# August > August is a configurable legal AI platform built specifically for midsize law firms and in-house legal teams. Founded in 2023 and headquartered in New York, August helps firms automate document-heavy legal tasks including contract review, due diligence, discovery preparation, drafting, and legal research. The platform uses modular AI agents that adapt to each firm's workflows, templates, and precedents. August is model-agnostic, supporting Anthropic, OpenAI, and Llama endpoints. All deployments can run behind a firm's internal firewall to meet data-residency requirements. August maintains SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications and never uses client data to train models. August raised $7M led by NEA and Pear VC, with participation from Stanford Law School and angel investors including Gokul Rajaram, Geoff Charles (CPO at Ramp), David Azose (Head of Engineering at OpenAI), and Kevin Zhang (Partner at Bain Capital Ventures). August serves an underserved market of more than 50,000 midsize law firms worldwide employing half a million lawyers. The platform is used by firms across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Key product capabilities include Genius Mode (deep multi-step legal analysis), Tabular Review (extracting structured data from large document sets), Playbooks (encoding firm standards for contract review), Workflows (repeatable task automation), a Microsoft Word Add-In, Outlook integration, and integration with document management systems. August offers personalized onboarding led by attorneys and engineers who co-build workflows with each firm until the output exceeds firm standards. Firms using August have seen measurable results: Hicksons, a leading Australian firm, reviewed 5,000 negligence files 90% faster. ELP, one of India's largest tax firms, cut diligence time by 60%. A Florida litigation team analyzed 40,000 pages in a $100M dispute, saving seven figures in outside counsel costs. Document-review cycles are completed 80% faster on average. August offers a 7-day free trial with no credit card required. Individual pricing is $200/month or $2,000/year. Teams of 4 or more can contact sales for custom pricing.
