Scribe exists so no one has to face a legal problem alone or in the dark, whether or not they can afford a lawyer.

Why we exist

Our north star

10 million people by 2030

who understand their legal problem and leave with a clear next step.

  1. A legal problem shouldn’t be a mystery only money can solve.

  2. Most people never ask a lawyer. That’s not their failure; help was built for someone else.

  3. Understanding comes first. You deserve to know what’s happening before you decide anything.

  4. Technology should open the door to lawyers, not pretend to be one.

  5. We measure ourselves by one thing: how many people leave with a clearer next step.

  1. The letter on the kitchen table.

  2. The deadline you didn’t see coming.

  3. The words you’ve never had to know.

If this is you, you’re in the majority.

Two national surveys show how common legal problems are, and how often people face them without a lawyer.

Kyle Moore has spent thirteen years meeting the people this page is for.

For years, the callers who stayed with me were the ones no lawyer would take. Not because their claims were false, but because the fee math didn’t work at any firm. That gap bothered me enough that I built something for it.

  6. Now

    Scribe

    Kyle builds Scribe with Matthew LaCrosse and Mimi Phan, so everyone else can understand what’s happening and what they can do next.

You talk it through. Scribe helps you see it clearly.

Scribe is an AI assistant that gives general legal information and writes a summary you can share with a lawyer. Here’s what that looks like.

  1. Tell it what happened.

    In your own words, by text or video, in English or Spanish. No legal words needed. Start anywhere; it asks what it needs to know.

  2. See it in plain words.

    Scribe gives general legal information about what you’re facing, so the letter starts to make sense and you can see your options.

  3. Leave with a summary that’s yours.

    Scribe writes up what you said. You read it first and fix anything it got wrong. Nothing is sent without your OK.

No catch. No fine print.

Talking with Scribe is free; separate legal services may have a cost.

You don’t pay to explain your situation or ask questions. If you want something more than a conversation, that is a separate service from Scribe Smart Inc., the company that makes Scribe. You see the price before you pay, and you choose whether to go ahead.

Scribe Smart Inc. is a technology company, not a law firm.

Scribe is

  • An AI assistant that gives general legal information and writes a summary you can share with a lawyer
  • Free to talk to
  • In English or Spanish, by text or video
  • Yours to approve: nothing is sent without your OK

Scribe is not

  • A lawyer
  • A replacement for talking to one
  • A law firm
  • Always right

Every conversation starts the same way:“Hi, I’m Scribe, an AI assistant, not a lawyer.”

Scribe is an AI assistant, not a lawyer. A conversation does not create an attorney-client relationship.

AI can make mistakes. Check important details, and talk to a lawyer before you act.

    Every guide cites its sources and shows who wrote it, by name.

  4. No dead ends.

    If we can’t help, we point you to a lawyer or free legal help.

In your words. At your pace.
