As a data scientist, I’ve been diving into AI and blockchain, looking for ways these tools can make a real difference. The legal world caught my attention because it’s often slow, complex, and hard to navigate. We saw a chance to create something new, so we started building PONS, a platform that uses AI to simplify legal tasks, make them more affordable, and help both lawyers and clients.
We began with a big idea: use AI to make legal work easier for everyone. We wanted a tool that could cut through complicated laws and processes, saving time and money for people who need legal help.
“AI won’t replace lawyers, but lawyers who use AI will have an edge.”
— A common saying in legal tech discussions.
Our early plans focused on building a platform that could handle legal tasks quickly and adapt to changing laws. It wasn’t always easy. We hit plenty of challenges, from technical glitches to rethinking our approach, but each one helped us improve. Those obstacles pushed us to create a product we truly believe in.
Microsoft’s Role in Our Progress
Joining the Microsoft Founders Hub was a game-changer. Their support, resources, and mentors helped us move faster than we thought possible. What could have taken months came together in weeks, getting us to our Beta launch quickly and smoothly.
Microsoft didn’t just give us tools; they connected us with experts who sharpened our ideas. Their feedback made our platform stronger and gave us confidence to keep going.
What’s Next for PONS
We’re thrilled to launch our Beta version, a platform designed to make legal work simpler and more accessible. With Microsoft’s help, we’ve built something we’re proud of, and we’re excited to see how it helps people navigate the legal world.
As we move from Beta to a full release, we’ll keep improving and sharing updates. Our goal is to make legal services easier and better for everyone, and we can’t wait to see where this journey takes us.
