TransPerfect Legal and Merlin Search Technologies Announce Partnership

Integration of TransPerfect’s Reef ECA Technology with Merlin’s Alchemy Discovery Platform Enables End-to-End Litigation Support

TransPerfect Legal, the global leader in legal technology, AI, and advisory services, announced an integration with Merlin Search Technologies to incorporate Reef ECA into Merlin’s flagship Alchemy platform. Merlin will deploy Reef ECA as the processing engine across all Alchemy cloud instances.

The integration gives legal teams a unified workflow from data ingestion through GenAI-powered review without managing multiple systems or vendor handoffs. Reef ECA, TransPerfect Legal’s proprietary eDiscovery processing platform, culls data at scale and reduces document sets by over 90% on average during early case assessment. Merlin’s software, Alchemy, then applies AI models to find, review, and analyze the resulting dataset and return answers in seconds rather than days or weeks.

“We’re excited to offer Reef ECA to handle our clients’ processing needs. It’s a proven, high-volume platform that processes every data type legal teams encounter today,” said John Tredennick, Founder and CEO of Merlin Search Technologies. “That allows us to focus on what we do best: using AI to help legal teams find, review, and analyze documents and deliver actionable answers rather than search results.”

TransPerfect President and Co-CEO Phil Shawe commented, “Clients want reduced complexity in eDiscovery. Combining Reef early case assessment processing with Merlin’s AI capabilities gives customers a simple and intuitive solution, without sacrificing control and compliance.”
