Our story

Where did it all begin?

In 2008, Jack Newton and his lifelong friend Rian Gauvreau co-founded Clio. Jack brought a deep background in software engineering and a conviction that the cloud would reshape legal work. Some say never mix business with friends, but nearly two decades later, Clio is the global leader in legal AI—so we think the bet paid off.

What is Clio’s mission?

Transform the legal experience for all. We’re the global leader in legal AI, building the Intelligent Legal Work Platform—the industry’s first system of action—that empowers legal professionals and law firms of every size to work smarter, faster, and more securely. By moving beyond systems of record and into action, we’re shaping a more efficient, accessible, and inclusive legal system. Learn more about our mission.

What’s it like working at Clio?

It’s fun. It’s challenging. It’s rewarding. With more than 2,000 employees across Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary, London, Manchester, Dublin, Sydney, Barcelona, and Bogotá we’re tackling one of the world’s most complex professional challenges together.

Building technology that actually helps our customers do their best work.
