About Us

When we first built our own company together, we experienced first-hand on the lack of affordable legal services made available for small and medium-sized businesses. It was challenging to find specialized lawyers at a reasonable price, leading to issues like hiring the wrong lawyer, a mismatch in service quality, and unaddressed legal needs. We believe our expertise and background in AI and legal expertise can help address this problem.

Utilising AI has allowed Aligna to shift away from a hourly billing rate to an affordable, pay-per-contract pricing model. For a much more affordable price, Aligna does not compromise on its quality when our AI systems are supplemented with experienced lawyers to help provide the best-in-class legal contract reviews that are tailored for small and medium-sized enterprises.
