open-legal-products turns Mike into an any-model legal assistant

Mike now gives firms more control over which AI models power legal work, without turning model choice into an IT obstacle course.

integrationworkflow

The team has added support for OpenRouter and Vercel AI Gateway, services that give organisations access to a wider range of AI models through a single connection. Users see only models their organisation has actually configured, with readable names and pricing rather than cryptic technical labels.

  • Web and Word users can choose approved models in the same provider-grouped interface.
  • Firms can store preferred model choices securely, including encrypted user-supplied credentials.
  • Model access now carries through to chat, reviews, exports, tool use and document-related tasks.
  • Open-ended assistant questions accept fuller answers, with length limits and safeguards when those answers are reused.
  • Document actions attach to the correct version, reducing the risk of reviewing or citing the wrong draft.

The deployment setup also makes document conversion more dependable. Legal teams balancing model choice, cost visibility and document reliability should care.

So what This makes Mike more practical for teams that want AI choice without loosening control over credentials, costs or document context.
