We’re building the operating system for Indian legal work.
Gotham is the bet that agentic AIwill reshape how legal work gets done — and that the place to start isn’t New York or London, but the courts, tribunals and firms of India, where the work is the most fragmented and the tooling the most absent.
The market nobody is serving.
A ₹1.5L+ crore legal services market.[1] Over 2 million advocates, organised across tens of thousands of law firms.[2] Hundreds of high courts, tribunals and regulators — in twelve languages. Every global tool starts in English and stops at the SCOTUS reporter. We start at day onewith Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam, Punjabi, Odia, Urdu and English — and with the Indian court hierarchy as a first-class citizen.
[1] Indian legal services market — industry estimates vary ₹1.2–1.7 lakh crore (EY Indian Legal Industry 2023; Ken Research 2024). No official government series exists.
[2] Bar Council of India: 2.4 million+ registered advocates as of 2024 (BCI verification census). Firm count is not separately registered; industry estimates from Vahura and BCI state councils put the number in the tens of thousands.
Not a chatbot. An agentic OS.
Four pillars, one substrate. Assistant for the daily questions. Workflows for the matters that repeat. Corpus for the law itself, kept fresh. Compliance so the output is defensible. Lawyer-in-the-loopby design — the agent drafts, counsel decides.
The general-purpose research and drafting surface. Primary-source citations, no hallucinated authority, vernacular-aware.
Twelve ready-made playbooks for the matters Indian firms actually run — ITAT appeals, M&A diligence, SEBI filings, real-estate registration.
Supreme Court, all 25 High Courts, ITAT, NCLT, NCLAT, CESTAT, DRT, DRAT, NCDRC — deduped, embedded, kept current.
DPDP-aligned, India data residency, audit trails on every draft, eSign via NSDL, court-format output.
Engineers, lawyers, and ML researchers.
Cross-disciplinary by design. We pair senior counsel with retrieval researchers and product engineers in the same room — because legal AI built only by technologists ships the wrong product, and legal AI built only by lawyers never ships at all.
A small, senior team headquartered in Bengaluru with counsel in Mumbai. Bios will go up as the team grows.
Private beta. Ninety-six firms.
Onboarding by referral. Two offices — Bengaluru and Mumbai. Incorporated 2025.
