I'm excited to share what we (myself and my two co-founders Volodymyr Giginiak and Robbie Falkenthal) have been working on for the past few months with our exceptional team. https://wordsmith.ai/
I spent 7 years training, qualifying and practicing to be a lawyer at the start of my career before I moved into engineering (its a long story...). That time as a lawyer stuck with me, ask anyone that I've worked with over the years and they will have told you that this was a space that I wanted to work on at some stage.
While aspects of practising the law are incredible, challenging and interesting, there is a ton of busy work that everyone just hates...
Throw these lawyers into high growth businesses, with hundreds of contracts, languages, engineers, sales teams and anyone that tells you that working ‘in house’ is easy vs private practice is going to get laughed out of the room.
Lawyers are the first to admit that the tools they are using are still effectively a digital version of a piece of paper from 2,000 years ago...Layer on top the massive increase in regulation, the lower barrier than ever to litigating and lawyers are asked every day to do more with less.
The engineering world has been all over automation for years. The fastest way to get rid of a workflow is to make an engineer do a job manually three times. Wordsmith strives to be that companion for lawyers. The AI engineer team that the business just never has the bandwidth to dedicate to them.
We have been working hard with some incredible companies to build a new platform for legal operations designed for the AI native in-house legal team. Over the coming weeks im excited to share some of the things we have built with them.
We have some massive things in the pipeline.
