TBPN Digest · Sep 2025
Digest piece says Kalinda generated about $60K in revenue over four months, had three of the largest U.S. plaintiff law firms as customers, and aimed to become the world's first AI-operated class action law firm.
Company research
Public company, workplace, funding, and market signals
Overview
Kalinda builds AI software for class action and mass tort law firms. Its primary product is an AI intake / claim-vetting engine that extracts proof-of-use and proof-of-injury from medical, pharmaceutical, product, and related records, then helps firms qualify cases faster and even sign retainers. Public sources disagree on the founding year (2022 vs 2025) and headquarters (San Francisco vs a Redmond legal address), so I used the startup-facing sources for the main profile and noted the mismatch.
