Our team

Built by practitioners and engineers, to one standard of truth.

A working team led from Accra: senior legal judgment, a dedicated engineering group, and a practitioner-curated corpus behind every cited answer. We hire slowly and to a high bar, because every word in the corpus carries a lawyer's name behind it.

The team today

Senior judgment, engineered to scale.

Small by design. Lawyers set the standard, engineers make it repeatable, and nothing enters the corpus without a qualified legal professional behind it.

Engineering
10

Engineers led by the CTO, building the platform, the agents, and the API.

Advisory
20+

Senior lawyers with in-house and general counsel experience worldwide, alongside finance and business leaders who keep the alliance delivering on its mandate.

Curation
Practitioner-led

Every instrument reviewed by a qualified legal professional before it enters the corpus.

How the work holds up

Practitioners curate every instrument to the provision; engineers turn that into a live, queryable system; senior counsel set the bar. The result is intelligence a regulator, a board, or an auditor can stand behind.
