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 Attorneys still rely on outdated communication channels, paper-heavy workflows, and manual processes that consume their valuable time and energy.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For professionals tasked with guiding clients through some of life’s most vulnerable moments, this seemed not only outdated, but deeply wasteful.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.

Our Founders

Meet the Founders

Deliberately.ai was born out of a belief that technology should be a force for justice, not a barrier to it. Our founders combine deep expertise in business, technology, and design with a passion for using technology to transform entire industries.

Hans Guntren

Hans made his entrance in Silicon Valley in 1999, where building developer tools during the tech boom gave him firsthand knowledge of the entire startup lifecycle. The tech bust that followed, taught him even more – like how to run a lean enterprise and how focusing on real customer problems can multiply one’s impact.

After contributing to several successful early stage technology exits, he became an advisor to founders equally passionate about creating great solutions to real problems and spent the next ten years guiding startups through the product development lifecycle.

That journey led him to C3.ai, which he joined as Vice President, Product Design and spent eight years creating transformative AI products for the industries powering civilization - allowing them to become the more effective, efficient, and profitable entities they are today.

When he’s not collaborating with attorneys to better understand his customer, he loves parenting his two teenage boys, practicing yoga and meditation, facilitating personal growth retreats and diving deep into cosmology and quantum physics.

Riley Siebel

Riley, a video game nerd, elected to take a class at Princeton under Robert Schapire because he was excited about AI game players and their increasing abilities. One thing led to another, and he found himself building the first ML-based game player for Clue—and majoring in computer science. Riley is primarily motivated by the chance to solve hard problems, in real places, for real people.

Working as Principal Engineer at C3.ai, he was able to do just this: helping longstanding industries deploy solutions to positively impact millions. A favorite example was helping a major oil company predict and prevent exploding oil wells. When he understood the burden attorneys are under to manually process and maintain the sheer volume of data each divorce case represents, he knew he could build what they needed to get back to what they do best.

When he’s not building transformative technologies for the legal industry, he’s climbing, cooking for his family, flying, and waiting for his two young sons to grow into effective board game opponents.

Riley has been thinking about the power of information and the challenge to its domestication his entire life. Growing up in an entrepreneurial family in the Bay Area, he watched the intersection of new technologies and the mundane information every civilization repeatedly generates change the business landscape seemingly overnight.

Studying Computer Science at Princeton and delving deep into AI as it developed, he saw his passion turn into real data-wrangling tools allowing BlackRock Solutions to make better decisions, with more data, more efficiently. His work at C3.ai took him from running ethernet lines in their first office to owning the developer experience for the C3 platform, including the extensive documentation to support effective implementation across diverse use cases.

When he’s not directing Del and other agents managing the creation, improvement, and efficient use of client information facsimiles stored in the platform, he’s climbing, running, kitesurfing, and doing equally exciting things with his wife and sons.
