Our unified platform for policy and data

Orchestrate and Illuminate work as one platform. Orchestrate defines what you keep, for how long and why: your retention schedule, with the legal research behind every rule. Illuminate applies that policy to your unstructured data, where it lives, and shows the reasoning behind every decision. Use them together or on their own.

Orchestrate your policy

Orchestrate is records retention schedule software built by practitioners, for practitioners. It holds your schedule as a governed system instead of a spreadsheet, with legal research across 340+ jurisdictions and 360,000+ retention obligations, curated by our team and kept current. Employees can search it, auditors can trace every rule to its citation, and the systems you govern can read it through API endpoints we configure during implementation.

Illuminate your data

Illuminate is AI data classification software that runs inside your environment, on-premise or in your private cloud, and is also available as SaaS. It classifies your unstructured data against the rules you provide, such as your retention schedule or your definitions of personal information, and shows the reasoning and a confidence score behind every decision. That makes it practical to find records, sensitive data and ROT, and to dispose of what you no longer need on a documented basis.

About us

By practitioners, for practitioners

LexShift was born from a simple truth:

The gap between policy and action is where risk lives.

We close that gap with one platform for both halves of the problem. LexShift was built by practitioners who lived the frustration of static spreadsheets, outdated legal research and black-box tools. Orchestrate gives you the policy foundation, and Illuminate applies it to your data, with every decision explained.
