Mary Technology launches new FMS feature

The new feature includes automation that splits, categorises, and summarises large evidence bundles within minutes and is now live for all users.

This news follows Mary Technology securing pre-seed funding of $2.7 million, after a $1.36 million pre-seed extension was backed by existing investors last month.

Mary Technology officially launched its Fact Management System (FMS) into the legal profession earlier this year, a new legal tech category addressing “fact chaos”.

Fact chaos is where crucial legal information becomes lost within huge amounts of disorganised documents, causing inefficiencies, increased risk, and frustration for lawyers and their clients.

FMS directly addresses fact chaos by automatically converting large amounts of unstructured data (such as contracts, emails, transcripts, and internal communications) into a structured, searchable chronology. The system also integrates with existing practice and document management systems (PMS and DMS).

The Document Index automatically splits up large bundles of documents, renaming, classifying and categorising them, providing a brief description and highlighting how relevant the document is to a matter. The feature also lets users filter, sort and search through documents, as well as do things like view all the email correspondence between two people in chronological order between two dates using the quick document viewer capability.

Co-founder and head of product Luke Abagi said the new feature would eliminate much of the manual work teams currently undertake when dealing with large amounts of documents.

“Legal teams are overwhelmed by the sheer volume of documentation they handle every day. We built the Document Index to eliminate that manual burden – so they can spend less time sorting files and more time building stronger cases,” he said.

“This launch is a major step toward our vision of delivering a fully integrated, end-to-end fact management system for law firms.”

Once documents are indexed, files are put through Mary’s AI-powered chronology tool, enabling firms to quickly generate structured timelines with precise citations.

Paralegals and junior lawyers benefit from instant triage and sorting, while senior lawyers can quickly identify relevant materials and focus on legal strategy. Firms using Mary are reporting an average time saving of 72 per cent on chronology preparation tasks, according to chief operating officer and co-founder Rowan McNamee.

“As a former lawyer, I know how much time is lost manually sorting evidence and building chronologies. With the Document Index, we’re giving legal teams instant structure – turning chaotic bundles into organised, searchable insight within minutes,” he said.
