Challenge
As a new business operating in the rapidly evolving AI space, Intelligence Assist faced several challenges typical of startups, but with added complexity. Janey's business did not fit the conventional mold of a product-based or consumer-based startup. Instead, it functioned as a service provider, uniquely positioned to understand and cater to the nuanced needs of other businesses. This positioning required a tailored approach to everything from legal structure to operational workflows. One of the primary challenges was managing the legal and administrative aspects of the business. The overwhelming volume of tasks, including updating CRM systems, responding to emails, and managing scheduling, demanded effective solutions, and navigating these without a robust legal framework in place could have been detrimental.
It's not easy setting up a startup...especially when you don't fit the standard model.
The Lawpath Solution
To address these challenges, Janey turned to Lawpath, an online legal platform tailored for small businesses. The hybrid model offered by Lawpath, which combines AI-driven tools with access to human legal expertise, was particularly appealing to Janey. She utilised Lawpath's services to draft and review essential legal documents, ensuring they were compliant with Australian laws. This approach allowed her to use AI for initial document preparation, followed by consultations with a Lawpath lawyer to ensure everything was accurate and tailored to her specific needs.
What I love the most about Lawpath is that hybrid model...I can be a human in the loop, but only to a certain point when I need that final verification....having that access to talk to a lawyer to get that lawyer to look over the document.... I felt so confident that what I was sending out was the right thing by my business.
Impact and Growth
The impact of using Lawpath was immediate and significant. For instance, when Janey hired her first employee, the process of creating and verifying a letter of offer was streamlined and efficient. This efficiency not only saved time but also provided Janey with the confidence that her legal documents were compliant and thorough. This experience exemplified how Lawpath's services paid for themselves by enabling rapid business decisions and reducing the risk of legal oversights.
I interviewed Harriet at 11 o'clock in the morning and by 2:00 PM I had a letter of offer out to her...verified by a lawyer....So everything you kind of need is in Lawpath. So just go there first and look for what you need and you'll probably find it.
Future Aspirations
Looking ahead, Intelligence Assist has ambitious plans for growth. The company aims to scale rapidly, increase its workforce, and transition to a subscription-based model. These changes will require revisiting and possibly revising their legal documents, a task Janey is confident in handling with Lawpath's continued support. She is particularly appreciative of the continuity Lawpath provides, allowing her to maintain a relationship with the same lawyer who understands her business's unique needs.
We want to grow scales...and we're also going to be moving to a subscription-based model.
