Ruben Miessen Co-founder and CEO at LegalFly: 8x ARR Growth in One Year
Description
More than 80% of corporate legal work is repetitive, and it is still being billed by the hour. LEGALFLY is building the legal operating system for in-house teams, automating contracts, compliance checks and due diligence at scale.
I spoke with Co-founder and CEO Ruben about why legal budgets are shifting from law firms to AI tools, how junior-heavy legal models are starting to break, and how LegalFly grew 8x ARR last year by focusing on enterprise clients where data security is non-negotiable.
