In this episode of Technically Legal, host Chad Main talks with husband‑wife founders Kara Peterson and Richard DiBona about their AI‑native legal research app, Describe. The duo explains how a personal employment dispute during the pandemic led them to discover the limitations of Google Scholar and, after the release of ChatGPT, to build a searchable, case‑law database powered by large‑language‑model embeddings. They describe their lean two‑person, unfunded operation, the massive token‑processing effort to clean 100 billion tokens of primary law, and how their complementary engineering and marketing expertise lets them challenge legacy legal research giants. Their goal is to democratize access to justice by offering fast, authoritative legal answers at a fraction of traditional costs.
