JND AutoRedact™ Emerges Victorious at the 2026 Relativity Innovation Awards

In a significant milestone for the legal tech industry, JND Legal Administration has announced that its innovative product, AutoRedact™, has been awarded the prestigious Relativity Innovation Award in the Act category during Relativity Fest 2026. This annual event is a premier gathering in the eDiscovery sector, spotlighting advancements in technology that drive efficiency and effectiveness in legal management.

AutoRedact™ leverages advanced artificial intelligence combined with deterministic rules to accurately identify and remove sensitive information from legal documents. Its capabilities extend to personal data and privileged content that may reside in images processed within Relativity aiR, the platform previously known as RelativityOne. Legal teams can seamlessly communicate their redaction requirements and conduct thorough testing on the results, allowing for fine-tuning and application of these procedures across extensive document sets.

One standout feature of AutoRedact™ is its specialized detector designed for handling data subject access requests (DSARs). This feature adeptly redacts personal information while ensuring that the requester’s own data remains visible—a common challenge faced in legal compliance that often consumes significant time resources.

The recognition garnered by AutoRedact™ symbolizes not only its cutting-edge capability but also the commitment of JND to innovation in the legal field. Ben Sexton, Senior Vice President of Innovation and Strategy at JND, expressed heartfelt gratitude to the team behind the tool, emphasizing their expertise and the relentless testing efforts that made the product a reality.

Jennifer Keough, CEO and Co-Founder of JND, echoed these sentiments, stating that innovation at JND has always been about creating tangible tools that yield measurable outcomes for clients. She highlighted AutoRedact™ as a prime example of the ingenuity and determination exhibited by the team, crediting their hard work for this success.

JND Legal Administration, headquartered in Seattle, has solidified its reputation as a leader in providing comprehensive eDiscovery solutions. The firm serves a diverse clientele, including corporations, law firms, and government entities, by enabling them to implement premier technologies to meet their unique operational challenges. With a suite of eDiscovery services tied to Relativity aiR, JND remains a prominent player in the legal services arena and is proud to be one of only two companies recognized as Relativity Platinum Provider Partners.

Notably, this award marks JND's second accolade at the Relativity Innovation Awards in three years, showcasing a consistent trajectory of performance and innovation. In 2024, Ben Sexton was honored with the Relativity Innovation Award in the Artificial Intelligence category for his pivotal role in embracing and advancing generative AI tools in the realm of eDiscovery.

As legal proceedings increasingly incorporate technology, tools like AutoRedact™ become indispensable. They not only enhance operational efficiency but also support organizations in maintaining compliance with evolving data protection regulations. JND encourages interested parties to schedule a demo of AutoRedact™ to explore its capabilities firsthand.
