Our Story

Through work experience at a public defender’s office, we identified unmet needs in legal discovery analysis and opportunities for AI to revolutionize counsel. ProCounsel streamlines discovery analysis by 90% and finds the silver bullet, so attorneys can focus on the work that truly matters for serving their clients. As a Johns Hopkins University affiliated startup, ProCounsel believes that smarter discovery leads to better counsel.
