases are based on facts that happened in the past and that need to be put into a regulatory framework that already exists. When you step into court, you have no idea how you will get out. That’s an anomaly we’re trying to fix.”
Canotera CTO Tal Knafo is a Technion alum.
