Harvey September 2 Release: iManage Search, 130+ New Research Sources, Client Matter Governance

Harvey's September 2, 2026 release notes confirm a significant platform update: native iManage search integration enabling users to search their firm's iManage content directly from Harvey and the Harvey Word add-in; over 130 new legal research sources expanding jurisdictional coverage; and client matter governance enhancements. The Word add-in gained the ability to apply suggestions from previous sessions, reducing re-prompting overhead on multi-session document reviews. The iManage search integration is particularly significant — it operationalizes the Harvey-iManage technology partnership (announced June 2025) at the feature level for all users, making firm document context directly accessible during legal AI workflows without file transfer or export steps. For Harvey's enterprise accounts, the governance enhancements (client matter scoping) address the key procurement objection that AI tools lack the permission granularity required for multi-client firm environments.
