The Legal Challenge for Indian Businesses

Problem Statement

Startups and small businesses in India face high legal costs, complex compliance, and a lack of personalized support. Most platforms offer only digital paperwork, with no real advocate access, no instant AI help, and no flexible or freemium options. This leaves entrepreneurs struggling with deadlines, regulatory changes, and limited guidance.

Key Pain Points in Indian Legal Tech

Cost & Complexity

Legal services are often expensive and confusing, especially for new and growing businesses.

Limited Support

Most platforms lack real advocate services, instant chat, or AI-powered help, making urgent or complex issues hard to resolve.

Compliance Risks

Missed deadlines, regulatory changes, and no proactive reminders put businesses at risk of penalties and lost opportunities.
