Today, more than ever, industries are turning to tech to address inefficiencies that plague day-to-day operations. The legal industry, often viewed as one of the most traditional and slow-moving professions, is undergoing a silent revolution. Lawyers, known for their meticulous review processes and reliance on institutional knowledge, are increasingly overburdened by repetitive tasks like document review and answering the same questions multiple times.
Ruli AI, co-founded by Bryan Lee, is at the forefront of this shift, leveraging artificial intelligence to redefine how lawyers work. On Things Have Changed, we recently hosted Bryan Lee, co-founder and CEO of Ruli AI, to discuss how AI could tremendously boost efficiencies within the legal space while giving lawyers the tools they need to focus on strategic, high-value work.
Bryan’s career journey is far from the typical one - going from big law to launching an AI startup. After spending years juggling the demands of capital markets law, in-house legal counsel, and AI development at Google and Meta, Bryan observed a universal pain point: lawyers spending countless hours on tasks that could be automated.
“Imagine if lawyers had an AI partner that could handle repetitive tasks, like summarizing contracts, reviewing for inconsistencies, or even answering basic questions,” Bryan explained. “That’s where Ruli AI steps in.”
Ruli AI offers a legal platform with two primary components:
This dual approach makes Ruli AI a trusted partner that helps lawyers focus on what they do best: solving complex legal challenges.
At the heart of Ruli AI’s mission is the drive to solve a problem that plagues the entire legal industry: inefficiency! The numbers are staggering. In a typical in-house legal team, a single lawyer might support 100 or more employees, resulting in a backlog of unanswered questions, delayed document reviews, and unproductive hours spent on repetitive tasks.
Ruli AI helps lawyers bridge the gap by giving them tools to expand their expertise without adding more headcount. At the same time, it cuts costs, making legal services more affordable for clients and customers.
A big complaint from lawyers is the overload of documents and work leaving very little to focus on high level strategy work. Ruli AI handles more of this mundane, so that lawyers can now focus more on high impact projects. Tasks like reviewing contracts for payment terms or ensuring compliance with privacy policies are time-consuming but essential.
Ruli AI shows that AI & Law is a perfect fit. There is growing consensus that at least in the Legal field, AI is being viewed more as an Aid, and not a Replacement. By automating routine tasks, AI can empower lawyers to spend more time on complex cases, strategic thinking, and client relations. This technological shift allows legal teams to work more efficiently and cost-effectively while maintaining high-quality services.
