We start with mdoc: open PDFs, scans and Word files, replace client names with aliases, and paste the text into ChatGPT or Claude. The real names come back in the reply, and nothing is uploaded.

  • Free, no account or subscription
  • Open source, code on GitHub
  • mdoc runs locally on Mac and Windows

What we build

Open tools for AI-native lawyers.

Lawyers already work with AI assistants. We build the free utilities around them, in the open.

01

Made for working with AI

Our tools prepare your work for the assistants you already use, such as ChatGPT or Claude. They don’t replace them.

02

Confidential by design

mdoc runs on your computer. Nothing leaves it until you copy text out yourself, and what you copy carries aliases, not names.

03

Free and open source

No subscription and no account. The code is public: check it, report an issue or contribute on GitHub.
