Relay AI isn't just a tool—it's your new competitive advantage.
At 2nd Chair, we're on a mission to simplify the complexities of legal work and empower professionals to focus on what truly matters—strategic thinking, high-impact tasks, and delivering results.
Relay was born from the collaborative vision of co-founders Austin and Drew, longtime friends who first connected at the University of Puget Sound. Austin, a seasoned lawyer, experienced the inefficiencies and bottlenecks that plague the legal profession firsthand. Drew, a machine learning expert with nearly a decade of experience, saw the transformative potential of AI to address these challenges.
Together, they created a solution that combines cutting-edge technology with the practical needs of legal professionals. What started as an idea for a virtual assistant quickly evolved into something far more groundbreaking: a new way to manage clients. Our tool empowers your clients, but you stay as an expert guide on the loop. Your clients get fast answers, excellent legal information, and you're there to provide legal guidance. Plus - they can ring a button and send you business.
Built on Trust, Transparency, and Impact
Our Core Philosophy
At 2nd Chair, we believe that legal professionals don't need AI tools that try to do everything. Clients are already going to ChatGPT or Google instead of lawyers. How could lawyers keep up? We built a client application layer for law firms to white label and roll out. You stay the expert and you are the hero rolling out your firms own AI tool. We ride as your 2nd Chair — giving you the technology to step into the 21st century.
Plus, you can audit the AI using our revolutionary capability: the Provenance Engine, a proprietary feature currently in the patent process. This isn't about overloading you with unnecessary features. It's about creating a tool that works seamlessly within your existing workflows, enhancing productivity without disruption. Relays intuitive design eliminates complexity, allowing you and your clients to get the answers you need quickly, confidently, and efficiently. Best of all, we make it fast and easy to audit the AI for precision and clarify.
Think of legal tools like a toolbox. A feature-packed, overly complicated tool might sound appealing at first, but in practice, it often becomes a source of frustration.
At 2nd Chair, we believe simplicity is key. Relays streamlined approach reduces cognitive load, delivering a user experience that feels natural, easy, and purposeful. You don't have to be a technology expert for your firm to have your own sophisticated tools.
With Relay AI you’re gaining a trusted partner that’s designed to integrate effortlessly into your workflow. Whether it’s verifying sources, summarizing complex documents, or simplifying legal research, let Relay handle the heavy lifting so you can do what you do best: practicing law.
