Case Study: Schaff achieves 90% cost reduction and first-pass review in 3 weeks with DecoverAI

Schaff cuts review time to 3 weeks and saves over $1M with DecoverAI

Schaff, a law firm representing a homeowners' association, faced the immense challenge of reviewing over 1TB of data—more than one million diverse files—for a multi-party construction defect lawsuit. A traditional managed document review was projected to take 4-6 months and cost between $1.5 million and $2.5 million, which was unsustainable for their litigation timeline.

DecoverAI implemented its AI-powered eDiscovery and document review platform to process the entire corpus. The solution ingested and indexed the diverse file types, configured to detect construction defect patterns and trace liability across multiple parties. As a result, DecoverAI enabled first-pass review to be completed in just 2-3 weeks at a cost of under 5 cents per document, saving over $1 million and allowing the litigation team to surface critical evidence rapidly.
