Virtual Data Rooms are used for external document collaboration, more commonly in legal transactions such as Mergers or Acquisitions. Our client feedback indicates that existing platforms are often slow, unreliable and difficult to use, have limited customisation & time is wasted with organisation and management of data.

We've developed Ruby Datum with what we see as critical unique features such as a fully integrated Q&A facility, advanced configuration and permissions of custom fields, dynamic watermarking, full audit trails & more.

The platform was built from the start with scalability in mind and now we're building full document, data & task management facilities that can be interlinked & white-labelled, allowing firms to build their own SaaS products within Ruby Datum.

We've worked with 38 clients, some of which resell the platform, amounting to millions of documents across thousands of sites. 10 new clients this year, a 45% increase in our client base.

The ‘Shaping the Future of Law’ report estimated the annual market opportunity across Legal Tech to be £22bn (£11.4bn of revenue generated from serving unmet demand, £8.6bn of cost-savings for SMEs and £1.7bn from productivity gains in legal businesses).

“Ruby Datum is a pleasure to work with and provides a highly user-centric virtual data room platform with impressive continuity of service.”
