London, UK · Legal AI
I build AI products that lawyers actually use - and write about what it takes to make legal innovation stick. I'm Dominic "Dom" Conte - co-founder at Purple, and a former real-estate solicitor.
Writing
Legal training gives you real advantages as a founder - and installs instincts that will quietly kill a product company. These are the habits I had to consciously unlearn, and the ones I kept.
ReadEvery legal AI demo is designed to impress you. Almost none are designed to inform you. A practical guide to the questions that separate a genuinely useful tool from beautifully rehearsed theatre.
ReadThe legal AI everyone talks about has a chat box and a brand. The legal AI that actually wins will have neither - it'll disappear into the tools lawyers already use, and that's exactly why it'll work.
ReadLabs
A management and student-success platform for performing-arts ensembles - shipped on iOS and Android, with a web dashboard for teachers and admins.
An AI assistant that helps patients prepare for a doctor's appointment - turning a worried, rambling description of symptoms into a clear, structured summary to bring to the consultation.
I write, speak and advise on what it actually takes to make legal innovation stick. If that's useful to you, let's talk.
