He worked as a product manager at INSZoom for a few years before leaving immigration tech and managing product at a few other tech companies.But then in 2020 he came back to immigration tech as Director of product at Legalpad, an immigration tech company that was eventually acquired by global PEO Deel, and Envoy Global.Carl eventually started his own immigration tech startup, trying to focus on AI-supported visa prep and drafting, but every time he asked where lawyers were REALLY getting stuck, the answer was… email. That’s what led him and his co-founders to pivot and focus solely on optimizing email with AI!So, here’s what we’re going to talk about:🔹 Carl’s early life, early career, and journey from lawyer to legal tech product manager and expert.🔹 What Carl learned while in immigration tech and what inspired him to start his own startup.🔹 How Carl pivoted from AI legal drafting to email, and why he decided on such a “niche” problem.🔹 What Candle AI does today, how it works, and where the company, and industry, are headed.And more!So please join us, ask questions and leave comments!#immigration #immigrationlaw #legalops #lawfirms #legaltech----Check out Candle AI here: https://www.trycandle.ai/Follow Carl here:   / carlwdavidson  Digital marketing for immigration & global mobility firms at GMI Rocket: https://gmirocket.com/​Digitize your LCA posting and PAF process with LaborLess: https://laborless.io/Connect with Roman Zelichenko on LinkedIn! https://tinyurl.com/romanzel🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
