A workspace to simplify end-to-end due diligence using AI, collaborative tools, and smart workflows.
Our core challenge with Deeligence was to simplify the notoriously complex and time-consuming process of M&A due diligence. From a product and design standpoint, the central question was: "How might we leverage technology to streamline the due diligence process, making it less tedious and time-consuming for lawyers?" Deeligence envisioned an AI-powered, collaborative workspace that could simplify the entire end-to-end process. Our task was to design and build a solution that not only automated key aspects but also minimised errors, controlled costs, and ultimately delivered a smoother, more efficient experience for legal professionals.
Our approach focused on transforming Deeligence's vision into a highly user-centric product. We researched and conceptualised a product to launch Deeligence V1.0, which immediately garnered praise for its efficiency and ease of use, delivering tangible benefits like time and cost savings, reduced errors, and enhanced collaborative decision-making for law firms.
Our ongoing partnership extended to integrating advanced AI solutions, specifically for file processing within their data room, enabling automatic document summarisation – a massive time-saver for corporate teams and the key to adoption for their customers. We maintained a rapid iteration cycle, constantly refining the product, pricing, and messaging based on direct customer feedback. A cross-functional team, specialising in design, engineering, and product, ensured that complex due diligence workflows were simplified into intuitive, error-free user flows, always prioritising the needs and motivations of lawyers and partners in the user experience.
The impact of our product and design strategy for Deeligence was significant. We collaborated to deliver a market-ready product in just 12 weeks, directly addressing key pain points for lawyers and law firms. This rapid definition, build and focus to customer feedback helped Deeligence secure $1M AUD in funding and attract early customers. The platform is now recognised as a leading innovator in legal tech, having secured over four prestigious awards, including "Global legal tech champions".
