Automated Relativity Production Deadline Tracking

Every morning, WebRun reads your production deadline calendar in Google Sheets, checks the current review and QC progress in Relativity, and posts a Slack digest showing days remaining, documents still in review, and any matters that need urgent attention.

In short

How do I track e-discovery production deadlines and review progress automatically?

WebRun reads your Google Sheets production calendar every morning, pulls live document-review progress from each Relativity workspace, and posts a Slack digest sorted by days remaining. Matters with tight deadlines and incomplete review are flagged at the top so the team can act before a deadline slips.

  • Every production deadline is visible with live progress each morning
  • At-risk matters are flagged before they become a crisis
  • Attorneys and PMs see the same status without logging into multiple systems

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it file or submit the production itself?

No. WebRun only reads deadlines and review progress, then posts the digest to Slack. All production filings are done manually by the responsible attorney.

What if a deadline changes mid-matter?

Update the date in your Google Sheets deadline tracker and the next morning's digest will reflect the new date automatically.

Can it alert by email instead of Slack?

Yes. Configure the delivery step to draft a summary email instead, and a reviewer can send it to the team. Swap Slack for Gmail in the settings.

Put this on autopilot.
