LUCI is founded by three students from the law institute, NLSIU Bangalore.
“This product is the outcome of our collective frustration with all engineer-produced legal research databases that fail to remotely understand what we’re actually trying to achieve, leading to grossly inefficient research and hours of wasted time,” says Dhruv. “At LUCI we believe lawyers no longer need to spend hours pouring over cases and acts to find the law. Advances in AI have made it possible for software to intelligently read and comprehend legal data to directly compile the answer a lawyer needs. We are taking a fresh, lawyer centric and domain-specific approach to applying AI to the law.” Both founders are self-taught programmers. The startup has a working prototype.
