Benefits

• Equall is building the legal infrastructure for the private markets — a new system for how corporate legal reality is verified, tracked, and continuously managed. • Our AI-native platform extracts, structures, and reconciles corporate legal information, producing auditable outputs such as a cap table tie-out reports, governance dashboards, and personnel summaries grounded in source documents. Equall executes workflows end to end across both due diligence and day-to-day advisory work, verifying a company's legal state and surfacing actionable issues in real time. • In practice, this means: • Investor-side due diligence delivered in hours, not weeks • Company-side client snapshots, continuously updated • Legal team review reduced by an order of magnitude • This opportunity comes at a pivotal moment in Equall's journey. We are working with leading law firms in ECVC and are now entering a period of rapid growth as we scale both our customer base and our product — extending coverage across the venture and emerging companies ecosystem and expanding into private equity and M&A. • Equall brings together leaders across legal, engineering, and AI to deliver transformative value. We listen closely to our customers, build with purpose, and work with both enthusiasm and a steadfast commitment to excellence — driven to reshape how corporate legal work is executed and how legal ground truth is determined. • If you are interested in playing an impactful role in this mission, we would be excited to hear from you.
