Hanzo

Hanzo is a specialist eDiscovery and investigations vendor focused on preserving, collecting, and assessing modern collaboration data before that data has to be flattened into a painful downstream review project. The strongest corroborated fit is for in-house legal, compliance, and litigation-support teams dealing with Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, and other dynamic sources where legal hold, defensible capture, and context-preserving export matter more than generic document-hosting. Hanzo’s public site and use-case pages repeatedly emphasize in-place preservation, review-ready exports, and early investigation over broad end-to-end review leadership. Security posture is better documented than many mid-market legaltech vendors: Hanzo publishes a security page with SOC 2 Type 2, encryption, SSO, GDPR, and CCPA claims, though the detailed report is only available under NDA so this pass still treats most controls as vendor-published rather than independently inspected. Pricing remains private, and independent market validation is thinner than the incumbents: Reddit discussion exists but is sparse, G2/Capterra coverage did not surface clearly in Serper, and the strongest public proof points are vendor case studies plus directory coverage rather than broad practitioner review volume.
