Question 1

What is North?

Accepted Answer

North helps law firms put AI to work across the practice. North OS connects your firm’s knowledge and tools to Claude. North Deploy brings the people who install it, tailor it to your workflows, and help your team use it every day.

Question 2

What will our lawyers actually use?

Accepted Answer

Your lawyers work in Claude, supercharged by North with your firm’s knowledge and custom skills. They can draft, review, prepare, and ask questions with the context of their practice close at hand.

Question 3

Why Claude and not a legal AI tool?

Accepted Answer

Most legal AI tools are wrappers around a model: expensive, locked in, and behind the day the model improves. We build on Claude itself, the most capable AI available, so your firm runs on the frontier.

Question 4

We already use Claude. What does North add?

Accepted Answer

North brings your firm’s context into the experience and helps the whole team adopt it. We connect the relevant knowledge, build tools for your workflows, and provide ongoing training and support.

Question 5

Do we need to replace our existing systems?

Accepted Answer

North connects to the tools your firm already uses. We assess your setup together and agree on the connections needed, so adoption fits into the way your firm works.

Question 6

Is our data private and governed?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Skills are governed, work runs behind your own access controls, every claim cites its source, and Claude does not train on your data.

Question 7

How do you handle confidentiality and access to firm information?

Accepted Answer

Confidentiality and access requirements are part of the deployment discussion from the outset. Before connecting firm information, we work with your team to agree on what is accessible, to whom, and under which controls.

Question 8

Can we rely on the work AI produces?

Accepted Answer

AI supports your lawyers’ work; professional judgment and final review remain with them. We help your team establish clear habits for checking outputs and deciding where AI is appropriate.

Question 9

How much time will implementation take from our team?

Accepted Answer

We do the implementation work alongside a small group at your firm. Together, we identify the first workflows, arrange access, and plan training around your practice. The rollout depends on your systems and priorities.

Question 10

How do you get lawyers to actually use it?

Accepted Answer

We start with work they already need to do. Our team comes on-site, learns how your practice operates, and trains people on relevant workflows. We stay involved as questions arise and habits develop.

Question 11

What happens after the initial rollout?

Accepted Answer

North acts as your external Chief AI Officer. We provide ongoing support, introduce updates and new features, and develop custom tools and skills as your firm’s needs evolve.

Question 12

What does North cost, and how do we get started?

Accepted Answer

We scope the engagement around your firm’s size, systems, and priorities. Start with a conversation about your practice; we’ll outline the rollout, ongoing support, and associated costs before you commit.
