About 8rney

Built for the lawyers who still
care about the craft.

8rney is a legal agent — one that reads the whole matter, cites its sources, and hands the work back ready to review. We're not here to replace lawyers. We're here to give them back the hours they lose between tools.

Why we built this

The best lawyers we know spend half their day shuffling tabs.

Legal teams are sharp. The tools around them are not. The best practitioners we know were spending more time managing context — ten tabs, three apps, one inbox — than actually doing legal work.

Research lived in Westlaw. Files in SharePoint. Drafts in Word. Notes in an inbox. Every new session meant re-briefing whatever tool you opened next. The work was happening, just buried under the shuffling.

8rney is one agent that holds the whole matter. Reads the files, remembers the case, cites the sources, flags the risks. We think that's how it should work.

How we build

Three principles, no exceptions.

Cite, or shut up.

Every claim traces back to a real statute, case, or document. If the agent can't find a source, it says so rather than guessing.

Context survives the session.

You shouldn't re-brief an agent at the start of every call. Memory is a feature, not an afterthought.

Judgment stays with the lawyer.

The agent handles the first pass. Final calls belong to qualified counsel — that's the product, not a disclaimer.
