Being a product owner is turning out to be an interesting moment to screw a bit with your mind and your thought process.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve worked on DraftCheck.io<\/a> now for quite some time. That process of building something is one that I love and am familiar with. I just simply love building things.<\/p>\n

However building things for lawyers is, from my perspective, harder.<\/p>\n

As lawyers, we are trained, and the profession requires (or at least it feels that way) perfection or near perfection. Missing small things in sentence or a word can have very negative results, even if easily fixable. And the higher the dollar value the more the importance of it. We all had that law school class where they drilled in the importance of a comma, and I would assume most lawyers have had a moment where something went for or against your client for something that small as well.<\/p>\n

So my brain goes a little nutty when building products for me (because I am basically my target customer right now) and my friends. The same standard applies. Missing something can have disastrous results. And being the product builder\/owner is very different than being the product\u2019s lawyer (in-house or outside counsel), user, or what have you. It\u2019s your essence in a piece of code, software, or essentially a button.<\/p>\n

I take great pride in DraftCheck.io<\/a>. The goal is to catch everything (not just some things) and to do it with exceptional accuracy and reliability. 80% isn\u2019t ok. There are always going to be moments when a feature doesn\u2019t work as expected, but it can\u2019t miss stuff. The product can give you too much, but can\u2019t give you too little. That\u2019s the requirement of being a lawyer and therefore the requirement of building products for lawyers.<\/p>\n

I always want that second set of eyes. And we all know a couple of things: 1. When you\u2019ve read something 20x, some things start to blur over; and 2. Those really long documents (who hasn\u2019t done a 150 page doc with 10 additional exhibits), no one is categorizing that doc in their head perfectly.<\/p>\n

And so DraftCheck.io<\/a> was born.<\/p>\n

I truly hope you all love it. It\u2019s been a labor of love for me. And I hope it\u2019s successful enough that I can continue to build more of the products that I want (and hopefully you want to).<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll most likely post a lot of thoughts over the next while of the intersection of lawyer and product owner and why DraftCheck.io<\/a> was created. Soooo many little decisions that have helped get the product here. And soooo many people that have helped along the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
