Hey Product Hunt crew!
I’m Felix Gerlach, chef cook at platus (platus.com). We’re thrilled to launch our legal agent platform today.
It’s built to make legal departments faster, smarter, and honestly just better at getting stuff done.
Think custom agents you can shape to your needs - deploy them as standalone apps or right inside your team’s workflow.
One standout is our “Analyzer Agent.” Give it a spin here: https://app.platus.com/apps/f5c9...
This agent comes to life with simple modules - pair a “Document Input” with the “AI-powered Analyzer module” right on the canvas and voilà.
And of course, it can even go deeper. Deploy it with your personalized company - or case context, and watch it turn into a surprisingly powerful tool. Add some more context or personalized instructions, and it’s like giving your legal work a brain upgrade—handling tedious tasks in a snap.
We’re all about letting legal pros take the reins. You know your world best, so why wrestle with code or ping-pong with devs?
Build what you need, fast—whether you’re a solo lawyer scaling your expertise or a legal team churning through contracts. It’s flexible: use it as an external app or embed it where you work.
For the tech heads out there, you’ll dig the speed. No clunky setups - just craft agents that tackle document analysis or whatever else you throw at them, with room for custom tweaks. Less technical? No sweat - it’s intuitive enough to jump in and start building.
Here’s a taste of what else we can do:
- Document Redactor Agent: Link
- Document Translator Agent: Link
- Document Fill Agent: Link
We’ve seen teams cut hours off their week already, and we’re just getting started. What do you think - got a legal task you’d toss at it? Drop a comment, we’d love to hear!

@felixgerlach Congrats on the launch and the journey so far
@felixgerlach Congrats on the launch! Pretty impressive feat. Your API docs seem quite limited, do you only offer those endpoints, or are there plans to expand?
Hi @dineshan_sithamparanathan ,
thanks for your question!
We will soon extend API support to any specific legal agent that has been built. This means there is no longer one monolithic API, but rather a network of specialized, dedicated APIs—one for each agent. You have full control over whether to keep your agent private or make it publicly available.
Keep an eye on our updates.
@1aleksa Thanks so much for your support, Aleksa! 💪
Congrats on the YC launch, @felixgerlach !
Custom agents for legal teams is the inevitable future.
Forensic observation on your positioning web-signal:
Your UI/Brand language feels very "Modern Lifestyle / D2C" (beige tones, soft typography). While beautiful, it might create cognitive friction for conservative Enterprise Legal Departments.
General Counsels usually look for "Boring Reliability" signals rather than "Trendy Aesthetics". It costs contracts.
Just a thought on point for upmarket sales. Hope you beat the market!
Keep cooking Platus 🌶️🌶️🌶️ AI improving one of the most frustrating industries as a consumer is exactly what we need!
@robin_rudolph Exactly! The foundation of every legal transaction are documents... and who’s better equipped to handle them, humans or tech (platus.com)?
I appreciate your approach of combining several complementary services in one place. Congrats on the launch!
@michael_vavilov Great to read your message & thanks for supporting our launch!
Huge. About time we step away from the manual work and inherently clunky setups! Excited about the focus on the entire workflow vs. just one piece of the puzzle. Congratulations on the launch, Team Platus!
Any other agents I should check out? Can already see the "Document Redactor Agent" saving not just time, but unnecessary stress. Any case studies I can refer to, to push the product internally/ to people in my network?
Congrats on the launch! Certainly something I look forward to using and what I imagined a legal AI agent should be. Design looks great as well as use cases and things you can do with legal docs. I'll be watching this product and excited to try!
@kenny_hawkins Kenny - thanks so much for your support! Lets find some time next week! Would love to demo you fully Platus' capabilities! cal.com/fg
Congrats on the launch, Felix and Alex! I was wondering how long it would take for AI to elbow its way into the legal field. Platus looks like a great big step in that direction, giving legal teams a way to speed up workflows without the dev bottleneck. Love how flexible and intuitive it looks, especially with custom agents that actually fit real world legal needs. Excited to see how teams put this to work!
@shant_hambarsoumian Shant, great to read your comment! Lets stay connected!
Awesome work! Can’t wait to push for more automation in the legal industry together with Platus.
@nico_heinken Incredible to see your support here - thank you!
