This episode gets into why intake remains broken, why legal ops is becoming one of the most important roles in the business of law, and why the next wave of AI value will come from embedding legal into the tools the business already uses. Hosted by David Cowen Key Topics Covered Why Evan built Checkbox to become the operating system for legal , not just another point solution The core problem Checkbox solves: legal intake is still messy, manual, and invisible across most organizations Why the first major champions of this category were legal ops leaders who understood legal as a business function How Checkbox evolved from a no-code workflow tool into a system of record and front door for legal Why the future of legal intake is not forms and ticketing systems, but AI embedded into email, Slack, Teams, Salesforce, and everyday workflows Evan's view that the GC is increasingly a wartime role , creating space for legal ops to evolve into a more strategic chief-level business function A hard truth about the market right now: the biggest challenge is not lack of tools, but too much noise, too many AI labels, and not enough clarity on what to implement first 🎧 Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.
