Verbatim://
We're building the transcript dataset no one else will touch.
Every word in court is captured. Then lost.
We're unlocking it – and turning it into the backbone for law, intelligence, and AI.
The Wasted Goldmine
- • Hundreds of millions of transcript pages exist.
- • No database. No search. No access.
- • 20,000 stenographers control supply.
- • First copy costs thousands. After that, they sit unused.
- • LexisNexis hasn’t solved it. Thomson Reuters hasn’t either.
- • The richest dataset in law – and for legal AI – sits untapped.
How We Fix It
We solve the cold start and own the supply.
• Lock the supply: exclusive rev-share deals with reporters.
• Fix the cold start: pooled buyers, exclusivity windows, first-buyer rebates.
• Build the corpus: every transcript ingested compounds into the dataset.
• Monetize twice: resale today. AI licensing tomorrow.
AI Is the Endgame
AI labs need proprietary legal data.
Courts are moving to recordings - easier to ingest.
Legacy players can't solve the cold start.
We can.
Roadmap:
• Phase 1 Lock supply (stenographers) + start corpus ingestion
• Phase 2 Structure + label data for AI training
• Phase 3 AI licensing + insights (judges, lawyers, corporate intel)
Who This Powers
• AI-first firms: Harvey, Casetext, Bloomberg AI.
• AI labs: OpenAI, Anthropic, Scale.
• Legal publishers: Westlaw, Lexis.
• Funds: litigation financiers, hedge funds trading on outcomes.
• Law firms + journalists: appeals, strategy, ground truth.
Mission
Every day, testimony is created and lost.
We're capturing it – and turning it into the dataset that will train legal AI.
Team
We're operators, founders, and engineers who know how to scale from zero to tens of millions. This isn't theory – we've done it.
Ari Posner – Founder & CEO
- • Exited founder – built and sold Minimap (B2C, during college)
- • Scaled 11x from pre-revenue → $15M+ ARR and Series B backed by a16z + Benchmark ($80M+ raised)
- • a16z Scout and active angel investor
This is pure execution: zero to scale, done before, doing it again.
