Ropes and Gray adopts Intapp DealCloud and Celeste to drive growth and AI
Intapp, the governed AI platform for professional firms in highly regulated industries, announces that Ropes and Gray LLP, a preeminent global law firm, has selected Intapp DealCloud to power growth and relationship management and Celeste to bring agentic AI across the firm — connecting intelligence across its growth, compliance, and profitability workflows.
Ropes and Gray’s investment reflects a strategic commitment to equipping every lawyer — not just business development and marketing teams — with the intelligence and growth tools they need to develop relationships and serve clients. DealCloud creates the connected data foundation, while Celeste puts that knowledge to work across the firm through natural conversation and agentic AI.
Firmwide growth powered by agentic AI
DealCloud gives Ropes and Gray a single, connected foundation for growth and relationship management — capturing the firm’s institutional knowledge across relationships, opportunities, and client activity in one place. With that foundation in place, Celeste gives lawyers a way to engage with that intelligence in plain language, the same way they would with a trusted colleague.
The firm will work with Intapp to build custom AI agents tailored to their workflows, data, and strategic priorities, designed to execute critical processes while honoring the firm’s compliance and confidentiality standards.
“Building and sustaining strong connections with our clients is what sets our firm apart,” said Julie Jones, Chair of Ropes and Gray. “DealCloud’s intuitive and customized AI-powered functionality will supercharge that competitive advantage. We are excited about DealCloud’s potential to deliver deeper and more proactive insights that help us grow and serve our clients more effectively.”
Bringing relationship intelligence to every lawyer
By deploying DealCloud as its firmwide growth and relationship management platform, Ropes and Gray is creating a connected foundation where lawyers can share intelligence across practices and geographies, plan more effectively, and surface growth opportunities that had previously been invisible at the lawyer level. And with Celeste accessible directly within DealCloud, professionals can engage with the firm’s collective knowledge through natural conversation — without switching tools or changing how they work.
“We’re thrilled to support Ropes and Gray as they deploy DealCloud and Celeste together,” said Ben Harrison, President of Industries at Intapp. “When every lawyer has access to the firm’s collective relationship intelligence — and AI that can act on it — relationship advantage compounds, driving growth the firm is equipped to sustain.”
