Deep dives
Founding Story of Ajax
The co-founders of Ajax, Jack and Alex Weinberg, were inspired to create their timekeeping solution from a personal experience when Jack's brother witnessed his girlfriend struggle to submit her hours for billing. This situation sparked a realization that many lawyers face similar challenges, often spending excessive time on billable hours, which can lead to lost revenue. Initially, they attempted to build software for construction equipment management, but their lack of expertise in that area led to failure. The experience ultimately guided them back to a more relatable problem within the legal profession, setting the stage for Ajax's development.
