Talking Tree is a nonprofit legal platform built by lawyers to help small businesses and startups access affordable legal help. We offer AI-powered tools (including an AI legal assistant), plain-English resources, expert guidance, and community connections so you can handle legal issues with confidence—without the BigLaw price tag.

Talking Tree is for first-time founders, small business owners, startup teams, and legal professionals who want smarter, faster ways to handle legal tasks. Whether you’re incorporating, forming an LLC, reviewing contracts, responding to redlines, or chasing unpaid invoices we’re built to support you.

Our platform combines lawyer-trained AI with a growing library of legal tools and templates. Just upload a contract or ask a question, and Talking Tree helps you spot risks, interpret clauses, and take your next step—all in plain English.

Nope. Talking Tree isn’t a law firm or lawyer, and we don’t give legal advice, just general legal information and education. But our tools were built by lawyers to help you understand legal issues, stay compliant, and connect with licensed attorneys that will help you make legal and strategic business decisions. Think of us as your legal co-pilot or consultant.

We help you do more legal work in-house—like reviewing redlined contracts, explaining confusing terms, filling out templates, and avoiding common startup mistakes. You can also explore more use cases here.

Instead of paying hundreds per hour for routine tasks, Talking Tree helps you triage and resolve legal issues quickly. Our tools are designed to give you clear answers up front—so you can avoid unnecessary meetings, hourly fees, and legal fire drills.

Most of Talking Tree is free—our educational resources, webinars, and tutorials come at no cost, along with free access to our Find Counsel and Request for Counsel services. Our advanced legal tools are offered at cost, typically at a 50% discount, with proceeds reinvested into our mission.

Our mission is to democratize legal by providing accessible, affordable legal AI and tools. We empower entrepreneurs and legal teams to make strategic business decisions, navigate legal waters, strengthening communities and fostering innovation. In other words, We’re here to level the playing field for first-time founders, small businesses, boutique firms and nonprofits—so they can grow with clarity, not fear.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Talking Tree is funded through donations, grants, and modest revenue from our cost-based products. Every dollar we raise is reinvested into expanding access to legal education and community resources.
