LIGIT · AI LEGAL ASSISTANT FOR INDIA
The Paralegal You Never Had
Affordable, tireless, multilingual — built and battle-tested on real Indian legal data.
The problem
Indian legal research and drafting is slow, expensive and fragmented — a ₹1.09 lakh crore market where lawyers and firms still rely on manual paralegal work for research, chronology-building and contract drafting.

My scope
Three pillars I owned
01
Product Management
Owned the Early Adopter Program end-to-end — feedback loops, RICE-scored prioritization, bug and feature tracking, SOPs for support and onboarding. Ran 1:1 research calls with Supreme Court lawyers and litigation associates.
02
Product Strategy
Defined segmentation (law firms, individual practitioners, law colleges, fresh grads), wrote positioning ("Paralegal You Never Had"), authored a 2-phase roadmap (MVP → compliance/risk differentiators) and built pricing architecture (5 tiers, token-cost margin modelling).
03
Marketing
Designed the GTM funnel end-to-end (Awareness → Retention → Expansion) with channel-specific CAC targets, segment messaging and partnership strategy across private law firms, NLU faculty and court chambers.

Proof of value
Ligit vs. the market leader
Test prompt asked to both tools: “What is the Supreme Court ruling on the pet feeding case in India?”
Ligit
Cited the actual Aug 2025 bench order (stray dog removal, modified by a 3-judge bench), gave specific compliance directions — sterilisation, no public feeding outside designated zones — and referenced exact case law (Nagaraja v. UOI, 2014).
Lucio
Opened with “there is no single, unified Supreme Court judgment for the pet issue” — hedged, generalized across years, lighter on citation specificity.
Same prompt, side by side — Ligit returned the actual ruling; the market leader hedged.
