Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about TwinCounsel
Product & Vision
What makes TwinCounsel different from other legal AI tools?
Most legal AI tools require you to learn complex prompting, organize your data first, and adapt to new software. We believe there's a better way. TwinCounsel will automatically organize your scattered matter data from your inbox—so you get accurate context on day 1, not months later. No prompting, no data entry, no new software to learn. Just delegate via email in natural language, like you would to any team member.
Why email instead of another software platform?
We think the agentic future of work is natural language, not more software interfaces. Just like the no-code movement made software accessible without technical skills, we're making AI accessible without prompt engineering or tech overhead. Your inbox is where legal work already happens—why force you into another platform? Delegate tasks in plain English, and TwinCounsel handles the rest.
How does the Context Engine work?
The Context Engine is our approach to solving the scattered data problem. It will automatically analyze your emails, attachments, and calendar to build a comprehensive, organized view of each matter—parties, timelines, documents, deadlines, and your specific preferences. This personalized context engineering means the AI understands YOUR firm's templates, YOUR matter details, and YOUR workflows from day one. Generic AI can't do this because it doesn't have access to your actual practice data.
How can I trust the AI's work product?
We're building audit trails and provenance tracking into everything TwinCounsel does. You'll be able to see exactly where information came from, verify accuracy, and maintain full professional responsibility. All work product will be presented for your review before finalization. The AI augments your judgment—it doesn't replace it.
Security & Confidentiality
How will my confidential client information be protected?
We're designing TwinCounsel to meet SOC 2 and ISO 27001 standards from day one. The system will use enterprise-grade security with attorney-client privilege protections built in. Your data will never be used to train AI models—it remains completely confidential to your practice. All work product will be presented for your review before finalization, ensuring you maintain full professional responsibility.
How will my data be protected?
We're building TwinCounsel with enterprise-grade security designed to meet SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance standards. This includes encryption at rest and in transit, secure access controls, and regular security audits. Your data will never be used to train AI models and remains completely confidential to your practice. You'll maintain full control over what information the system can access.
Getting Involved
What do I need to get started?
An email system and regular document preparation needs. TwinCounsel will work with standard email platforms like Gmail and Outlook. No special hardware or software installation required—and no need to organize your data first. We'll handle that automatically.
How can I get involved in shaping TwinCounsel?
We're looking for solo practitioners and small law firms to help us understand what to build. Share your workflow challenges, influence product priorities, and get early access when we launch. We've already conducted over 40 attorney interviews and a two-month embedded study with a solo practice—your input helps ensure we're building something truly useful for small firms.
