Founding Network Leads

Bring the people who know the work together.

Host small gatherings for legal professionals and help Reasoning learn where AI succeeds, where it falls short, and what better looks like.

AI can read the law. It still has to learn judgment.

That knowledge lives with the people making hard legal calls every day. The founding network is how we listen.

The role

Start with one community you already care about.

It might be privacy lawyers in London, legal operators in Berlin, alumni in New York, or a group you’ve quietly helped for years. You don’t need a huge audience. You need trust.

Gather

Bring together a legal community you know through a dinner, briefing, or focused conversation.

Listen

Learn what people trust, question, and still need from legal AI.

Help shape what comes next

Share the clearest lessons with Reasoning and help choose what we test next.

What you get

Build the network with us.

We’re early by design. The first leads will help shape both the work and the program around it.

Support for the first gathering

We’ll help shape the format and agree any event support before launch.

A direct line to Reasoning

Share what you learn with the team—and see how it informs the work.

A founding voice

Help define the program alongside the first cohort of Network Leads.

Who it’s for

Lawyers, educators, operators, alumni leaders, and community builders who know one legal community deeply. No recruiting background or large following required.

How it starts

One useful first move.

  1. Apply

    Tell us about the community you know and why people trust you.

  2. Talk with us

    We’ll learn what would be useful to your community and answer your questions.

  3. Start with one useful pilot

    Together, we’ll agree on a first gathering, the support, and what we hope to learn.

Before you begin, we’ll agree on the scope, time, support, and any compensation in writing.

Practical questions

A few things to know.

The founding cohort

Who would come together because you asked?

Tell us who you know and what would be useful to them. We’ll begin with a conversation and shape the first pilot together.

No deck. No follower minimum. Just a credible community and a thoughtful first move.
