EvenUp is on a mission to close the justice gap using technology and AI. We empower personal injury lawyers and victims to get the justice they deserve. Our products enable law firms to secure faster settlements, higher payouts, and better outcomes for victims injured through no fault of their own in vehicle collisions, accidents, natural disasters, and more.

We are one of the fastest-growing vertical SaaS companies in history, and we are just getting started. EvenUp is backed by top VCs, including Bessemer Venture Partners, Bain Capital Ventures, SignalFire, and Lightspeed. We are looking to expand our team with talented, driven, and collaborative individuals who seek to have a lasting impact. Learn more at www.evenuplaw.com.

EvenUp’s document products empower attorneys to represent their clients more effectively and secure better outcomes. With over $1.5B in damages claimed to date, the Document Generation team is developing an industry-leading, AI-native platform for generating legal documents in personal injury law.

Demand Letters, our flagship product, drives EvenUp’s rapid growth, enabling customers to achieve higher settlements and resolve cases faster—making it a critical part of the personal injury workflow.

Medical Chronologies, our newest and fastest-growing offering, delivers comprehensive overviews of medical treatment and injury impact, equipping attorneys with the insights needed for world-class pre-litigation and litigation support.
