Artificial intelligence has been disrupting technology at warp speed. But a new startup is aiming to use AI to better understand the law.
What’s happening:
- Chicago based artificial intelligence startup Responsiv has raised a $3M seed round
- Responsiv is building an AI enabled assistant for legal teams to accelerate research
- The seed round was led by Greylock with participation from OnDean, Permanent Capital Ventures and more
Why it matters:
- Artificial intelligence has been making an impact on everything from technology to drug discovery and continues to show potential for unexpected applications
- Legal research is typically expensive and time consuming, which AI could drastically change
How it works:
- Users can use simple language to ask Responsiv’s software for legal questions
- They will then get citations and reference backed examples in response to their inquiry
- Lawyers can then use Responsiv’s technology to begin drafting a template or policy based upon that information
By the numbers:
- Responsiv’s platform claims to have access to 10 million opinions from court cases all throughout the United States
