What Consilio does

Consilio is a private, PE-backed provider of eDiscovery software, managed document review, legal talent, and advisory services headquartered in Washington, DC. The company serves Fortune 500 corporate legal departments, AmLaw 100 law firms, and regulated industries including Financial Services, Pharmaceutical/Life Sciences/Healthcare, Insurance, Transportation & Mobility, Consumer Brands, and Technology, with operations across 25+ countries, 15 data centers, and 5,400+ employees. Its flagship product is the Aurora Legal AI Suite, which integrates proprietary modules (AI Investigate, AI PrivDetect, AI PrivGen, AI Summarize, Guided AI Review, Aurora Verity Review) with foundation-model connectors including Anthropic's Claude via Model Context Protocol, sitting on a data substrate of nearly 100 petabytes of client matter data and 10,000+ active users.

Consilio generates revenue through a mix of managed services (eDiscovery, document review, analytics, cyber incident response), professional services (legal transformation, risk management and compliance), and recurring platform licensing of the Aurora technology stack. Pricing is quote-based and tied to matter complexity, data volume, and service scope under multi-year enterprise contracts. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales supported by regional hubs in London, Frankfurt, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Singapore, Sydney, and Dubai, with channel partnerships through Reveal, Prevail, Anthropic, and elaw.

The business has been built through sustained PE-backed M&A since 2015, including Huron Legal, Advanced Discovery, DiscoverReady, Xact Data Discovery, Legility, Special Counsel/D4/EQ, Lawyers On Demand/SYKE, and TrueLaw. Consilio is controlled by GI Partners (since the 2018 Advanced Discovery merger), with prior principal investor Shamrock Capital Advisors. The company reported Q3 2025 revenue of $290 million, down approximately 3.6% year-over-year primarily due to loss of US government contracts.
