Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

Shane Parrish: How would you explain Harvey to somebody listening to this who doesn’t work in legal?

Winston Weinberg: What we’re doing is building a system for lawyers to use all of these models to do their work in a much better way, in much more streamlined way. That’s an incredibly broad explanation for what the company does. Another way to think about it is we are basically tracking the progress of all of these models in the system and applying it to an industry. So in a way, what you’re kind of doing is building a legal brain. And it’s the same thing that other folks are doing in other verticals, like in the medical vertical. It’s like what you’re trying to build over time is a medical brain. And there are a lot of things to break down there. Where what you have to do is say, okay, where is a model going to do a lot of the work? Where is a human going to actually be reviewing this?
