We help legal teams launch AI use cases with speed, predictability, and quality. No heavy lift. No internal buildout. Just expert support that gets you moving.

What Makes Applied
Innovation Different

Applied Innovation is a flexible delivery model built for legal teams navigating GenAI transformation.

You get modular, sprint-based access to a team of strategists, researchers, designers, and developers who specialize in AI delivery for law firms and in-house legal teams.

That might mean scoping use cases, prototyping interfaces, or developing and deploying AI tools. Depending on the complexity of the solution, design, build, and deployment can all happen within a single sprint. We adjust to where you are and what you need.
