Seth Godin’s post yesterday was spot on as to internal discussions at LexBlog, Inc. on why an AI powered publishing assistant on our publishing platform. What’s this AI asssiant for? How will we know it worked? From Seth, Engineering is the powerful practice of being able to deliver artifacts that do what they’re supposed to.

The tag line on the website of Overture Law says, “Unlock hidden revenue in your practice.” But I think this actually undersells what Overture does. It is not so much that it helps you find revenue hidden in your practice, as that it helps you capture revenue you would never have had in the first place. Most solo and small firm lawyers are fully familiar with the dilemma Overture aims to resolve.

If you are a solo practitioner or small firm, you might rely on word-of-mouth and online marketing.

But when the internet is cluttered with legal websites, how can you stand out online?
