Case Study: Lighthouse achieves 65% lower translation costs with Relativity

LSI'S Hybrid Translation Process Cut the Standard Cost of Translations by 65%

Lighthouse, a leading eDiscovery provider for Fortune 100 companies and Am Law 100 firms, faced an investigation in Russia involving 159 custodians and millions of documents in English, Russian, and other foreign languages. After reducing the data set by more than 93%, Lighthouse still needed fast English translations to review hundreds of thousands of documents, and turned to Relativity with LSI’s Translation Plug-in to streamline the process.

Relativity’s translation solution, combined with a client glossary and a light manual quality check, automated and optimized machine translation for the Russian documents, cutting the relevant Russian file count from 74,492 to just 314. The hybrid workflow cut the standard cost of translations by 65% and helped Lighthouse save clients millions of dollars each year.
