Our customers love us because of our deep subject matter expertise. Our Founding Team are ex-lawyers and it’s this know-how that sets us apart from our competitors. Our legal engineering team sits at the heart of everything we do and it is a truly unique role - they are account executives, product managers, legal advisors, customer success managers, designers and solutions architects all in one. Essentially, without our Legal Engineering team, Ivo would not exist!

- Acting as a close and trusted advisor to our customers to help them integrate Ivo into their workflows and adopt best-in-class practices for scaling AI in their day-to-day work.
- Lead product demonstrations and training sessions tailored to the context of various law firm practice groups and in-house legal teams, asking questions to validate how Ivo can add value and then showcasing Ivo’s features and benefits relevant to each prospective client’s potential use cases.
- Implement (and oversee the implementation of) “Playbooks” for our customers derived from their precedents, templates, and historical agreements.
- Work closely with our engineers to improve the outputs of our models and with our designers to improve our UX / UI.
