In a recent episode of LawNext, the spotlight was on Supio, an AI-driven platform specifically designed for personal injury (PI) lawyers. Having recently raised $60 million in a Series B funding round and demonstrating strong growth with a previous $25 million Series A, the platform is positioned to make a significant impact in the legal domain. A discussion on LawNext sheds light on how the platform is being integrated into legal practices.
Featured on the podcast was Tyler Schneider, the managing partner of TorHoerman Law, who was an early adopter of Supio. His firm notably used the platform in a high-profile case against Abbott Labs, which culminated in a $495 million verdict. The case involved allegations concerning cow’s milk-based infant formula causing severe intestinal inflammation in premature babies. Schneider recounts how Supio facilitated the legal processes, underscoring the platform’s practical applications for PI lawyers.
Also on the episode was Jerry Zhou, CEO and co-founder of Supio. Prior to co-founding the platform in 2021 with Kyle Lam, Zhou held influential roles at tech giants such as Microsoft and Avalara. During their conversation with host Bob Ambrogi, both Schneider and Zhou discuss the development of Supio, its impact, and future aspirations for further advancements of the platform. Insights into how AI is expected to broadly transform the PI practice highlight the emerging role of technology in legal professions.
