Our Story
The Story Behind Deliberately.ai
In spite of incredible advances in technology, the way personal law is practiced hasn’t changed much in decades. Attorneys still rely on outdated communication channels, paper-heavy workflows, and manual processes that consume their valuable time and energy. Hans Guntren experienced this firsthand during his own divorce. As he worked with attorneys to navigate the legal system, he was struck by the inefficiencies baked into an already emotionally difficult process.
For professionals tasked with guiding clients through some of life’s most vulnerable moments, this seemed not only outdated, but deeply wasteful. Determined to bring meaningful change, Hans partnered with Riley Siebel — a fellow C3.ai alum and AI expert — to found Deliberately.ai. Their vision: to reimagine the future of legal practice by building a powerful Client Intelligence System. With AI agents to handle the administrative burden, attorneys can now focus on what truly matters — practicing law and serving their clients with care and expertise.
Drawing on experience transforming high-stakes industries like healthcare, defense, and transportation, the founders recognized that AI could empower even the smallest personal law firms to deliver the quality, efficiency, and profitability once reserved for only the largest players.Deliberately.ai is not just legal tech. It’s a shift toward a more deliberate, modern, and human way to practice law.
