What's New

You can now upload and unlock password-protected files directly in Harvey, enabling teams to work more seamlessly with sensitive documents. With this update, you can:

  • Upload password-protected files in Assistant
  • Enter individual passwords per file, or bulk-apply one password to all uploaded files
  • Eliminate upload failures caused by password-protected documents

Why it Matters

Previously, encrypted files would fail to upload and could not be used in Harvey—creating workflow blockers, especially for teams working with sensitive financial, legal, or client-protected documents.

This enhancement ensures encrypted materials remain secure while still being accessible for authorized work.

  • Quickly identify encrypted files + unlock them directly within Harvey
  • Continue research, analysis, and drafting without interruption
