In this episode, Tom Martin interviews Cecilia Zeniti, co-founder and CEO of GCAI, about her journey from Italian immigrant to Silicon Valley legal AI entrepreneur. Cecilia shares how her experiences as general counsel at Amazon, Bloomberg, and various startups informed her creation of AI tools specifically designed for in-house legal teams.
Learn how her immigrant background fostered entrepreneurial thinking, why being an "insider without incumbent baggage" allowed GCAI to achieve rapid product-market fit, and how treating legal AI as "good software that lawyers use" transforms adoption. Cecilia offers practical insights on balancing multiple responsibilities while building innovative solutions that actually solve real problems for busy general counsel.
