Summation Legal Technologies, Inc. made groundbreaking litigation support software at the forefront of digital transformation in the legal industry. Summation software was used in some of the most important and visible legal cases in the US, including the 1995 Breast Implant Litigation (MDL-926?), Microsoft anti-trust , the OJ Simpson trial , the Ford Explorer roll-over , and the Tobacco class action case in 1994.

History
Summation Legal Technologies, Inc. was originally founded in 1985 as SiHeRo Systems by founders Jon Sigerman, James Henderson and David Rotman. The company received a significant boost when in the early 90s the lead counsel for the multidistrict litigation MDL-926? David ? made Summation Blaze the system of record for digital distribution of documents to be shared with other parties to the case.

Products
Summation Blaze was originally written to run on DOS PCs but with 4.0, Summation released a Windows version. The software had several key features of litigation support software, such as the ability to store, encode, and search documents, transcripts, notes, and digital media such as images, audio and video. A live annotation feature allowed Summation software to receive a feed directly from a court reporter's stenograph machine to support live note-taking, encoding and searching as well as cross-referencing.
