CLOC Compass gives AI adoption a maturity model

CLOC launched Compass with Neota Logic as a beta tool for assessing legal-ops maturity across the Core 12 framework. CLOC’s related 2026 State of the Industry findings said demand is surging, budgets are not keeping pace, headcount is flat and 80 percent of legal departments cite technology strategy as a top priority. Midmarket law firms should read that as client-side demand for structured implementation help, not just faster matter delivery.
