Brio AI Assistant, Natural Language Search & Event Notifications

  • Ask for documents in plain English instead of assembling filters — "the Acme scope doc from last spring".
  • Ask Brio about any engagement and get answers grounded in your own delivery data.
  • Your firm's daily brief now opens the Analytics tab, summarising what needs attention today.
  • Choose exactly which events email your team — document intake, status changes, client comments and more, per firm.
