What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building a case intelligence platform for complex litigation. It helps litigators understand every argument, entity, and event in each case, giving a comprehensive view. Beyond analysis, the platform supports drafting and case management throughout the dispute lifecycle.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in London, England, and plan to keep Crimson based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are based in London because it's a global center for legal innovation and home to many of the complex litigation firms we serve. Staying here keeps us close to our early users.
