In a significant leadership transition that marks Reveal’s evolution from founder-led startup to mature industry leader, Wendell Jisa has moved from Chief Executive Officer to Chairman of the Board, while seasoned executive Eric Harmon assumes the CEO role. This carefully planned succession positions the global legal technology company for its next phase of innovation and market expansion.
Transformative Leadership Legacy
Wendell Jisa’s 18-year journey with Reveal represents one of the most remarkable growth stories in legal technology. Starting with a bootstrapped vision to modernize legal processes, Jisa transformed Reveal into one of the fastest-growing companies in the sector, achieving unicorn status in 2021 with one of the largest capital investments in legal tech history. Under his leadership, the company executed a strategic combination of organic growth and targeted acquisitions, integrating technologies including Brainspace, Logikcull, Mindseye, NexLP, Onna, TrialDirector, Technically Creative, and Ligl into a unified ecosystem.
“Building and growing Reveal to the powerhouse it is today has been the journey of a lifetime,” said Jisa. “What began with a vision to modernize legal processes has evolved into a global platform that’s reshaping the future of the entire legal industry.”
Strategic Succession Planning
The leadership transition results from a rigorous, deliberate search process conducted by Jisa in close collaboration with Reveal’s board and executive team. The selection of Eric Harmon as CEO reflects the company’s strategic focus on scaling operations while maintaining its innovative edge and customer-centric approach.
“Eric is a transformational leader who understands how to scale high-performing technology organizations while staying close to customers and delivering measurable results,” Jisa emphasized. “He’s the right person at the right time, and I look forward to partnering with him closely in this next chapter.”
New CEO’s Extensive Background
Eric Harmon brings more than 20 years of experience across legal, enterprise technology, services, and cybersecurity to his new role. His background includes more than four years at an Am Law 20 law firm, providing him with deep understanding of legal industry challenges and opportunities. Most recently, Harmon served as CEO of Trustwave, a global cybersecurity leader, and has held senior leadership positions at DXC Technology, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and McKinsey & Company.
“Reveal is redefining what’s possible in legal technology,” said Harmon. “The platform, the people, and the momentum are all exceptional, and I’m honored to join at such a pivotal moment. I look forward to working with Wendell, the leadership team, and our global partners and customers to continue growing Reveal’s impact around the world.”
AI Innovation Foundation
Jisa’s tenure was marked by significant technological innovation, particularly in artificial intelligence. He oversaw the creation and launch of two patent-pending AI technologies—ASK and aji—that have solidified Reveal’s reputation as a leader in legal AI. These technologies power Reveal’s unique dual-platform approach, which provides both enterprise-grade solutions through Reveal and intuitive, self-service electronic discovery through Logikcull, all driven by a single, unified AI engine.
Comprehensive Platform Ecosystem
Reveal’s integrated ecosystem represents the most comprehensive solution in the legal technology market, spanning every phase of the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM). The platform covers the complete discovery lifecycle from data ingestion and legal hold to investigation, document review, and AI-powered analytics. This end-to-end approach empowers a diverse range of legal professionals—from solo practitioners to global law firms, corporations, and government agencies—with powerful, adaptable AI tools tailored to their specific needs.
Industry Context and Positioning
The leadership transition occurs during a period of significant innovation across the technology sector. Recent developments including next-generation Wi-Fi technology, emerging XR platforms, AI assistant integrations, and retail AI implementations demonstrate the broader industry trend toward AI-driven transformation that Reveal has pioneered in legal technology.
Future Vision and Strategic Direction
As Chairman, Jisa will remain deeply involved in Reveal’s long-term vision and strategic direction while supporting the new CEO’s leadership. His transition also allows for increased focus on mentoring emerging entrepreneurs and SaaS leaders, strategic investments in next-generation technology companies, and family commitments during a transformative stage for his young family of five.
