About
Craft, truth, and systems that last.
lawv exists because lawyers deserve to understand the systems reshaping their profession, and to build their own.
Knowledge before models.
A firm's vocabulary, matters and sources are its real asset. Models come and go; well-structured knowledge compounds.
Checked, not trusted.
Every output is read against its sources by someone accountable for it. That is not a limitation of AI — it is legal practice.
Own what you build.
Your accounts, your data, your code. We teach so you can leave us, not so you depend on us.
Say what isn't true yet.
No invented dates, prices, partnerships or testimonials. If something is a proposal, we call it one.
Founder
Jonathan Aiken
Founder of Pivot · SurrealDB Ambassador
Jonathan has spent around thirty years designing and building systems, including work at Microsoft and Nokia, and founded Pivot.
As a SurrealDB ambassador, he works closely with connected-data approaches — the idea that a firm's matters, people, documents and obligations are a graph, not a pile of files. lawv brings that thinking to legal practice, alongside the rigour lawyers already apply to their work.

Two environments, kept deliberately separate.
Legal-practice workshops
Taught in the ChatGPT and Claude applications. Plans, features and access are confirmed per exercise before booking.

A custom system on Lovable, Supabase, Voyage AI, SurrealDB, Amazon Bedrock. Model access through Bedrock does not imply application features such as Projects.
Honest limitations
- —lawv is education. It does not give legal advice or act for clients.
- —lawv is independent and is not an accredited partner of OpenAI, Anthropic or any vendor named on this site.
- —No programme has run publicly yet, so there are no outcomes to report.
- —The DO Lectures is an inspiration for our learning format; there is no affiliation.
