Global language AI company DeepL said on Wednesday it has been adopted as the document translation engine for legal AI platform Harvey.

Harvey is a platform that provides AI-based legal services to global law firms and corporate legal teams. More than 200,000 lawyers use it at over 2,400 organisations in 70 countries.

Under the collaboration, Harvey users can upload documents within the platform and choose a language to translate into from more than 100 languages. The translation process reflects legal context and technical terms while preserving the original document’s structure and formatting.

DeepL plans to handle more than one-third of Harvey’s total document translation volume in the future.

Harvey cited DeepL’s context-based translation performance, custom glossary features and file format support as reasons for the adoption. DeepL does not permanently store enterprise and paid subscription customer data, and has a security framework including GDPR compliance and SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications.

Lauren Oh (로렌 오), a Harvey product manager, said, "Harvey customers routinely handle complex and critical documents, and among them document translation is the most frequently used feature." She added, "By integrating DeepL’s AI document translation into the Harvey platform, legal teams can work faster and more smoothly across multiple languages while maintaining document accuracy and completeness."

Jarek Kutylowski (야렉 쿠틸로브스키), DeepL’s founder and chief executive, said, "Legal work most often involves processing documents that run to hundreds of pages, in various formats and with complex context." He added, "DeepL was designed to handle this level of complexity."
