As the demands of legal data management shift, legal professionals need technology that is ready to meet the challenge. In the latest episode of the EDRM Illumination Zone, HaystackID® Director of Product Management, Aaron Pribil, joined hosts Mary Mack, Kaylee Walstad, and Holley Robinson, to discuss his two-decade journey through software, data operations, and product leadership. Pribil shared how that breadth of experience has shaped the development of CoreFlex™, HaystackID’s unified interface for legal matter and data management.
Throughout the engaging conversation, Pribil emphasized the importance of flexibility and client-centric design in building legal tech tools that truly serve their users, sharing how CoreFlex was developed not in a vacuum but in close collaboration with clients who needed a scalable, secure, and efficient way to manage increasingly complex eDiscovery workflows.
“CoreFlex allows you to start with full service, but you can shift to more of a self-directed model as your internal capabilities grow. It gives firms and in-house teams the confidence to scale up or down without losing visibility or risk compliance,” Pribil said during the episode.
From reflections on digital transformation to practical strategies for building responsive, AI-enabled workflows, this episode offers valuable insights for legal professionals looking to streamline eDiscovery in our fast-changing industry. Listen to the full episode and hear how HaystackID is redefining control and collaboration in eDiscovery.
