ComplexDiscovery OÜ Launches Winter 2025 eDiscovery Pricing Survey, Exploring Generative AI’s Impact on Pricing Models

Survey to Benchmark Costs and Explore the Impact of Generative AI on eDiscovery Pricing Models

TALLINN, ESTONIA, February 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- ComplexDiscovery OÜ, a leading source for insights into cybersecurity, information governance, and eDiscovery, today announced the launch of its Winter 2025 eDiscovery Pricing Survey. Now in its thirteenth edition, the semi-annual survey continues to serve as a critical benchmarking tool for eDiscovery professionals assessing market rates for essential services, including collection, processing, and review.

As the global eDiscovery market expands—projected to grow from $16.89 billion in 2024 to $25.11 billion by 2029 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.25%—the need for transparent, data-driven pricing insights has never been more pressing. This growth is driven by rising data complexity, evolving global regulations, and the increasing adoption of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud-based solutions.

Survey Enhancements: Addressing the Realities of Generative AI

In response to industry shifts, the Winter 2025 edition introduces new survey questions designed to assess Generative AI-assisted review pricing models. These questions explore:

-Preferred pricing models, including per-document, per-GB, per-token, subscription, outcome-based, and hybrid approaches.
-Cost expectations for GenAI-assisted review, broken down by document and GB pricing tiers.
-Outcome-based pricing structures, such as cost savings, accuracy-based fees, and tiered pricing for speed improvements.
-Handling of documents requiring special processing, including whether additional charges apply.

By incorporating these elements, the survey aims to provide a practical, real-world benchmark for legal, compliance, and technology professionals navigating the complexities of AI-driven eDiscovery.

Emerging Trends: The Evolution of eDiscovery Pricing Models

A key trend from the Summer 2024 eDiscovery Pricing Survey was the continued innovation in pricing models by eDiscovery service providers. To remain competitive, providers are increasingly offering more flexible and cost-effective pricing structures, aligning their services with the evolving needs of their clients. These trends highlight the growing importance of transparency, efficiency, and adaptability in pricing strategies.

For eDiscovery professionals, these insights serve as valuable benchmarks for strategic planning and informed decision-making, helping them navigate the complex and dynamic landscape of eDiscovery services. The Winter 2025 edition builds upon these findings, further examining how Generative AI is influencing cost structures and service delivery.
