Litera launched Foundation 365, an AI-powered CRM platform for law firms built into Microsoft 365, on June 3, 2026.

Litera, a legal technology provider serving over 15,000 global customers, launched Foundation 365. The platform brings AI-powered client relationship management directly into Microsoft 365 tools including Outlook, Teams, and Copilot. It is built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 and designed to help law firms identify and act on business development opportunities without switching applications.

Law firms have long struggled to get attorneys to use CRM tools consistently because those tools sit outside their daily workflow. Foundation 365 addresses this by embedding relationship data inside the applications lawyers already use every day.

What Foundation 365 Does

Foundation 365 gives law firms a real-time view of client relationships across Microsoft 365. It helps firms answer three specific questions: which relationships are strong, which need attention, and who is best positioned to make contact.

The platform surfaces this data inside Microsoft Outlook, Teams, and Copilot. Attorneys can access client intelligence while preparing for a meeting or during a live call, without leaving their current tools.

Microsoft Partnership

Foundation 365 is built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 and integrates with Microsoft 365 Copilot. Litera holds the 2025-2026 Microsoft AI Business Solutions Inner Circle Award, a recognition earned by less than 1% of Microsoft's global partner network.

Karan Nigam, Head of Product Marketing for Agentic Customer Experience at Microsoft, said: "Through our collaboration with Litera, we're helping legal professionals securely access relationship intelligence and client insights within Microsoft 365. Built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Copilot integration, Foundation 365 brings actionable intelligence into the tools lawyers use every day, enabling them to identify and act on opportunities more efficiently."

Adoption and Reach

Foundation 365 is trusted by five of the Global Top 10 Law Firms. Litera serves more than 4,000 law firms worldwide and has over 2.3 million daily users including 99% of the Am Law 100, a ranking of the top 100 law firms in the United States by revenue.

Grant Hewlett, VP of Product for Firm Intelligence at Litera, said: "Foundation 365 brings client and relationship data directly into Microsoft 365 Copilot so attorneys and business development professionals have the most relevant, accurate information at their fingertips, whether they're preparing for a meeting or on a live client call."

Lewis Davies, CRM Manager at Womble Bond Dickinson, a law firm using the platform, noted that Foundation 365 gives each team the flexibility to track relationships and opportunities in a way that suits them and has raised the bar for the firm.
