I’m beginning to think that people don’t really want to work at companies. what they really want is to work at a research lab or a creative studio or a think tank or some other communal setup where likeminded people can do interesting things together





Harvey is valued at $11B. Legora just raised at $5.5B. I built their entire web application in two weeks and I'm making it open-source and free for everyone to use. Say hi to Mike: mikeoss.com. When I got the chance to try Harvey and Legora, I was surprised by how simple they were. A thought came to mind: I could probably build something similar in no time at all with Claude. And so I did. Assistant, project, tabular review and workflows. You get it all without vendor lock-in.

You can try Mike in the demo on the website, or go to the GitHub link on the site to download the code and run a local version yourself.
