Time to let the cat outta the bag... LOI Venture is stoked to announce we’ve invested in Haloo's $4.7M CAD investment round 🎉 What’s Haloo? Great question, amigo. Founded by the legendary Julie MacDonell, Haloo is a legaltech startup that's leveraging AI and machine learning to revolutionize the world of trademark searches. Haloo's using word-leading technology to replace the slow and complex human process of identifying if a trademark is available for use and registration. In Julia MacDonell’s words to BetaKit she said— “Haloo hyper speeds up the work of lawyers. In our platform, we can run 10 searches in under 60 seconds.” As a comparable, in human hours, this would take 12 hours.” 🤯 We couldn’t be more excited to be part of Haloo's journey and we look forward to seeing their future product roadmap unfold.
