Spellbook and Harvey are the Juicero of legal tech. For those who don't remember, Juicero was the $700 WiFi-connected juicer that squeezed proprietary juice bags. Then Bloomberg discovered you could just . . . squeeze the bags with your hands. $120M in venture funding, dead within months. That's what's happening in legal AI right now. Companies are raising hundreds of millions to build a fancy chrome press around Claude and GPT (adding dashboards, "legal-specific" wrappers, and enterprise pricing) when the underlying models are already better at legal work than anything these wrappers add. The wrappers don't make the juice taste better. They just make it more expensive.
