I am the CEO of Caseway, a company that is changing law.
Legal AI has a trust problem.

That’s why the new announcement out of Simon Fraser University matters.

University of British Columbia has announced a new research collaboration with Caseway focused on one of the toughest problems in AI today: hallucinated legal citations.

Caseway is proud to partner with Northeastern University and the Khoury College of Computer Sciences on applied research that actually matters.

This capstone project, Zero Trust in Practice, dives into the hard, unglamorous work of securing real infrastructure.

Got a message from a user who said he was a huge skeptic before trying Caseway… then told me it “completely changed” his business.

Also asked for a personal template folder feature, which is actually a solid idea.

Wild what forty-nine bucks a month can do...

Last week I was a panelist at Victoria Tech Week, and being back in that environment reminded me how much the city has changed since I left a decade ago. Victoria used to feel like a place where ambitious tech founders eventually had to leave.

OpenAI’s new policy means ChatGPT can no longer provide legal, financial, or medical advice. That’s not just news; it’s a major shift in the industry.

For legal tech companies that are basically ChatGPT wrappers, this is a serious problem. For Caseway, it’s validation.

Libraries matter. Access matters.

After years of legal battles, the Internet Archive is still here—and still fighting for a world where everyone can read, learn, and remember.

@arstechnica.com tells the story: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...
Internet Archive’s legal fights are over, but its founder mourns what was lost
“We survived, but it wiped out the library,” Internet Archive’s founder says.

Had a great time on Friday night and Saturday morning at The Justice Hack 2025, B.C.’s largest access-to-justice hackathon, hosted at McCarthy Tétrault in Vancouver.

It’s been a great week at Austin Startup Week. I came down as part of the Canadian delegation, where nine CEOs were selected to represent Canadian innovation and build new partnerships with Texas companies.

Everyone’s obsessed with the Caseway LED backpack.

New Zoom background unlocked: glowing Caseway sign.

Now every meeting looks like it’s either:

1. A serious AI strategy session

2. Or the afterparty for one

Either way, I’m keeping it lit.

This past week was one for the books.

On Friday, I had the chance to pitch at The Syndicate in front of around 100 people. I shared my journey, from my time in the military, to building an e-commerce company.

✨ What an incredible evening! ✨

Team Caseway had the privilege of attending A Night to Inspire, a beautiful gala in support of InspireHealth Supportive Cancer Care. The event raised an amazing $765,000 for programs and services that help patients and families facing cancer.

Apparently Deloitte had to put up a sign reminding people not to drink the toilet water.

To be fair, it’s not just any toilet water, it’s “LEED Platinum-certified rainwater reuse” toilet water.

Sustainability: ✅. Hydration: ❌.

Really enjoying the Venture Founder program so far. Yesterday I had the chance to pitch in front of about 100 people, a great experience and a good test of the 30 second elevator pitch I’ve been refining.

It's easy to explain what you do in 5 minutes, but very hard in 30 seconds.

Yesterday’s Keiretsu Forum Vancouver event at SFU Venture Labs was a great one. Heard some strong Series A pitches, connected with angels, and wrapped up with good conversations at Rogue Gastown.

Always energizing to see this community in action.

🚨 7-Month Performance Review 🚨

Product: A Baby 👶

Delivery: 9 months + random rollout delays. Logistics were… rough.

Launch: exceeded all KPIs. Lightweight at first, growth metrics now insane.

Features: addictive “new baby” smell (limited edition), game-changing smile update.

An unforgettable evening with the Canadian Cancer Society, fashion, purpose, and breathtaking opera. ✨

A night that celebrated resilience, creativity, and community in support of cancer survivors. 💜

AI is out of control. And why do I look so beat up? lol

We’re in.

Caseway has been accepted into the competitive Innovation UBC’s Venture Founder Fall 2025 cohort!

Why this matters: tough intake, hands-on mentors, and a stage-gated build process that pushes teams to real traction.

Weekend = 2 events + 1 Grouse Grind. 🏔️ We’re building a Vancouver circle of action-doers (no scrubs). If you’re pushing, building, creating — DM me. 🚀
