WOLF AI is positioned as a workflow-specific case-intelligence layer for plaintiff-side FCA teams. General AI tools are broad assistants, while eDiscovery systems are generally centered on collection, processing, search, review, and production across many dispute types.

WOLF AI is a software company, not a law firm. This page is educational and is not legal advice.

## How the workflow is structured

1. Use eDiscovery or existing storage for the document-management scope it actually covers.
2. Use WOLF AI to structure source-linked FCA work product where the early-stage product supports the workflow.
3. Use attorney review to validate every output and resolve legal significance.
4. Keep the systems of record and approval responsibilities explicit during a pilot.

## Important limitations

- This is a category-level comparison, not a claim about every vendor or configuration.
- WOLF AI is not represented as replacing eDiscovery, legal research, or counsel.
- Integration and feature coverage must be confirmed for the specific firm environment.
