AI-powered legal software for document drafting, research, and task automation
CORTO builds AI software for legal professionals, with a tech stack anchored in .NET, AWS, and Python — coupled with RAG and agentic AI capabilities now being layered into their core platform. Their hiring velocity is heavily weighted toward senior and lead engineers (18 of 27 roles), suggesting a shift from early product-market fit into scaled infrastructure and AI model integration, particularly around a new free-tier paralegal agent and global forms automation.
CORTO is an AI-powered legal software company based in Sydney, founded in 2023. The platform helps legal firms and professionals accelerate document drafting, legal research, and task automation — currently in use across thousands of law firms globally. Their product spans intake workflows, legal research, document generation, and information management. The engineering-dominant team is concentrated in Australia, with active development across backend APIs, agentic AI systems, and SaaS infrastructure (SSO, billing, multi-region scaling). Key technical challenges include securing compliance while scaling cloud infrastructure and reducing friction in client onboarding.
CORTO's core stack is .NET, AWS (SQS, ECS, Lambda, DynamoDB), PostgreSQL, and Python. Frontend uses React and TypeScript. They integrate with Microsoft 365, Salesforce Service Cloud, and Dropbox/Google Drive APIs, with RAG and MCP for AI capabilities.
Active projects include an agentic AI core platform, free-tier paralegal AI agent, RAG data ingestion, global forms automation, TypeScript application rebuild, billing/accounting APIs, and SSO implementation for their SaaS infrastructure.
