Official Announcement: Transpire Delivers AI-Assisted Story Building with Case Concepts
New release makes Transpire the most comprehensive post-discovery platform on the market.
Chicago, Ill. – March 21, 2025. Transpire Technologies today announced the general availability of version 4 of its online litigation support platform and the introduction of the Case Concepts™ AI-assisted story building feature. Building upon Transpire’s robust evidence management functionality, Case Concepts adds a new story-based workflow to help lawyers at every phase of litigation learn, understand, and prove what transpired.
“Case Concepts puts Transpire into an entirely new class of products,” said Peter Moore, Transpire’s founder and Chief Technology Officer, and a former litigation attorney. “Users can now construct and track the entire factual and evidentiary landscape of a case from start to finish, prepare for depositions and dispositive motions, and get ready for trial all in a single tool.”
At the heart of Case Concepts is the story-centric workflow, complementing the more familiar document-centric workflow typical of e-discovery platforms. “Facts” serve as the fundamental unit of knowledge, “concepts” organize facts, and “links” track the relationship between concepts, facts, and supporting evidence. Together these form an electronic web of knowledge from which users can automatically generate critical work product on demand, such as chronologies, cross examination outlines, and trial exhibit lists.
When linked to a generative AI service, Case Concepts delivers an unprecedented level of productivity by analyzing deposition transcripts to extract facts, people, key events, and other data. Transpire’s AI assistant can also draft factual summaries – with formal citations and links to supporting evidence – according to any user-defined scope, generating detailed and highly accurate narratives covering multiple transcripts and other evidentiary sources. The AI produces output suitable either for internal use among the team, or, once the underlying facts and evidence links are validated by human users, which can serve as a springboard for legal briefs, closing arguments, and more.
“Transpire’s key differentiators in its use of AI are two-fold,” Moore said. “First, unlike most chatbots or standalone summarization tools, AI-generated content is integrated into the larger workflow and lives as part of the story alongside manually created work-product and the supporting evidence, as determined by the user. Second, and maybe more importantly, users can easily track which content has been human-validated or not and ensure that non-validated AI content never makes its way into the final output. This highly productive yet carefully curated use of AI is just what we think the legal industry needs and frankly is demanding.” Clients and partners can opt to use Transpire with their own trained AI models, allowing for ultimate control over the sovereignty of their data, or use an off-the-shelf service such as Azure OpenAI.
Since launching its first online product in 2020, Transpire has established relationships both directly with law firms and with key strategic partners. Most notably, Transpire teamed with Epiq to power its post-discovery managed SaaS product, EpiqTMX, which will likewise be adding the Case Concepts feature suite in March 2025. Having enjoyed tremendous success in the international e-hearings and arbitration markets, Epiq plans to leverage Case Concepts to redefine post-discovery litigation support in the United States as well as internationally.
“Transpire has been a valued strategic partner over the past five years in Epiq’s efforts to provide technology and services for clients at every phase of litigation globally,” said Ziad Mantoura, SVP and GM of Epiq’s Enterprise Legal and Consulting Solutions. “Transpire is an ideal choice to support EpiqTMX services and SaaS offerings.”
Transpire is available for sale directly to legal practices for self-hosted deployments, or through partners such as Epiq and select trial consulting service providers. Transpire is also actively seeking additional partners in the United States, particularly in the advisory, court reporting, and trial support areas. “Our mission as a company is not to put every lawyer’s data under our roof, but instead to help build an ecosystem of technology and services for post-discovery practice – fueled by strong partnerships – as rich as that of the e-discovery world,” Moore said.

Is this the post-discovery world you live in?
If this is your world, suffer the hellscape no longer. The post-discovery world changes forever March 7.
E-discovery has world-class consultants. Sleek, simple, elegant software tools. Top-notch support. A process as organized and painless as it can possibly be.
In court, trial consultants bring life to cases and keep the jury visually engaged.
But between those two? A wasteland of support. A hodgepodge of legacy and single purpose tools. Insecure data storage. Spreadsheets. Copies of the same deposition exhibit printed and marked up dozens of times by dozens of lawyers scattered across the floor.
A barren hellscape for practitioners.
That changes March 7th.
Stay tuned.

Transpire’s Relativity Connector: Changing the Game for Litigators and Service Providers
By integrating with Relativity, we can finally offer our partners and customers an uninterrupted workflow and an unprecedented level of access to their data at the most critical stages of litigation.
We recently announced the integration of our ground-breaking trial support platform with the market leading e-discovery platform, Relativity®. The new connector API for Relativity and RelativityOne allows users of both platforms to pull search results, production sets and document folders into their Transpire workspace directly from their Relativity workspace.
Because the transition from the discovery phase to post-discovery work involves different goals, stakeholders and evidence, the workflow has historically been disjointed. This integration reflects litigation’s true nature as a continuum.
Why is moving from discovery to trial so challenging?
The lion’s share of cases don’t make it to trial. But for those that survive Summary Judgment, the stakes are higher than ever.
As an industry, we have gotten really good at doing discovery. Litigation support professionals and service providers are adept at managing large volumes of data and delivering a relevant and responsive package of documents in accordance with clearly defined and understood rules, using software built specifically with this goal in mind. We have well-documented best practices. We even have a model for it. We are killing it.
Once a case proceeds beyond discovery, a very different set of considerations comes into view and those amazing document productions are only part of the picture.
Organizing piles of client documents, sifting through production load files for case-critical facts and parsing deposition transcripts for key testimony now top the task list - typically with a shockingly limited amount of time to check them off. Creating a reliable timeline of events, assembling a fundamental working outline and creating exhibits are key to crafting a winning strategy.
Making deposition designations and comparing objections, building reports and e-briefs, creating chronologies managing facts, designing and labeling exhibits, creating clips and presenting them for any reason … Discovery software was not designed with any of this in mind, and so managing data throughout the lifecycle of litigation has been a clunky hodgepodge of disparate pieces of-off-the-shelf software and homegrown workarounds for as long as anyone can remember.
The absence of a seamless and integrated workflow opens the door to risk of data loss, inconsistencies, and the need for redundant work as information is transferred from one platform to another. Delays and increased costs are also a legitimate concern as legal teams scramble to reformat or reprocess data to fit the requirements of trial presentation software. And, if the technology used in trial preparation does not fully support the strategic goals of the trial, such as creating compelling visual aids or ensuring smooth presentation of evidence, the persuasiveness of the case can be compromised.
Building Bridges
Case teams first use Transpire throughout the deposition phase, while working through discovery in their e-discovery workspace. As key production documents are identified, they are pulled into Transpire for use as deposition exhibits and presented to participants alongside the integrated Real Time feed.
Once connected to a Relativity or Relativity One instance, permissioned users can build a clear and multidimensional picture of the story while preparing to tell it to a judge or jury with uninterrupted access to discovery documents, outlines, timelines, pleadings and testimony.
When discovery is complete and trial preparation kicks into high gear, any remaining production documents are likewise promoted to prospective trial exhibits, giving every stakeholder a single gateway to substantively review, analyze, and annotate all evidence in the case collaboratively and securely, from anywhere, without ever leaving the tool.
This integration completes the first seamless workflow for case-critical data from complaint to closing argument, allowing Relativity’s global community of practitioners and litigation support partners quickly and easily pull production images, natives, and metadata directly from Relativity and into Transpire for use in depositions and trial, without cumbersome export/import steps, and no fidelity loss to the original data. Messy handoffs resulting in loss of precious time and work product are now a thing of the past for users of both platforms.
Transpire is a Relativity Developer Partner with a listing on the Relativity App Hub, which includes integrations built by Relativity and its community.
Relativity Fest is right around the corner. You’ll find us in the Developer Bar at the show.
