legal content development and marketing for a non-profit

practice

Collaborating with a BC non-profit to create Beagle, an automated chatbot that answers everyday legal questions

Designing and showcasing a robot with empathy

People’s Law School provides plain language information online and in print on retail legal topics (think: consumer issues, money and debt, neighbours). But how can their content be adapted for web-chat and optimized for a younger audience? Enter Beagle.

This project brought together technology consultants, lawyers, copywriters and designers to “train” a robot to have empathy and provide folks with managebale next steps to solve legal problems on their own.
