A New Era in Discovery
Welcome to a new era in discovery, where AI is transforming how you can find, analyze and review information in large document collections–substantially reducing the work, time and costs of traditional discovery.
Merlin Search Technologies is a trailblazing AI and cloud technologies company taking you into this new era.
We’re the developers of Sherlock Integrated Search, the first AI-powered discovery platform that integrates algorithmic search and generative AI with a full-featured discovery platform.  Fast, feature-rich and simple to use, Sherlock Integrated Search makes finding relevant information faster, easier and more cost-effective.Â
Sherlock Integrated Search is delivered via AWS cloud. We use single-tenant architecture for enhanced security, greater control and the ability to turn on and off sites for cost-effective Cloud Utility Pricing. Pay one hourly rate when your site is active and a substantially lower rate when you turn it off.  You save on hosting costs while supporting green computing.Â

Built for AI and the CloudÂ
Sherlock was architected from the ground up to take advantage of AI and the features offered exclusively by cloud technology. Using the latest software code, languages and frameworks means your sites are lightening fast. At the same time, we designed Sherlock with an eye towards robust features that are simple to use, from initial search to analysis, review and production. Â The latest technologies means you get new features faster, unencumbered by older software and outdated code.Â

Say goodbye to complex keyword searches. Sherlock learns from your judgments, Â finding relevant documents in less time and lower cost than keyword search.
Cloud Utility Savings
Cloud Utility Pricing offers unprecedented control over hosting expenses, presenting an hourly–versus monthly– cost model that is efficient and user-friendly. You have complete control over your site’s operating hours, saving every time you turn your site off.Â
Turn Sites On and Off with a Click:Â With a simple click, you can deactivate your site. It will shut down in minutes, reducing hourly hosting costs by up to 70%. In just minutes, restore your site when needed.Â
Schedule Site Operating Hours: Define site operating hours to align with your work needs, ensuring it’s active when needed and dormant when not.
Activate Our Site Energy Saver:Â Automatically deactivate your site after a set period of inactivity, conserving resources and reducing costs.
YConsidering that most sites are active for only a fraction of the month, hourly pricing offers a smarter alternative.
Single-Tenant Architecture
Merlin is unique in offering single-tenant architecture. Why did we choose single-tenant versus the more typical multi-tenant environment for discovery hosting?Â
Unparalleled Security:Â Every site resides in its own VPC. No shared computing resources and no risk of data exposure.Â
Customized Site Control:Â Control your site, from On/Off scheduling, Â server size, and additional security measures to enhanced access restrictions or individual monitoring.
Flexible Scalability:Â Swiftly add or drop servers, scaling in lockstep with your business requirements.
Global Accessibility: Position your site anywhere in the world, even in your own secure AWS environment or a government FedRAMP environment. Â
Cost and Operational Alignment:Â By turning matters on and off at will, you align your costs with your operational needs of the site. Â
Data Privacy Compliance:Â Protect your sensitive data to meet GDRP, CCPA, CFPB and other regulations governing data.Â
In single-tenant environments, each matter is protected by its own Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).Â
In multi-tenant cloud environments, client data is commingled and a data breach affects all sites. – MOVE to above multi-tenant image, make both images a hair larger.
GPT Innovation
The Merlin team is constantly devising new and innovative ways our users can take advantage of generative AI systems like GPT to reengineer discovery workflows, dramatically improving efficiency and cost effectiveness. Â
We’ve developed B2, an internal system created in the Merlin Lab to explore how to best integrate the analytical power of GPT-4 into discovery workflows. Using an integrated system like B2 helps legal and investigative teams automate activities such as synthesizing information and summarizing  documents, answering key questions and creating investigation reports.Â
Green Computing
Reduce energy consumption and shrink your carbon footprint by powering off sites when not needed. Set up the site scheduler or let Sherlock’s automated Site Energy Saver shut off your site whenever it’s idle.  Curb emissions and help meet your Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) goals.Â
Merlin is excited to be the first discovery software company supporting green computing.Â
