Less admin.More human potential.
We’re building Alaro to give people more time for the judgment, ideas and relationships that move businesses forward. An AI colleague that takes responsibility for the work around them, from start to finish.
Our story
Alaro began with a simple observation: too much of a lawyer’s day is spent on process — chasing, coordinating and keeping work moving.
Too much chasing. Too little time for judgment.
Inside a large firm, the hardest part of the work was rarely the law. It was everything around it: the follow-ups, the version checks and the handovers that kept good lawyers busy, but not thinking.
The aim was simple: take that process off lawyers’ plates, so their judgment gets the time it deserves.
Legal teams shouldn’t have to carry every step.
Legal teams should have more time for the decisions and advice that need their expertise.
We want recurring legal work to move forward with less chasing and coordination, while lawyers remain in control of review and approval. That’s the change we’re building Alaro around.
What we believe
Three principles behind the work.
Protect time for judgment.
Every decision about what Alaro takes on starts with one question: does it give a lawyer more time for the calls only they can make? That question guides what we build.
Fit the way teams already work.
We shape Alaro around how legal teams already operate — their habits, documents and relationships — instead of asking them to change how they work to suit a tool.
Keep human oversight explicit.
It should always be clear what Alaro handles, where a lawyer decides and who signs off. Where something is unclear, we would rather ask than assume.
Founders
Founded by Willem Jongert
and Igor Adamski.
Before Alaro, Willem Jongert worked at Paul Hastings, where he saw the problem first-hand: skilled lawyers losing hours to work that had to be done but didn’t need their judgment.
Willem and Igor Adamski started Alaro to change that: an AI paralegal that takes on the recurring work, while lawyers stay in control of review and sign-off.
Who we are
Building the future of work.
We’re a team of lawyers and engineers working at the forefront of AI in the workplace. We combine experience from firms including Freshfields, A&O Shearman and Paul Hastings with the technical skills to build AI colleagues that take work from request to completion.
