Harvey Unveils Legal AI Tools in Chicago
The legal AI company introduced Outlook agents, an Intake solution for in-house teams, and a planned iManage integration at a Chicago forum.
Updated on Nov. 7, 2026 in Artificial Intelligence
Harvey announced new legal AI features at a Chicago forum attended by more than 500 leaders. The company presented Outlook agents that sort email, draft replies, schedule meetings and start first-pass reviews.
Why it matters
The announcements extend AI tools into the daily email and contract-intake workflows of legal teams. A planned two-way iManage integration would keep iManage as the system of record while syncing completed work back to it.
Harvey's Connector Library became generally available on Oct. 21 and includes iManage among its connections. The Fact Graph links each recorded fact to its source, and Harvey Graph maps relationships across matters and projects.
The players
Harvey
Harvey is a legal artificial intelligence company that builds tools for law firms and in-house legal teams.
iManage
iManage is a document management platform widely used by law firms and corporate legal departments to store and govern client files.
The details
Harvey's Outlook agents operate within Outlook to sort email, draft replies, schedule meetings and start first-pass reviews. Its Intake solution collects details for contract requests, prepares redlines and routes work under rules each team sets.
Timeline
Oct. 21: Harvey's Connector Library became generally available.
Oct. 28: An Intake artifact for Claude for Legal launched.
Nov. 7, 2026: Announcements from the Chicago forum were published.
An iManage integration early access is expected soon.
The Tech Race
Harvey's agents operate inside Microsoft Outlook rather than in a separate application, placing legal AI within a mail platform used across corporate legal departments. The planned iManage integration positions Harvey alongside document-management systems that legal teams already depend on.
Legal staff who use Outlook could sort email, draft replies and schedule meetings with Harvey's agents without leaving the mail client. In-house teams could route contract requests through the Intake solution under their own rules.
The takeaway
Teams evaluating legal AI should check whether their document system, such as iManage, is supported by a connector before committing to a workflow. Keeping the document system as the record of truth can simplify compliance review.
What happens next
An early-access release of the iManage integration is expected soon, though no specific date was given.
