AI-native legal counsel, built for velocity. Not the pace of a traditional firm.
NanoGC embeds senior, Big-Law-trained attorneys as your General Counsel, an AI-native firm that pairs partner-level judgment with modern tooling, so you get the speed of in-house without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.
Senior legal judgment, before you can hire for it.
Most companies outgrow outside counsel long before they can justify a full-time General Counsel. That in-between stage, when you need GC-level judgment but can't carry the cost, is where legal risk compounds fastest. Contracts pile up. Regulatory exposure grows. Board questions get harder to answer without saying "let me check with our lawyers."
We built NanoGC for that exact gap. Senior attorneys with Big-Law training and in-house experience, embedded in your team, not billing by the hour from across town. The attorney you talk to on Day 1 is the one who sits in your board meeting on Day 100.
And we're AI-native by design. We use modern AI tooling across research, contract review, and diligence to move at the speed your business actually runs, so you get partner-level judgment with the turnaround of an embedded team, not the lag of a traditional firm.
From first call to embedded counsel.
We don't drop a generic retainer on your desk. Every engagement starts with understanding your business, scoping it honestly, and proposing the right tier, then we get to work.
Intake
Tell us what you're facing. A short intake call and document review map your entities, jurisdictions, active matters, and board cadence, so we understand the business before we ever quote it.
Scoping
We place you on the right tier, Anchor, Core, Command, or Enterprise, based on organizational complexity, regulatory environment, and active workstreams, not headcount or revenue alone.
Proposal
You receive a single, tier-based proposal with a clear monthly scope, response-time commitments, and deliverables, structured as a flat retainer or scoped hourly engagement, whichever fits your needs.
Engagement
We execute against an agreed Scope of Work as your embedded GC. As your needs grow, we revisit scope proactively, a natural growth conversation, never a surprise after the fact.
Full-spectrum coverage for a modern legal function.
Fractional General Counsel
The GC function, owned and run at partner level. Board meetings, outside counsel management, legal strategy, contract negotiation, compliance, and governance, on a clear, scoped engagement.
Regulatory & compliance
We build and run the compliance program your stage and industry require, CCPA, GDPR, HIPAA, data privacy, and sector-specific regulation, so exposure shrinks instead of compounding quietly.
Startup & Venture Legal
From incorporation onward, entity formation, SAFEs and convertible notes, Seed and Series A and later-stage financings, cap table management, option plans, governance, and commercial contracts.
AI Governance
As an AI-native firm, we build AI governance programs for companies deploying AI in production, model evaluation frameworks, vendor AI contract terms, EU AI Act readiness, and state AI laws. Practical frameworks, not compliance theater.
Strategic Legal Advisory
Partner-level advisory on your highest-stakes decisions, M&A due diligence and deal strategy, board governance, fiduciary duty analysis, crisis response, and internal investigations.
Litigation Management
Disciplined litigation oversight without runaway spend, pre-litigation risk assessment, outside counsel selection and management, settlement strategy, and trial-prep supervision.
Built for ambitious companies at every stage.
Growth-stage startups
Seed, Series A, and later-stage companies. Too lean for a full-time GC, too complex for one-off outside counsel. We embed as the legal function, product, commercial, fundraising, compliance, and scale with you.
Mid-market companies
$25M–$500M revenue. In-house legal but no GC, or a GC who needs senior bandwidth. We augment the team with Big-Law-trained partners on negotiations, litigation oversight, and regulatory strategy.
Enterprise organizations
Venture-backed platforms, healthcare systems, regulated industries. A senior voice on specific matters, AI governance, M&A due diligence, fund formation, board-level strategy, without adding headcount.
Operators who've worked with us.
“Eugene is the 10x lawyer. When you're building something as complicated as a digital health platform, you need someone who thinks through the business with you in real time. He's the reason we can move fast without breaking things legally.”
“Eugene and the NanoGC team are the reason I can actually sleep at night. When I hit a serious data and vendor compliance issue, within one conversation they had reframed the risk, mapped a path forward, and made me feel like I had a real legal team in my corner.”
“NanoGC has been a critical part of AE's operations. Eugene isn't a vendor we engage when something goes wrong, he's embedded in how we run and grow. That's the difference between outside counsel and a true legal partner.”
Your organization deserves a GC who knows your business.
A 30-minute intro. We diagnose what you actually need, fractional GC, project counsel, or specialty support, and scope a 90-day plan before you commit.
