Tiger Eye announced today (7 July) that law firms can now adopt its Blueprint Knowledge Management platform with noslegal’s taxonomy embedded.
noslegal is an open-source, non-profit legal data standards project. The standardised taxonomy or classification scheme is widely available for categorising legal work, matter records, and knowledge assets. The Tiger Eye Blueprint update specifically uses noslegal V4, the latest version of the taxonomy which was launched in May 2026.
A targeted bundle of 14 new pre-configured fields are also available out-of-the-box within Tiger Eye Blueprint as part of the update. The release includes a number of fields specifically designed to support the noslegal taxonomy, including work types; areas of law; participants; roles; sectors; places; process elements; information types. Further fields, designed by Tiger Eye to support curation, such as fields which highlight how best to use assets. While these fields will be automatically created during the set-up of Blueprint, we’re told they remain fully customisable.
Graeme Johnston, founder of noslegal, said: “Over the last few years, with better uses of data increasingly within reach in legal work, there has been increasing realisation of the importance of laying a strong taxonomical foundation. But that’s easier said than done. Realising the difficulty of this, we’ve built the noslegal taxonomy in four stages since 2020 in close consultation with leading law firms and in-house legal teams.
“The fact that it is now available in leading software products such as Blueprint means that organisations have a strong ready-to-go taxonomy which can meet most needs out of the box and can readily be extended to cover more specific requirements.”
