Legaltech startup conference
We define a legal tech start-up conference as “opportunities for fantasists to meet the credulous and sell them stuff they don't need,” and a successful one where the credulous side of the room have meaningful budgets and a mandate to modernise and innovate at all costs. This is not nearly as implausible as it sounds, or ought to be.

Here is an interesting list for the neural network to parse and analyse: here are the two hundred and seventy-seven Vendors listed in the Legal Geek “Startup Map”[1] Now I confess, not all of these are necessarily for profit businesses (by which I mean intending to make a profit: a large portion of them, however well disposed to the idea of making a profit, clearly won’t ever actually make one) — there are some, even at a equick scan, that don’t such as The Crafty Counsel. But let’s just say, for the sake of argument, that most do. Now there can be no doubt that the amounts spent in the pursuit and defence and analysis of one’s legal rights and obligations are, to all intents, infinite, but the particular problems to be solved by tech are not. There are only so many uses you can but technology to. Do not confuse value of spend and things to spend it on. They are very different.
Even leaving aside the JC”s usual perorations about scale and rent-extraction thresholds — plainly these are to be ignored — just the scale of this list ought to prompt some questions.
These solutions cannot all be different
Many of these startups have had, more or less, the same idea. Most have a variation on one of about five ideas. Each of these ideas is, in the abstract, a sound idea. But it is not enough for your idea to be sound, if a lot of other people have had the same idea. And if for every tech entrepreneur who has had a bright idea, there are other people who have also had that idea, but just not acted upon it — possibly on the pretext that, while it is a good idea, it is also an obvious one, people all over the world have been having it for years, and it would be hard to monetise —

“Legal tech entrepreneurs say the funniest things” department
“we love automation. We love automating complex things. Our app can handle anything with its structured questions: it can add new clauses, new schedules. The complexity is mind-bending.” — Clarilis
