Middle Bagsanta $ 4 million + issues ‘proposal search’ – artificial lawyer

Midpage, an ‘AI-Nation’ Legal Research, has raised a $ 4 million seed round, receiving its total funds at $ 6.2 million. It was led by a ‘unnamed’ ‘publishing house’, with participation by the angels of the great law and existing LEA support partners.

Founder, Otto zastroHe told the artificial lawyer that the legal publishing house was not one of the main ones, such as Thomson Reuters, but he could not name it.

Meanwhile, the New York -based company has also begun searching for proposals, which explained means that you can now ‘just write a proposal for which you want support and quickly find the best opportunity to support it’.

Zastrow noted that this was inspired by the parallel search of Casetext, before his agreement with tr.

He explained: ‘This feature allowed users to write a sentence immediately in the search bar. The research results would highlight similar conceptual sentences from responsible cases, even if they do not contain the same main terms you had requested.

‘Parallel search made it easier to find support for the proposals. He removed the steps of (1) to break your proposal in terms of search and (2) movement through search results to find the sentence that supported your proposal. It was before her time. ‘

But, he added, she had ‘short cozy’.

‘At worst, the search would be fastened into the wrong aspects of the question in which you were suppressed. You will get stuck with the pages of results that were not fair enough, and repeat several times to your question, especially when researching more nuanced issues.

‘At best, the search will return the important results, but it took time to determine which case was best to quote. You still had to open the results in the new tabs and remove them to filter the cases that were actually unfortunate, went wrong, or had the wrong keeping, ‘he added.

So Midpage has built the proposals, which he said ‘collects from where parallel search left’.

He explained: ‘With the search for proposals and filtering the custom, you can discard your network for the corresponding cases, then quickly zero at best’.

The example of seeking issues related to the legal concept of the ‘servant without confidence’ was given then.

‘In this example, we need support for the proposal that the doctrine of trusted servants requires incredible repeated acts. So we simply write it in the search bar and click search the proposal.

‘Many cases (found) are important and useful. But the best case is one who points out that a single act of inconsistency is not enough to violate the doctrine of the trusted servant. We can add a column to quench the results for exactly that. ‘

‘With the search for proposals and the custom filter of it, you can discard your network for the corresponding cases, then quickly zero at best,’ Zastrow concluded.

So there you go. It looks like he is moving things forward. And convention for $ 4 million seed funds. More Rocket Fuel!
