NetDocuments, intelligent document management system (DMS) for legal professionals, announced new partnerships with Legora and Harvey through its innovative ndConnect partner program.
ndConnect is NetDocuments’ new interoperability program designed to enable legal professionals to securely and seamlessly integrate third-party AI solutions into their NetDocuments environment. By partnering with these leading companies, NetDocuments aims to deliver high-impact, value-driven use cases for shared customers, leveraging cutting-edge AI innovations and industry-leading integration models.
“Our intelligent DMS is built to power the next-generation of legal work,” said Dan Hauck, Chief Product Officer at NetDocuments. “ndConnect extends our unique document and AI capabilities to third-party AI vendors, while keeping the full protection, findability, and productivity of their foundational platform.”
ndConnect enables users to share select content from within NetDocuments, as well as save AI-generated work product back to the right location. Whether lawyers are initiating tasks like summarization or contract review, ndConnect ensures content remains securely anchored in the system of record, eliminating the need for duplicative downloads or external file handling.

ndConnect extends the power of the platform by enabling deeper, more secure interoperability. Key benefits include:
- Secure, Identity-Aware Integrations: Every connection respects user authentication and access rights ensuring document-level security and auditability.

- Enhanced Workflows with Embedded AI: ndConnect integrations bring AI into the heart of legal workflows — helping professionals act on documents in context, without duplicating content or introducing information governance risks.
“The ndConnect program will allow us to securely and efficiently connect our firm’s document collection — already managed within NetDocuments’ trusted platform — with generative AI tools like Harvey and other emerging technologies. This kind of innovation and integration helps us get even more value from our technology investments,” stated Harris Tilevitz, Chief Artificial Intelligence and Technology Officer at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP.
Creating a Collaborative Legal Tech Ecosystem
ndConnect represents a milestone in NetDocuments’ broader platform strategy, creating a pathway for customers and partners to work together on AI-powered use cases that are impactful, secure, and scalable.
