Wendell Jisa, Founder & CEO of Reveal, Wins EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2025 Award

Visionary behind legal tech’s AI revolution honored for bold leadership, category transformation, and building one of the fastest-growing legal technology companies in the world

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Reveal, the global provider of dual eDiscovery and investigation platforms powered by a single, unified AI engine, proudly announces that its Founder and CEO, Wendell Jisa, has been named a 2025 EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® Midwest Award winner—one of the most prestigious recognitions in business leadership and innovation.

The award celebrates Jisa’s extraordinary journey from startup founder to industry disruptor. His vision: to modernize the legal industry by making artificial intelligence not just accessible, but essential to how legal professionals work. By infusing advanced AI into every stage of the eDiscovery process, Jisa and the entire team at Reveal are empowering legal teams to surface key insights faster, cut through data noise with precision, and unlock greater value from their work. The culture of innovation Jisa continues to cultivate at Reveal raises the bar for what's possible in legal tech.

“From day one, we set out to reimagine what legal professionals could do if they had the right tools,” Jisa said. “We didn’t want to replace people—we wanted to amplify them. This award is a powerful recognition of that mission. I’m deeply honored, and grateful to the exceptional Reveal team and our forward-thinking clients who believed in this from the very beginning.”

Under Wendell Jisa’s leadership, Reveal has grown into a multi-platform global enterprise—driven by his visionary Build, Buy, Partner strategy. Through strategic acquisitions—including Brainspace, Logikcull, Onna and others—Reveal has rapidly expanded its capabilities, creating the most comprehensive legal intelligence ecosystem in the industry. Simultaneously, Jisa has fostered a culture of internal innovation, resulting in breakthrough tools like “ASK,” a generative AI-powered search feature, and GenAI Review, which streamlines document analysis and accelerates review across both Reveal Enterprise and Logikcull by Reveal. In parallel, he has forged and nurtured strategic partnerships across cloud, data, and integration ecosystems—ensuring Reveal clients benefit from the most flexible, powerful, and forward-looking AI-powered eDiscovery offerings on the market today.

“The Entrepreneur Of The Year 2025 Midwest Award winners are trailblazers who redefine excellence and set new benchmarks in their industries,” said Ram Ramanan, Entrepreneur Of The Year Midwest Program Director. “They set the standard for scaling businesses while prioritizing their employees, customers and communities.”

Jisa’s win makes him eligible for the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2025 National Awards, to be announced this fall at the Strategic Growth Forum® in Palm Springs, California.
