Case Study: Slingshot Aerospace accelerates legal research with Ruli

Slingshot Aerospace cuts legal research from days to an hour with Ruli

Slingshot Aerospace, a company operating in the complex and fast-moving space technology sector, faced a significant challenge. Their legal team, led by Senior VP of Legal Markus Hartmann, was overwhelmed by the time-consuming research required to answer critical legal questions in areas like export controls and government contracting. This slow process prevented them from keeping pace with the business's engineering timelines, risking that legal would only be consulted after decisions were made. The vendor, Ruli, provided its AI-powered legal intelligence service to address this.

Ruli compressed the legal research process from days down to hours, allowing the Slingshot legal team to get oriented on an issue rapidly. The solution provided a structured starting point for analysis, identifying relevant laws, areas of uncertainty, and practical risks. This enabled the team to provide faster, more confident advice and shift strategic time from research to judgment. The results included a drastic reduction in research time, the ability to keep more work in-house at a lower cost, and, most importantly, ensuring legal counsel was involved in business decisions from the beginning.
