Legacy claim assessment · corrected
Source-bound correction under exact-citation continuity: the legacy source URL is the same Microsoft LAIA case. Narrow this record to the named legal-search initiative documented there. Original automated compliance flags, regulatory-change detection and cross-jurisdiction consistency guarantees remain unsupported.

Measures & evidence
No quantified measure recorded. This is a gap in the evidence, not a finding of no value.
Documented vendor relationships
No vendor relationship has been linked to this specific workflow in the curated overlay. This does not mean it was built without vendors.

Vendor case dated 2025-03-25 describes employees using LAIA semantic legal retrieval and an ongoing global expansion. Status as of 2025-03-25.
Stage is as reported in the cited evidence. Current operating status has not been independently reconfirmed; the research date is an editorial review date.
The original compliance-review automation, regulatory-monitoring and consistency claims are not supported by the cited LAIA legal-retrieval case. Repository size is not per-period processing throughput; no causal savings estimate retained. Merge identity follows exact original citation continuity; it does not validate the originally asserted compliance functions.
