open-legal-products makes Mike's review workspace feel more deliberate

A coordinated interface pass sharpens how legal teams inspect documents, spreadsheets, citations and assistant activity.

workflowchat-ui

The Mike team has refreshed its visual language around translucent surfaces, shared controls and clearer interaction states. This is not a new legal-AI capability, but it makes the existing review experience feel more consistent across the product.

  • Document previews can be resized and dismissed by clicking outside them.
  • Spreadsheet reviewers can move through cells in all four directions.
  • Spreadsheet citations and highlights are clearer, with stability improvements for workbooks.
  • Review panels, tables, menus, selections and loading states have been aligned.
  • Assistant activity and citations now use shared presentation components.

The work is packaged as a coordinated design-system update, so organisations with local interface customisation should assess it as a whole.

So what Teams using Mike for document or spreadsheet review should care because small interface improvements can reduce friction in the repetitive work of checking evidence and outputs.
