Press Release: Flo Launches Flo AI
From Business Wire: Flo Launches AI Solution That Answers Law Firms' Hardest Talent Questions Instantly
AUSTIN, July 15, 2026: Flo today announced the launch of Flo AI, an AI solution that answers the talent questions law firm leaders and partners have never been able to put to a single system. Which recruiting sources produce the associates who go on to perform the highest? Which skills now separate the firm's strongest performers, and how has that changed with AI adoption? Flo AI answers questions like these in plain language, based on a firm's own recruiting and performance data.
"The best firm leaders already carry these questions in their heads. What they have never had is a way to answer them from their own data in seconds," said Katherine Allen, Co-Founder and CEO of Flo.
The launch comes as AI reshapes legal work and firms rethink their talent strategies. Leaders are adjusting who they hire and how they develop their people faster than before, and those decisions are only as sound as the data behind them. Until now, pulling data has meant combining exports from separate systems into spreadsheets for manual analysis. Even then, spreadsheets work with structured data, and the deepest insights live in the unstructured text of feedback forms and notes – now unlocked at scale.
A few examples of what a talent leader, practice group head, or managing partner can ask:
Fill a role faster, using what already worked.
"I'm opening a senior litigation associate search. Based on the candidates who succeeded in past litigation searches, pull the profiles in our pipeline that match the qualifications that predicted strong hires, and tell me who to prioritize."
See how talent needs are shifting in the age of AI.
"As AI changes legal work, which skills and backgrounds now predict our highest performers, and how has that shifted over the past few years? Look at interview evaluations and performance reviews together."
Connect a hire to how they perform.
"Which interviewers consistently predict who will become a top performer?"
"The best firm leaders already carry these questions in their heads. What they have never had is a way to answer them from their own data in seconds," said Katherine Allen, Co-Founder and CEO of Flo. "Flo AI connects recruiting and performance so leaders can see not just who they hired, but how those decisions played out, and what to do next as the legal world evolves."
Flo AI answers in plain language and points to the candidates, reviews, and matters behind every answer, working across Flo Pipeline Building, Applicant Tracking, Work Allocation, and Performance Management. Importantly, the access levels of recruiting and professional development team members can be limited to their role.
Flo AI builds on capabilities Flo introduced with its March 2026 expansion into performance management, including review writing support, summarization, and trend analysis.
Security & Data Privacy
Flo AI is built for the confidentiality standards of law firms. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, Flo maintains SOC 2 Type II compliance across its entire platform. Flo does not use client data to train its models, and each firm's data stays within its own environment, never shared with or combined with another firm's. Flo AI honors a firm's existing access permissions and supports human judgment rather than replacing it, so hiring, promotion, and development decisions stay with the people responsible for them.
