# ServiceNow Otto for Legal Service Delivery \(LSD\)
ServiceNow Otto for Legal Service Delivery \(LSD\) provides AI-powered summarization for legal requests and matters, and generates actionable answers from knowledge article search results in Employee Center, Legal Counsel Center, and global search.
## ServiceNow Otto for Legal Service Delivery \(LSD\) overview
The following AI capabilities are available in ServiceNow Otto for Legal Service Delivery \(LSD\):
- Summarization capability for the request fulfillers to get a concise summary of a request or matter. This AI summary helps request fulfillers understand the context of the request for faster resolution. The summarization capability is available in Legal Counsel Center and the ServiceNow Otto panel.
- Q&A Genius Results capability for request fulfillers and legal users to generate concise, actionable answers from knowledge article results in Legal Counsel Center, Employee Center, and global search.
- Conversational intake experience allows legal users to initiate Conflict of Interest \(COI\) requests through ServiceNow Otto in Virtual Agent, guiding them with context driven follow‑up questions to capture required details.
## Legal Request and Legal Matter summarization
The ServiceNow Otto for Legal Service Delivery \(LSD\) application generates an AI‑powered summary of a legal request or matter. This summary captures key details and the actions taken throughout the lifecycle of the request or matter. Request fulfillers can review the summary to quickly understand context, refresh it as needed, and post it to work notes for reference and collaboration.
The summary is displayed above the activity stream and includes the information from the fields and variablesconfigured as inputs.\[Omitted image "lsd-sum-matter-landing.png"\] Alt text: Legal matter summarization
For more information on the fields and variables that are considered for summarization, see [Skill inputs for ServiceNow Otto for Legal Service Delivery \(LSD\)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/legal-request-management/now-assist-lsd-skill-inputs.md) and [Configure variables for AI summarization](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/legal-request-management/configure-variables-for-now-assist-summarization.md).

## Conversational intake
Conversational Intake guides legal users through submitting Conflict of Interest \(COI\) requests using a chat‑based experience from the ServiceNow Otto in Virtual Agent interface of Employee Center
Instead of completing static forms, legal users can describe the COI details in natural language. Details provided in conversational language are automatically populated into the intake form, reducing the effort required to fill in form fields. The system asks relevant follow‑up questions based on the request type, and validates responses to ensure that all required details are captured accurately.
After submission, the system evaluates the COI request to determine risk. Low‑risk requests are auto‑approved, while medium‑ and high‑risk requests are routed for approval.
For more information on COI application and the risk assessment, see [Legal Conflict of Interest](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/legal-conflict-of-interest/legal-conflict-of-interest-landing-page.md) and [Exploring Legal Conflict of Interest](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/legal-conflict-of-interest/conflict-of-interest-overview.md).
You can use Now LLM Service, Azure OpenAI, Google Gemini or Anthropic Claude on AWS as the AI model provider for all generative AI skills and AI agents. Use the Configuration Controls in [AI Control Tower](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/intelligent-experiences/ai-model-providers.md) to define which options are available, then set the skill-level preferences in the [AI Admin Hub console](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/intelligent-experiences/manage-large-language-models.md).
