Social Impact at Relativity
Making an impact through technology & education
At Relativity, we create technology that powers the pursuit of justice – but we recognize that the journey to justice doesn’t begin in the courtroom. It starts in our communities.
Creating legal & technology career pathways
Relativity Fellows
The Relativity Fellows program helps us find and foster great talent from often overlooked communities. We welcome individuals to learn with us about our industry-leading software so they can jumpstart their careers in the legal technology sector and help create an industry that reflects our communities. Our goal? That every one of our Fellows lands a job in our industry and changes their economic trajectory.
Learn about Relativity FellowsAcademic Partner Program
Technology is changing the practice of law, and that means law schools and paralegal programs need to change how they teach. The Relativity Academic Partner program gives students hands-on experience with RelativityOne, the legal industry’s leading cloud technology tool, before they even graduate. It’s just one reason why some of the top law firms in the US have joined the program.

CPS Technology Grant
For nearly a decade, we have worked with the Chicago Public School system to invest up to $250,000 annually in local schools in need of technology and supporting resources. The results are tangible: past recipients have reported better attendance, higher test scores, and increased student engagement.
Impact Grant Program
No one knows the needs of a community like the people who live there. Through the Relativity Impact Grant Program, we provide each of our employee-led Community Resource Groups, our global regions, and our Relativity Fellows Alumni Network with annual funds to donate to the cause or organization of their choice. It’s just one way we’re empowering Relativians to support the communities they’re connected with.
Increasing access to justice
Justice for Change
The recent events of racial injustice in the United States, and broader discussions on racial equality globally, have shined a light on the oppression and injustice that have existed for hundreds of years. Our Justice for Change program gives organizations doing legal work on behalf of racial justice free use of our cloud-based e-discovery product, RelativityOne.

Learn More about AI for Good“Our partner law firms and service providers provide invaluable support to nonprofit organizations. The massive backlog of cases in the court system – and lack of resources to efficiently pursue justice – directly affect the lives of low-income and minority communities. I’m proud that Justice for Change serves as a pathway to interrupt that cycle.”
