Introducing Launchpad: Free Legal Services for Ambitious Startups

As founders ourselves, we've lived through the startup journey.
We know the sleepless nights, the constant pivots, and the hours of relentless time spent to build something new and valuable.
We love working on Veraty.ai.
But we don’t love spending hours on compliance and law - time that could’ve been better spent on building Veraty. Legal shouldn’t be the thing that stalls great ideas before they get off the ground.
Yet the statistics are sobering. A significant portion of startups close because they faced regulatory or legal challenges they couldn't recover from. Meanwhile, most startups don't think lawyers are affordable, with 1 in 5 paying for legal services with personal savings. There's clearly a massive gap between what startups need and what they can actually afford.
That's exactly why we built Veraty's Launchpad program—to eliminate legal barriers for the next generation of innovators.
Why We're Doing This
Our core belief is simple: we think the traditional law firm model is broken. You should have fixed-fee upfront pricing, not per-hour costs. Legal advice should be affordable, convenient, and accessible to everyone—especially the entrepreneurs building tomorrow's solutions.
Traditional law firms operate on a model that works for established enterprises but fails startups spectacularly. Hourly billing, lengthy retainers, and complex engagement processes aren't just expensive—they're actively hostile to the speed and agility that startups require.
We've built Australia's first AI-native legal service specifically to solve this problem. By scaling legal expertise with AI technology, we can offer a genuine alternative to expensive law firms: affordable legal advice without compromise, delivered in minutes.
Who Launchpad Is For
We designed Launchpad for early-stage startups that are serious about building something meaningful but don't have the legal budget of a Fortune 500 company.
Specifically, you're eligible if you:
- Are less than 2 years old as a business
- Are a new subscriber to Veraty
- Have a custom registered domain and email
- Are operating as either a sole trader or registered company
This isn't about company size or funding stage—it's about supporting founders who are in that critical early phase where every dollar matters and legal mistakes can be catastrophic.
The Benefits: Everything You Need to Handle Legal Properly
Launchpad gives you comprehensive legal support without the traditional price tag:
Free 30-Minute Legal Consultation
Get direct access to one of our registered lawyers to discuss your specific situation and legal needs. No sales pitch—just practical advice from someone who understands both law and business.
3 Months Free Veraty Starter Subscription
Full access to our AI-native platform for legal document drafting, compliance guidance, and contract review. This is where our core belief comes to life—AI does the heavy lifting, lawyers always review the output, and you get professional-grade legal work at a fraction of traditional costs.
Ongoing Support That Scales With You
After your free period, get 50% off your Veraty subscription for up to 12 months, plus discounted access to our partner law firms when you need that human touch.
Referral Benefits
Refer another eligible startup and you both get an additional month free. We believe in supporting the entire startup ecosystem, not just individual companies.
How It Actually Works
This isn't just another "freemium" play. Our approach combines AI efficiency with human expertise:
- AI does the initial work—drafting documents, analyzing contracts, researching compliance requirements
- Lawyers always review—ensuring accuracy and completeness
- Direct lawyer access—for strategy, nuance, or additional assurance when you need it
Your legal documents live in Veraty's secure Knowledge Base, which learns about your business over time and provides increasingly personalized advice. It's like having a legal team that actually understands your company's specific context and history.
The Bigger Picture
Launchpad isn't charity—it's an investment in the future we want to see. We believe that when startups can access quality legal services without breaking the bank, they build better, more compliant businesses from day one. They spend less time worrying about legal landmines and more time creating value for their customers.
That's better for entrepreneurs, better for the economy, and ultimately better for everyone.
