🏰 Moat Strategy

Data network effect — more companies and law firms contribute anonymized outcomes, the more valuable and accurate the benchmarks become.

⏰ Why Now?

Dramatic increase in out-of-court restructurings following the 2020-2021 Brazilian bankruptcy law reform has created enough public and semi-public cases to build a statistically meaningful benchmark database for the first time.

Risks & Mitigation

marketmedium severity

Difficulty obtaining real outcome data

Mitigation

Start with synthetic + publicly available cases, then incentivize contribution from early law firm users

legalmedium severity

Antitrust concerns around sharing pricing data

Mitigation

Strict anonymization and only show percentile ranges, never individual company terms
